Thanks to the technology, mobile devices including cell phones have become an integral part of the modern life. Therefore, public concern pertaining to short-term and long-term possible adverse effects of using cell phone and electromagnetic radiation exposure of it is growing rapidly. There are various studies by which the positive and negative results have been demonstrated. The relationship ...

Abstract Introduction: Mobile phones create high-frequency electromagnetic fields around them when in use. The close proximity of mobile phones to the user’s head leads to the absorption of part of the electromagnetic waves into the head and the brain. Methods: We have elucidated the alteration in cognitive function of the male and female offspring rats, which were exposed to chronic mobi...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the use of cellular and cordless telephones as the risk factor for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). METHODS Male and female subjects aged 18-74 years living in Sweden were included during a period from 1 December 1999 to 30 April 2002. Controls were selected from the national population registry. Exposure to different agents was assessed by questionnaire. RESULTS In tota...

introduction : the  rapid development  of wireless telecommunication technologies  over the past decades, has led to significant changes in the exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fi elds. nowadays, people are continuously exposed to different sources of electromagnetic fi elds such as mobile phones, mobile base stations, cordless phones, wi-fi routers, and power lines. therefore,...

Background: Whether exposure to common electromagnetic fields affects human health adversely has been a controversial issue. The main goal of this study was to assess the role of 900 MHz microwave radiations with different specific absorption rates (SARs), emitted from some widely used cell phones, on the induction of adaptive response in male Balb/c mice after receiving a lethal dose of gamma ...

background: the rapidly increasing use of mobile phones has led to public concerns about possible health effects of these popular communication devices. this study is an attempt to investigate the effects of radiofrequency (rf) radiation produced by gsm mobile phones on the insulin release in rats. methods: forty two female adult sprague dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups. group1 w...

Mobile phone systems operate within the radio frequency section (30KHz 300GHz) of the electromagnetic spectrum, the microwaves. Some adverse effects reported from exposure to microwaves include physiological, neurological and cognitive changes, carcinomas, and other biological damage through heating effects. Although equivocal reports on their genotoxic/ carcinogenic potential exist, yet none h...

THE MAJORITY OF THE RADIOFREQUENCY ENERGY emitted by a cellular telephone is absorbed by the hand and head of the user. The total energy absorbed is a function of the specific absorption rate, duration of use, and the manner in which the phone is used. In addition to concerns about potential harmful effects of such exposure, such as the issue of risk of brain cancer, change in brain function re...
