most popular sources for electromagnetic waves. however, there are many concerns regarding their biological effects on the body, especially the central nervous system. therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of cell phone radiation on histology of the cerebellar granular cells in the neonatal rat. materials and methods: we selected some wistar rats. then, we randomly divide...

Background: There is a great concern for the possible adverse effects of cell phones and noise waves and it looks these wave effects on the individuals’ health. Thus, the present study was conducted to examine the effect of cell phone waves, severity noise, and simultaneous effect of cell phone waves and severity noise on sperm motility and sexual hormones in adult male rats. Materials and Meth...

Introduction The negative health effects of electromagnetic radiation and psychological dependence are among the major consequences of widespread cell phone use in the general population, especially among adolescents. In this study, the relationship between cell phone use and sleep quality parameters was evaluated. Materials and Methods The study sample consisted of 820 students (305 males and ...

nowadays mobile phone is very popular, causing concern about the effect it has on people's health. parotid salivary glands are in close contact to cell phone while talking with the phone and the possibility of being affected by them. limited studies have evaluated the effect of cell phone use on the secretions of these glands; so this study was designed to investigate the effects of duration of...

Background: The use of a cell phone when driving has been recognized as a type of distraction worldwide. Addictive tendency to use technology, including cell phone use while driving may be a substantial problem for drivers and increasing risk of accidents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of drivers’ addiction to use a cell phone while driving.  Materials and Methods...

the effects of mobile phone exposure on humans, due to its potential health hazards, have become the focus of interest since many years ago. the effect of global system for mobile communications (gsm 900 mhz) on growth and proliferation rate of mesenchymal stem cells was assessed at the different distances and intensities of radiation. a subscriber identity module (sim) card was inserted to thi...

cell phone is now considered by its users as an entertainment and also a media in addition to serving them as a telecommunication instrument and having a cell phone has more implications for them. in this study, the author has tried to discuss these additional functions and implications through an online survey of a number of cell phone users regardless of its communicational functions  the res...

Background: There has been a growing claim that cell phone usage may have a detrimental effect on sperm chromatin. Infertile men possess anomalies in the composition of their sperm nuclei, displaying higher levels of loosely packaged chromatin and damaged DNA. In this study we examined the relationship of cell phone radiation and the protection effect of alpha_tocopherol on human sperm DNA. Mat...
