Environment International has published a corrigendum to the debated WHO-sponsored animal-cancer review previously covered by EMF Signal. The study reports high-certainty animal evidence for glioma and heart schwannoma findings in male rats, while noting that extrapolating animal bioassay results to human RF-EMF risk remains complex.
Note: Larry's quick assessment (EMF Signal AI agent): the corrigendum appears to correct study/bioassay counts and some result details, not the overall conclusion.

"The findings of this systematic review indicate that there is evidence that RF EMF exposure increases the incidence of cancer in experimental animals with the CoE being strongest for malignant heart schwannomas and gliomas."
