Use of cellular or cordless telephones and the risk for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

This study adds important evidence to the growing body of research linking wireless phone radiation to cancer risk. What makes these findings particularly noteworthy is that they come from Sweden's comprehensive cancer registries, providing high-quality data on actual cancer cases rather than laboratory studies. The fact that cordless phones showed the strongest association with T-cell lymphoma is significant because these devices operate at similar frequencies to WiFi and are often used for longer periods than cell phones. While the researchers appropriately note the small numbers involved, the pattern of increased risk with longer exposure periods follows what we'd expect if radiation were truly causing these cancers. The reality is that T-cell lymphomas, though less common than B-cell types, are often more aggressive and harder to treat. This research suggests we should take wireless radiation exposure seriously, especially given that most people today have far more exposure than the study participants did in the early 2000s.
