Psychological predictors of problem mobile phone use.

Bianchi A, Phillips JG. · 2005

Researchers at Monash University studied personality traits that predict problematic mobile phone use, developing a scale to measure phone addiction-like behaviors. They found that younger people, extraverts, and those with low self-esteem were most likely to develop problematic phone use patterns. This matters because these same groups are at higher risk for dangerous behaviors like texting while driving.

Association between cellular-telephone calls and motor vehicle collisions.

Redelmeier DA, Tibshirani RJ · 1997

Researchers analyzed phone records from 699 drivers who had been in car accidents to see if cell phone use increased crash risk. They found that drivers were four times more likely to crash while using their phone compared to when they weren't, with hands-free devices offering no safety advantage over handheld phones. The study suggests that the mental distraction of phone conversations, not just physical handling, creates the danger.

Mobile phone use and stress, sleep disturbances, and symptoms of depression among young adults - a prospective cohort study

Thomée S, Härenstam A, Hagberg M · 2011

Swedish researchers followed over 4,000 young adults for one year to examine whether mobile phone use patterns affect mental health. They found that heavy phone users were more likely to experience stress, sleep problems, and depression symptoms, with the strongest effects among those who felt pressured to always be accessible. The study suggests that how we use our phones psychologically matters as much as how often we use them.

Mobile phone use and stress, sleep disturbances, and symptoms of depression among young adults--a prospective cohort study.

Thomée S, Härenstam A, Hagberg M. · 2011

Swedish researchers followed over 4,000 young adults for one year to examine how mobile phone use affects mental health. They found that heavy phone users were significantly more likely to develop stress, sleep problems, and depression symptoms compared to light users. The strongest predictor wasn't just frequency of use, but feeling stressed about being constantly accessible through their phone.

Cell phone-induced failures of visual attention during simulated driving.

Strayer DL, Drews FA, Johnston WA. · 2003

Researchers at the University of Utah studied how hands-free cell phone conversations affect driving performance using eye-tracking technology and simulated driving tests. They found that phone conversations caused drivers to miss important visual information like braking vehicles and roadside billboards, even when their eyes were looking directly at these objects. This suggests that cell phone use creates a form of 'inattention blindness' where the brain fails to process visual information despite the eyes seeing it.

SAR / Device Absorption796 citations

Development of realistic high-resolution whole-body voxel models of Japanese adult males and females of average height and weight, and application of models to radio-frequency electromagnetic-field dosimetry.

Nagaoka T et al. · 2004

Japanese researchers created the first detailed computer models of Asian adults to study how radio frequency radiation is absorbed by the human body. These high-resolution models, built from MRI scans, can calculate specific absorption rate (SAR) - the amount of RF energy absorbed per kilogram of body tissue - for frequencies up to 3 GHz, which includes cell phone radiation. The models provide critical data for understanding how different body types absorb electromagnetic energy differently.

Brain tumour risk in relation to mobile telephone use: results of the INTERPHONE international case-control study.

The INTERPHONE Study Group. · 2010

Researchers studied brain tumor risk in over 5,000 people across 13 countries, comparing mobile phone users to non-users. They found no overall increased risk of brain tumors from mobile phone use, but did see a 40% higher risk of glioma (a type of brain cancer) in the heaviest users who reported over 1,640 hours of cumulative call time. However, the researchers noted that recall bias and other methodological issues prevent drawing firm conclusions about causation.

Effect of cell phone usage on semen analysis in men attending infertility clinic: an observational study.

Agarwal A, Deepinder F, Sharma RK, Ranga G, Li J. · 2008

Researchers studied 361 men at an infertility clinic and found that cell phone use was linked to declining sperm quality. Men who used phones more than 4 hours daily had significantly worse sperm count, movement, survival, and normal shape compared to non-users. This suggests that the radiofrequency radiation from cell phones may be contributing to male fertility problems.

Cellular-telephone use and brain tumors.

Inskip PD et al. · 2001

Researchers examined 782 brain tumor patients and 799 controls to see if cell phone use increases brain tumor risk. They found no increased risk of glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma among people who used cell phones for more than 100 hours or regularly for five or more years. However, the study period (1994-1998) means it couldn't assess risks from long-term heavy use or tumors that take decades to develop.

Single- and double-strand DNA breaks in rat brain cells after acute exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation

Lai H, Singh NP · 1996

Researchers exposed rats to radiofrequency radiation at 2450 MHz (similar to microwave oven frequencies) for 2 hours and found significant DNA damage in brain cells 4 hours later. Both single-strand and double-strand DNA breaks increased after exposure to radiation levels producing a whole-body SAR of 1.2 W/kg. This suggests that RF radiation can directly damage genetic material in brain tissue or impair the brain's ability to repair DNA damage.

