View Original AbstractTen minutes of cell phone exposure caused no immediate hearing changes in healthy young adults, but long-term effects remain unstudied.
Plain English Summary
Researchers tested whether 10 minutes of cell phone exposure could immediately affect hearing in 30 young adults with normal hearing. They used sophisticated hearing tests before and after exposure, comparing real phone emissions to fake exposure. The study found no measurable changes in hearing ability or inner ear function after the brief exposure.
Study Details
The aim of the study was to assess potential changes in hearing function as a consequence of exposure to low-intensity EMF's produced by mobile phones at frequencies of 900 and 1800 MHz.
The within-subject study was performed on thirty volunteers (age 18-30 years) with normal hearing to...
Statistical analysis revealed no significant differences in the mean HTLs of PTA and mean shifts of ...
It could be concluded that a 10-min close exposure of EMFs emitted from a mobile phone had no immediate after-effect on measurements of HTL of PTA and TEOAEs in young human subjects and no measurable hearing deterioration was detected in our study.
