Mobile phone use and brain tumour risk: early warnings, early actions
Hardell L, Carlberg M • Reviews on Environmental Health (2024)
This review examines the epidemiological evidence on mobile phone use and brain tumour risk, including glioma and acoustic neuroma.
Key Findings
- Long-term users (>10 years) show increased glioma risk
- Ipsilateral use associated with higher risk
- Acoustic neuroma risk doubles with heavy use
Effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields on sperm quality
Adams JA, Galloway TS, Mondal D • Environment International (2023)
A systematic review and meta-analysis of experimental evidence on RF-EMF exposure and male fertility outcomes.
Key Findings
- RF-EMF exposure associated with decreased sperm motility
- DNA fragmentation increased in exposed samples
- Effects observed at SAR levels below ICNIRP guidelines
Screen time and sleep in children: a systematic review
Carter B, Rees P, Hale L • JAMA Pediatrics (2023)
Examines the relationship between screen-based media use and sleep outcomes in children and adolescents.
Key Findings
- Screen time associated with later bedtimes
- Shorter total sleep duration observed
- Blue light exposure disrupts circadian rhythm
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity: A critical review
Baliatsas C, Van Kamp I • Environmental Research (2022)
A comprehensive review of studies on idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF).
Key Findings
- Prevalence ranges from 1.5% to 13.3% globally
- Symptoms include headache, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating
- Double-blind provocation studies show mixed results
NTP cell phone radiation study: Final report
National Toxicology Program • NIH Publication (2018)
A large-scale study exposing rats and mice to cell phone RF radiation and examining tumor development.
Key Findings
- Clear evidence of tumors in hearts of male rats
- Some evidence of tumors in brains of male rats
- DNA damage observed in brain cells