Profiles in driver distraction: effects of cell phone conversations on younger and older drivers.

Strayer DL, Drews FA. · 2004

University of Utah researchers studied how hands-free cell phone conversations affect driving performance in both younger and older adults using driving simulators. They found that phone conversations made reactions 18% slower, increased following distance by 12%, and doubled the number of rear-end collisions for drivers of all ages. The impairment was so significant that young drivers talking on phones performed as poorly as older drivers who weren't using phones at all.

Cognitive load and detection thresholds in car following situations: safety implications for using mobile (cellular) telephones while driving.

Lamble D, Kauranen T, Laakso M, Summala H · 1999

Researchers tested 19 drivers on a real highway to see how mobile phone use affects their ability to react when the car ahead brakes. They found that both hands-free phone conversations and manual dialing delayed drivers' brake reaction times by about 0.5 seconds and reduced their collision avoidance time by nearly 1 second. This demonstrates that hands-free phone options don't eliminate the safety risks of mobile phone use while driving.

Mobile phone radiation induces reactive oxygen species production and DNA damage in human spermatozoa in vitro.

De Iuliis GN, Newey RJ, King BV, Aitken RJ. · 2009

Researchers exposed human sperm cells to radiofrequency radiation at the same frequency used by mobile phones (1.8 GHz) for 24 hours in laboratory conditions. They found that as radiation levels increased, sperm became less mobile and viable, while also showing increased DNA damage and harmful cellular stress. This suggests that mobile phone radiation could potentially affect male fertility and even the health of future children.

Lymphomas in E mu-Pim1 transgenic mice exposed to pulsed 900 MHZ electromagnetic fields.

Repacholi et al. · 1997

Scientists exposed genetically cancer-prone mice to 900 MHz radiofrequency fields (similar to cell phone signals) for 30 minutes twice daily for up to 18 months. The exposed mice developed lymphoma (a type of cancer) at 2.4 times the rate of unexposed mice. This suggests that cell phone-type radiation may accelerate cancer development in those already genetically susceptible.

Non-thermal activation of the hsp27/p38MAPK stress pathway by mobile phone radiation in human endothelial cells: Molecular mechanism for cancer- and blood-brain barrier-related effects.

Leszczynski D, Joenväärä S, Reivinen J, Kuokka R · 2002

Researchers exposed human blood vessel cells to 900 MHz mobile phone radiation for one hour and found it activated stress response pathways without heating the cells. The radiation triggered changes in heat shock protein-27 (hsp27), a protein that helps cells survive stress but may also interfere with natural cell death processes that prevent cancer. The researchers suggest this cellular stress response could potentially contribute to brain cancer development and blood-brain barrier problems if it occurs repeatedly over time.

Researchers exposed human sperm samples to cell phone radiation for one hour and compared them to unexposed samples from the same men. The exposed sperm showed significantly reduced movement and survival rates, plus increased oxidative stress (cellular damage from harmful molecules). This suggests that men who keep their phones in their pants pockets during calls might be harming their fertility.

Acute low-intensity microwave exposure increases DNA single-strand breaks in rat brain cells.

Lai H, Singh NP, · 1995

Researchers exposed rats to microwave radiation at levels similar to cell phone use and found that it caused DNA breaks in brain cells. The damage appeared 4 hours after exposure, even at relatively low power levels (0.6 W/kg). This suggests that microwave radiation can damage the genetic material in brain cells at exposure levels considered 'safe' by current standards.

Magnetic-field-induced DNA strand breaks in brain cells of the rat.

Lai H, Singh NP · 2004

Researchers exposed rats to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (the type from power lines) at levels commonly found in homes and workplaces. After 24-48 hours of exposure, they found significant DNA damage in brain cells, with longer exposure causing more damage. The study suggests this damage occurs through iron-mediated free radical formation, potentially leading to brain cell death.

Effect of cellular telephone conversations and other potential interference on reaction time in a braking response.

Consiglio W, Driscoll P, Witte M, Berg WP. · 2003

Researchers tested how phone conversations affect reaction time when braking by having 22 participants use a driving simulator under different conditions. They found that talking on either handheld or hands-free phones slowed reaction times compared to no distraction, while listening to music did not. This suggests phone conversations create cognitive interference that could impair driving safety regardless of whether you use your hands.

Electromagnetic fields, such as those from mobile phones, alter regional cerebral blood flow and sleep and waking EEG.

