Changes in immune functions in peripheral blood leukocytes before (T0) and after 2 months (T2). a Chemotaxis Index (CI) of neutrophils (number of neutrophils on the filter); b Chemotaxis Index (CI) of lymphocytes (number of lymphocytes on the filter); c Phagocytic Index (PI) (number of latex beads ingested per 100 neutrophils); d NK cytotoxic activity (percentage of lysis of tumor cells); e Proliferation of lymphocytes in response to the mitogen Phytohaematogglutinin (PHA) in counts per minute (c.p.m.); f Concentrations (pg/mL) of IL-1β in plasma stimulate with LPS. “Placebo group” (N = 11) slept on normal beds; “Experimental group” (N = 20) used the HOGO system to avoid EMFs. a: P < 0.05; aa: P < 0.01; aaa: P < 0.001 with respect to the values obtained at T0; b: P < 0.05 with respect to the values obtained in "Placebo group" at T2
