Population density implicitly involves specific distances between living individuals who exhibit biophysical forces and energies. Objective was to investigate major data bases of cancer incidence and population data to help understand the emergent properties of diseases that become apparent only when large populations and areas are considered. Corr...

Background Since 1980 we have assessed individuals who report electromagnetic sensitivity and “hearing voices” who do not display formal thought disorder but are clearly distressed by their experiences. Their intellectual levels and memory scores are average to above average with no neuropsychological impairment although right prefrontal deficits h...

The discrepancy between the Compton wavelength of a proton and an electron has been assumed to reflect some shared variable with their respective masses. However this discrepancy of 1.83·10 3 is remarkably similar to the geometric constant (21.3 π 4 ) derived from the product of four dimensional space- time for closed circular boundaries. This same...

We compared the small quantitative changes (range) in G over repeated measures (days) with recently improved methods of determinations and those recorded over 20 years ago. The range in the Newtonian constant of gravitation G is usually in the order of 400 ppm as reflected in experimentally-determined values. The moderate strength negative correlat...

People who report objects moving in their presence, unusual sounds, glows around other people, and multiple sensed presences but do not meet the criteria for psychiatric disorders have been shown to exhibit electrical anomalies over the right temporal lobes. This article reports the striking quantitative electroencephalography, sLORETA results, and...

Major explanations for the potential physical changes at death are explored quantitatively. MacDougall's weight loss measurements of dying patients are examined as an artifact of respiratory burst phenomena and as a potential variant of entanglement. The death flash, when considered as an integrated conversion of membrane potentials into biophoton...

To measure the effect of exposure to a specific spatial-temporal, hysiologically-patterned electromagnetic field presented using different geometric configurations on the growth of experimental tumours in mice. C57b male mice were inoculated subcutaneously with B16-BL6 melanoma cells in two blocks of experiments separated by six months (to control...

The aim of the study was to discern if one natural (pregnancy) and one man made (patterned magnetic field) treatment could reduce the incidence of neuronal anomalies following very mild head trauma. For several weeks following an impact of mechanical energy to the skull that was sufficient to stun about 50% of female rats, conspicuous shrunken, dar...

The aim of this study was to discern if a single brief episode of hypoxia during infancy would result in long-term changes in hippocampal organization and behavior. In a split-litter design male and female rats were exposed to either 1 min of carbon dioxide or control conditions on either postnatal day 8 or 18. When tested as adults there were no s...

The human brain is the locus of all human experiences. The substantial microstructural and neuroelectrical differences between the two cerebral hemispheres predicts two major classes of mystical experiences which involve the sensed presence and the out-of-body experience. Their occurrence and their attributions to cosmic origins have been reported...

Approximately 1 year after rats were seized as young adults with lithium (3 mEq/kg) and pilocarpine (30 mg/kg) and given acepromazine or ketamine, 18 blood measures, wet tissue weights, and detailed damage scores for 107 brain structures were completed. Compared with normal and ketamine-treated rats, acepromazine-treated seized rats (total n=54) ha...

Extreme obesity slowly develops in female rats over the months following seizures induced by a single systemic injection of lithium and pilocarpine if the resulting limbic seizures are treated with the atypical neuroleptic acepromazine (but not with ketamine). To discern the contributions from food consumption, water consumption, and (daytime and n...

To test the feasibility that whole body exposure to structurally matched, physiologically patterned magnetic fields could reduce cellular injury within specific regions of the brain, young rats were seized with lithium and pilocarpine and then exposed to a sham field or to one of three computer-generated magnetic field patterns. They were digitized...

To discern changes in blood chemistry, cerebral sizes, and hippocampal cytomorphology in adult male and female albino Wistar rats that had been exposed during their entire prenatal development to one of two patterns of magnetic fields and one of four intensities: Very low 5 - 20 nT; low 30 - 50 nT; medium 90 - 580 nT; and high 590 nT to 1.2 microT....

More than 100 adult male and female albino Wistar rats that had been exposed during their entire prenatal development to one of two patterns of magnetic fields and one of four intensities (reference: 5 to 20 nT; low: 30 to 50 nT; medium: 90 to 580 nT; high: 590 nT to 1.2 microT) were tested for their capacity for two forms of classical conditioning...

While investigating the effects of weak complex magnetic fields upon neuroplasticity following induction of early epilepsy, an unprecedented increase in post-seizure mortality (76%) was observed for young rats that had been exposed perinatally to 7 Hz magnetic fields with maximum intensities around 5 nT. Pups exposed to less intense or more intense...

In a within-subject design adult male rats were exposed for 15 min once per day or night to one of two patterns of complex magnetic fields (0.5 to 1 micro T) rotated in space once every 2 s or 20 s through each of the three spatial dimensions and then simultaneously through all three dimensions. Open field behavior was then measured for ambulation,...

If all experiences are generated by brain activity, then experiences of God and spirits should also be produced by the appropriate cerebral stimulation. During the last 15 years experiments have shown that the sensed presence of a “Sentient Being” can be reliably evoked by very specific temporal patterns of weak (<1 microT) transcerebral magnetic f...

Seizures were induced in female Wistar albino rats at either 35 or 55 days of age with a single systemic injection of lithium (3 mEq/kg) and pilocarpine (30 mg/kg); the rats were then treated with the atypical neuroleptic acepromazine (25 mg/kg). These rats manifested progressive weight gain for the rest of their lives. The effect was conspicuous b...

The brains of adult rats, exposed prenatally to one of four intensities (between 10 nanoTesla and 1.2 microTesla) of either a frequency-modulated magnetic field or a complex sequenced field designed to affect brain development, were examined histologically. Although from each intensity some rats that had been exposed to the complex sequenced magnet...

Male rats were seized with lithium and pilocarpine and then injected within 30 min. with either acepromazine or ketamine. These rats as well as age-matched normal rats were observed daily for one year. The rats which had received the ketamine after the seizures were significantly heavier than either the normal rats or the other group of seized rats...

Exposure to sinusoidal (power-frequency) magnetic fields during prenatal development is implicated in adulthood behavioral impairments. However, the effects of prenatal exposure to weak-intensity, nonsinusoidal complex magnetic fields (CMFs), an increasingly common feature of the modern environment, have not been rigorously examined. In the present...

A total of 45 litters were exposed during their entire prenatal development to one of two complex patterns of magnetic fields whose strengths varied within one of four intensity ranges between 10 nT and 1,000 nT or to sham-field conditions. The litters exposed to the most complex pattern, composed of 50 200-msec. presentations of different pulses f...

In three separate experiments, groups (4/group) of male rats with limbic epilepsy were exposed for 80 min every 24 hr during the midscotophase for 24 successive days to sham-field conditions or to one of four complex patterns of magnetic fields whose average intensities ranged between 20 nT to 500 nT. The numbers of episodes of boxing, biting, moun...

Over a 24-day period the magnitude of the average, 24 hr., global geomagnetic activity was significantly correlated (r and rho about .40) with the average numbers of agonistic (biting) responses between midnight and 0100 hr. in a group of four males epileptic rats. Geomagnetic activity was not significantly correlated with quantitative measures of...