HuberR et al. · 2002

Swiss researchers exposed people to 30 minutes of cell phone radiation (900 MHz) and then measured brain blood flow and sleep patterns. They found that pulse-modulated EMF exposure increased blood flow to the prefrontal cortex and altered brainwave patterns during both wake and sleep states. This demonstrates that cell phone radiation can directly influence brain physiology in measurable ways.

Effect of a 915-MHz simulated mobile phone signal on cognitive function in man.

Preece et al. · 1999

Researchers tested whether mobile phone signals at 915 MHz affect brain function by having 36 people perform cognitive tests while exposed to simulated phone radiation. They found that exposure made people react faster on choice reaction time tests, but had no effect on memory tasks. The faster reaction times suggest the phone signals may be affecting a specific brain region called the angular gyrus, which processes visual and speech information.

Impact of radio frequency electromagnetic radiation on DNA integrity in the male germline.

Aitken RJ, Bennetts LE, Sawyer D, Wiklendt AM, King BV. · 2005

Researchers exposed mice to cell phone-level radiation (900 MHz) for 12 hours daily over a week and examined sperm DNA for damage. While the mice appeared healthy and sperm counts looked normal, detailed genetic analysis revealed significant DNA damage in both the mitochondria (cellular powerhouses) and nuclear DNA of sperm cells. This suggests that radiofrequency radiation can harm genetic material in reproductive cells even when other measures appear normal.

The relationship between cell phone use, physical and sedentary activity, and cardiorespiratory fitness in a sample of U.S. college students.

Lepp A, Barkley JE, Sanders GJ, Rebold M, Gates P. · 2013

Researchers studied college students to examine how cell phone use affects physical fitness and activity levels. They found that students who used their phones more had significantly lower cardiorespiratory fitness, even after accounting for other factors like body fat and exercise motivation. The study suggests this happens because heavy phone users often skip physical activities to use their devices, and phone use tends to be part of a broader pattern of sedentary behavior.

Exposure to pulsed high-frequency electromagnetic field during waking affects human sleep EEG.

Huber R et al. · 2000

Swiss researchers exposed healthy young men to cell phone radiation (900 MHz) for 30 minutes before bedtime and monitored their brain activity during sleep. They found that the radiation exposure altered brainwave patterns during deep sleep, with specific frequency bands showing increased activity that persisted hours after the exposure ended. This demonstrates that cell phone radiation can cause measurable changes to brain function that outlast the actual exposure period.

Swedish researchers studied 209 brain tumor patients and 425 healthy controls to examine whether cell phone use increases brain cancer risk. While overall cancer rates appeared similar between phone users and non-users, the study found a concerning pattern: brain tumors were 2.4 times more likely to occur on the same side of the head where people held their phones. This suggests that radiation from cell phones may cause tumors specifically in the brain areas closest to the device.

Turkish researchers exposed rats to 900 MHz mobile phone radiation for one hour daily over seven days and found significant oxidative stress damage in brain tissue. The damage included increased harmful molecules and decreased protective antioxidant enzymes. However, when rats were pre-treated with Ginkgo biloba extract, this brain damage was completely prevented, suggesting that antioxidants may protect against EMF-induced cellular harm.

Mechanism of a short-term ERK activation by electromagnetic fields at mobile phone frequency.

Friedman J, Kraus S, Hauptman Y, Schiff Y, Seger R. · 2007

Researchers studied how cell phone radiation affects cellular signaling pathways within cells. They discovered that mobile phone frequencies trigger a specific chain reaction: the radiation causes cells to produce reactive oxygen species (free radicals), which then activate enzymes that release growth factors, ultimately switching on cellular processes that control gene expression. This was the first study to map out the complete molecular pathway showing how non-thermal cell phone radiation directly affects cellular function.

Researchers measured EMF exposure from cell phone towers in the bedrooms of 365 people living nearby and tested their health and thinking abilities. Even though the radiation levels were extremely low (far below safety guidelines), people closer to the towers reported more headaches and showed changes in mental performance. This suggests that even very weak EMF exposure from cell towers might affect how people feel and think.

Researchers exposed sperm samples from 27 men to radiation from an active 900 MHz cell phone and compared them to unexposed samples. The cell phone radiation significantly reduced sperm movement, with fewer sperm swimming rapidly or slowly, and more sperm becoming completely immobile. This suggests that the electromagnetic fields from cell phones can directly impair male fertility by damaging sperm function.

