View Original AbstractThis study found no heart rhythm changes after 30 days of cell phone radiation exposure, but researchers noted longer studies are needed.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed guinea pigs to cell phone radiation for 12 hours daily over 30 days and monitored their heart function using electrocardiograms (ECGs). The study found no significant changes in heart rhythm or electrical activity compared to unexposed animals. However, the researchers noted that longer exposure periods might be needed to detect potential cardiovascular effects from mobile phone radiation.
Study Details
This study was carried out to determine the effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) emitted by cellular phones (CPs) on electrocardiograms (ECGs) of guinea pigs.
A total of 30 healthy guinea pigs weighing 500-800 g were used. After 1 week of adaptation period, a...
It was found that 12 h day(-1) EMF exposure for 30 days did not have any significant effects on ECG ...
However, this issue needed to be further investigated in a variety of perspectives, such as longer duration of exposure to be able to elucidate the effects of mobile phone-induced EMFs on cardiovascular functions.
