  Very mixed bag of the sources, several that look less than scientifically viable at a first glance (not judging whether they may have value along other dimensions). Others look more thorough/mainstream, like the very first one [0]. It would be interesting if someone who knows something about the field could evaluate how much this is worth paying attention to.

  EDIT: Wait, is this a trolling/hoax paper? 'A case series of 64 patient-reported outcomes subsequent to use of a silver-threaded cap designed to protect the brain and brain stem from microwave Electrosmog resulted in 90 % reporting "definite" or "strong" changes in their disease symptoms.'

  I should have checked first, this is posted on the author's own page. Here's someone assessing his ideas:

  This article looks like nonsense. The idea that the silver-threaded garments seemed so credible that use of a control group was deemed unethical, for example, is silly. This appears to be pseudoscientific blather.