Swedish researchers studied whether long-term mobile phone use increases brain tumor risk by comparing 644 brain tumor patients with 674 healthy controls over a period when many people had used phones for more than 10 years. They found no increased risk of glioma or meningioma brain tumors, even among the heaviest users. The study actually showed slightly lower tumor rates among phone users, though this protective effect was likely due to study limitations rather than phones preventing cancer.

German researchers studied how cell phone radiation affects sleep quality in healthy adults. They found that exposure to pulsed electromagnetic fields from digital mobile phones caused people to fall asleep faster but significantly reduced REM sleep (the deep sleep stage crucial for memory and learning). Brain wave analysis also showed abnormal electrical activity patterns during REM sleep, suggesting the radiation was disrupting normal brain function during this critical sleep phase.

Exposure of the dorsal root ganglion in rats to pulsed radiofrequency currents activates dorsal horn lamina I and II neurons.

Higuchi Y et al. · 2002

Researchers exposed nerve clusters (dorsal root ganglia) in rats to pulsed radiofrequency energy at 500 kHz for 2 minutes and found it activated pain-processing neurons in the spinal cord. Importantly, this neural activation occurred even when the RF exposure was kept at body temperature (38°C), showing the effect wasn't caused by tissue heating. This suggests that RF energy can directly stimulate nerve pathways involved in pain processing.

Dialling and driving: factors influencing intentions to use a mobile phone while driving.

Walsh SP, White KM, Hyde MK, Watson B. · 2008

Researchers studied what psychological factors influence people's intentions to use mobile phones while driving, examining attitudes, social pressure, and risk perceptions across different driving scenarios. They found that personal attitudes consistently predicted phone use intentions while driving, and pressure from others influenced some decisions, but surprisingly, risk perception didn't make people choose safer driving behaviors. This suggests that reducing distracted driving requires multiple approaches targeting different psychological motivations.

They found that while phone conversations initially interfere with driving skills, drivers gradually adapt and the interference diminishes with practice, though older drivers and more complex phone tasks still showed greater impairment. This suggests the cognitive load from phone use while driving can be partially managed through experience, but significant risks remain.

They found that heavy phone users (more than 2,000 hours of lifetime use) had significantly higher rates of malignant brain tumors, with analog phones showing the highest risk at nearly 6 times normal rates. The risk was greatest when tumors developed on the same side of the head where people typically held their phone.

Symptoms experienced in connection with mobile phone use.

Oftedal G, Wilen J, Sandstrom M, Mild KH · 2000

Researchers surveyed 17,000 mobile phone users across Norway and Sweden to document symptoms people experienced while using their phones. They found that 31% of Norwegian users and 13% of Swedish users reported at least one symptom connected to phone use, with the most common being warmth around the ear, burning facial sensations, and headaches that typically began during calls and lasted up to 2 hours. While nearly half of those experiencing symptoms took steps to reduce them, few sought medical care, suggesting these effects were bothersome but not considered serious health problems by users.

Use of laptop computers connected to internet through Wi-Fi decreases human sperm motility and increases sperm DNA fragmentation.

Avendaño C, Mata A, Sanchez Sarmiento CA, Doncel GF. · 2012

Researchers exposed sperm samples from 29 healthy men to WiFi-connected laptops for 4 hours and found significant damage compared to unexposed samples. The WiFi exposure reduced sperm's ability to swim properly and caused DNA fragmentation (genetic damage) without generating heat. This suggests that men who regularly use WiFi laptops on their laps may be harming their fertility.

Cellular telephone use and risk of acoustic neuroma

Christensen HC et al. · 2004

Danish researchers studied 106 people with acoustic neuroma (a non-cancerous brain tumor near the ear) and 212 healthy controls to see if cell phone use increased tumor risk. They found no increased risk of developing these tumors, even among people who used cell phones for 10 years or more. Importantly, tumors didn't occur more often on the side of the head where people typically held their phones.

Acute mobile phone operation affects neural function in humans.

Croft R et al. · 2002

Australian researchers measured brain activity in 24 people while they used active mobile phones for three 20-minute sessions. They found that phone use changed brain wave patterns in multiple ways - decreasing slow waves on the right side of the brain, increasing faster waves in the back, and altering how the brain responds to sounds. The changes got stronger the longer people were exposed, suggesting that phone radiation directly affects how our brains function.

Effects of 900-MHz electromagnetic field emitted from cellular phone on brain oxidative stress and some vitamin levels of guinea pigs.

