This study aims to investigate the association between the natural level of blood biomarkers and electroencephalographic (EEG) markers. Resting EEG theta, alpha (ABP), beta, and gamma frequency band powers were selected as linear EEG markers indicating the level of EEG power, and Higuchi's fractal dimension (HFD) as a nonlinear EEG complexity marker reflecting brain temporal dynamics. The impact of seven different blood biomarkers, i.

The development of methods and markers for the early detection of mental disorders is an actual problem. Psychological questionnaires are the only tools for evaluating the symptoms of mental disorders in clinical practice today.

A wide variety of electroencephalographic (EEG) markers have been successfully used to assess different symptoms of mental disorders. Different EEG markers have demonstrated similar classification accuracy, raising a question of their independence.

The study combines the conclusions of analyses published in recent reviews on RF EMF effects and the data from RF EMF measurements in different countries to select the possible criteria and to derive proposals for the health protection limits on the level of RF EMF following the ALARA principle - as low as reasonably achievable.
Conclusions: Consideration of not only energetic but also coherent qualities of RF EMF leads to two different models for determining the impact of non-ionizing radiation on human health.

The current study is aimed to evaluate the effect of COVID-19 vaccine on human EEG and the persistence of the effect. Within a one-year-long resting EEG study period, the healthy male subject was administered two Comirnaty doses three weeks apart to prevent COVID-19. Fourteen recordings were acquired from the subject in one year: twelve reference and two post-vaccination recordings after administrating the second dose of Comirnaty.
