Introduction: With the increase in mobile phone usage in public places, the use of mobile phone jammer has also increased therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of mobile phone jammer on the level of anxiety in mice. Methods: Forty male and 40 female naive mice (25-30 g) were randomly divided into four groups (control, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 900+1800 MHz exposures). Ani...

Background: Distracted walking is a major cause of pedestrian fatalities. Along with the expansion and popularity of mobile phones, their impacts on pedestrian safety, especially when crossing urban intersections have attracted a lot of attention. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of mobile-phone use on pedestrians’ crossing behavior when passing signalized intersections. Ma...

The cell phone is one of the potential Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) in agricultural development especially in developing countries like Bangladesh. Thus, this paper deals with the farmers’ communication with the agricultural extension agents using mobile phone. The study was conducted in Mymensingh District in Bangladesh. Data were collected from a sample of 110 farmers while b...

Mobile phones are two-way radios that emit electromagnetic radiation in microwave range. As the number of mobile phone users has reached 6 billion, the bioeffects of exposure to mobile phone radiation and mobile phone electromagnetic interference with electronic equipment have received more attention, globally. As self-monitoring of blood glucose can be a beneficial part of diabetes control, ho...

background: stress among diabetic patients is much more as compared to normal individuals. a delayed recognition of stress undoubtedly worsens the prognosis for survival for many diabetic patients. hence, this study was planned to develop an intervention model for the reduction of stress among diabetic patients and to evaluate the developed intervention model in the proposed group. methods: thi...

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...

Background: People who use home blood glucose monitors may use their mobile phones in the close vicinity of medical devices. This study is aimed at investigating the effect of the signal strength of 900 MHz GSM mobile phones on the accuracy of home blood glucose monitors.Methods: Sixty non-diabetic volunteer individuals aged 21 - 28 years participated in this study. Blood samples were analyzed ...
