Using the phone 15 hours a month over five years does not sound like much, but it is the amount of time, say scientists can increase the risk of developing certain types of cancer to the brain. Despite earlier studies that have revealed a link between cell phones and phone charge, Agence France-Presse reports that mobile phone users are exposed to a higher risk of developing glioma and meningioma tumors compared to people who do not use their phones much. The report is based on new research published in the British journal Occupational and Environmental Medicine.
The study is one in a long series of reports on possible links between cancer and cell phone use, and who will not solve the issues decisively. In 2011, the study for the Institute for Cancer Research found "no convincing evidence of an association" between cell phone use and brain tumors, but he said the long-term damage to health is still an option. Another study by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer, said that mobile emit radio frequency electromagnetic fields as "possibly carcinogenic to humans", and said that the increased risk of glioma. A 2011 National Institutes of Health study found that Wireless AV Audio Video TV Box Transmitter / Receiver use can alter brain activity, which could be sped up after less than an hour using a cell phone, but the long-term health risks and harmful side effects could not be determined. The official word on the website of the NIH that "there is a need for further research."
The new French study looked at 253 cases of glioma and 184 cases of meningioma. When compared with a group of healthy people, cell phone use increases the risk of both types of brain cancer, especially among telephone-intensive jobs as sales. Surprisingly, the study found that, if it comes to cancer, it is on the opposite side of the brain at the site where the phone is usually used; previously believed cancer developed on the same page.
Scientists say that one of the major problems in finding possible connection to get an exact idea about how to use the phone charger cable in real life by filtering out other carcinogenic behavior as smoking cigarettes. The rapidly changing mobile phone technology has also been taken into account. So the answer for now ... no answer. At least not to rest the case.
