Description:
Wireless antenna towers are proliferating in our communities. Like the smart grid and Wi-Fi, they represent EMF exposures which are very difficult to avoid. This map links articles, reports, audio-visual material and studies on the subject.
Description:
How do artificial non-ionizing electromagnetic fields interfere with biological tissue functions and structures? Many mechanisms have been proposed. They are not exclusive of each other. They are not equally well studied or supported. The effects on any given individual may depend upon the species, gender, health, age or tissue(s) involved.
This map lists many of the mechanisms proposed, with several links to demonstrate each one. An overview article has been linked under two mechanisms -- free radical damage, alteration of matrix -- on 05/06/12.
Description:
This dense map was prepared as an overview with links for researching pain in the hip and/or pelvic area. Therapies are linked for online research, but this map is not intended to substitute for an accurate and individual diagnosis or appropriate therapeutic recommendations. New links added 03/13/12.
Description:
Tinnitus is the perception of sound (ringing, hissing, buzzing) in one or both ears, not produced by an external source. It is a common complaint, affecting approximately one in six Americans. It ranges in severity from a mild background noise to a constant disabling disruption of daily function. Some cases begin following known stresses such as loud noises or medications, but many times the causes are unknown.
Many people sensitive to non-ionizing electromagnetic fields describe various ear sensations -- heat, throbbing, pain -- as well as tinnitus. Some studies have been performed and several mechanisms suggested. This map offers a linked overview of reports, mechanisms, studies and articles. References to microwave hearing -- a phenomenon separate from tinnitus -- have been removed from this map. More information on tinnitus has been added for clarification. 04/11/12.