Meral I et al. · 2007

Researchers exposed guinea pigs to cell phone radiation (900 MHz) for 12 hours daily over 30 days and found significant oxidative stress in brain tissue. The radiation increased harmful compounds called free radicals while depleting the brain's natural antioxidant defenses. This suggests that prolonged cell phone exposure may damage brain cells through oxidative stress, the same process linked to aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

Mobile phone use and risk of glioma in 5 North European countries.

Lahkola A et al. · 2007

Researchers studied 1,522 brain cancer patients and 3,301 healthy people across five European countries to see if mobile phone use increases glioma risk. Overall, they found no increased cancer risk from regular phone use, but discovered a 39% higher risk when people used phones for more than 10 years on the same side of their head where the tumor developed. This suggests that long-term, localized exposure to the brain may pose risks that deserve further investigation.

Microwave radiation can alter protein conformation without bulk heating.

de Pomerai DI et al. · 2003

Researchers exposed proteins to microwave radiation at very low power levels (15-20 milliwatts per kilogram) and found the radiation could change the proteins' shape and cause them to clump together, even without any measurable heating. The study showed that microwaves can directly alter protein structure through non-thermal mechanisms, which could explain why living cells sometimes respond to microwave exposure as if they're experiencing heat stress.

Effects of electromagnetic field emitted by cellular phones on the EEG during a memory task.

Krause CM et al. · 2000

Finnish researchers exposed 16 people to 902 MHz cell phone radiation while they performed memory tasks, measuring brain activity through EEG recordings. They found that cell phone radiation significantly altered brain wave patterns during memory encoding and retrieval, even though it didn't affect resting brain activity. This suggests that EMF exposure specifically disrupts the brain's electrical activity when it's actively working on cognitive tasks.

Cellular phone use and risk of benign and malignant parotid gland tumors--a nationwide case-control study.

Sadetzki S et al. · 2008

Israeli researchers studied 460 people with parotid gland tumors (located near the ear) and compared their cell phone use to 1,266 healthy controls. While overall cell phone use didn't increase tumor risk, heavy users who held phones directly to their heads showed a 58% higher risk of developing tumors on the same side where they used their phone. This suggests that intensive cell phone use without hands-free devices may increase risk of tumors in glands near where the phone is held.

Mobile phones, cordless phones and the risk for brain tumours.

Hardell L, Carlberg M. · 2009

Swedish researchers analyzed brain tumor patients and found that people who used mobile phones or cordless phones on the same side of their head where tumors developed had significantly higher cancer risks. The risk was especially pronounced for those who started using wireless phones before age 20, with mobile phone users showing a 5.2-fold increased risk for astrocytoma (a type of brain cancer). The study also found that brain cancer rates in Sweden increased by over 2% annually during the 2000s, coinciding with widespread wireless phone adoption.

Effects of acute exposure to the radiofrequency fields of cellular phones on plasma lipid peroxide and antioxidase activities in human erythrocytes.

Moustafa YM, Moustafa RM, Belacy A, Abou-El-Ela SH, Ali FM · 2001

Researchers had 12 healthy men carry cell phones in their pockets for up to 4 hours and measured markers of oxidative stress in their blood. They found that even phones in standby mode significantly increased harmful lipid peroxides (cellular damage markers) and reduced the activity of protective antioxidant enzymes. This suggests that cell phone radiation creates harmful free radicals in the body, potentially damaging cells through oxidative stress.

Researchers exposed rats to cell phone radiation for 20 minutes daily over one month to examine effects on male fertility. They found no changes in sperm count, sperm quality, or testicular tissue structure compared to unexposed rats. The study suggests that short-term cell phone exposure at typical power levels may not immediately harm male reproductive health.

Australian researchers analyzed police crash data to understand how distractions affect drivers of different ages. They found that all drivers are more vulnerable to distractions inside their vehicles (like cell phones) than outside distractions, but age significantly influences how these in-vehicle distractions increase crash risk. This research provides crucial evidence about the brain's ability to handle multiple tasks while driving varies by age group.

Distribution of RF energy emitted by mobile phones in anatomical structures of the brain.

Cardis E et al. · 2008

Researchers measured how radio frequency energy from mobile phones distributes throughout the brain by testing 110 different phone models. They found that 97-99% of the RF energy is absorbed in the brain hemisphere closest to the phone, with 50-60% concentrated in the temporal lobe (the area above your ear). This uneven distribution pattern was consistent across different phone types and suggests that if mobile phones pose cancer risks, brain tumors would most likely develop in these high-absorption areas.

Differences in energy absorption between heads of adults and children in the near field of sources.

Schonborn F, Burkhardt M, Kuster N · 1998

Researchers used computer simulations to compare how much cell phone radiation is absorbed by children's heads versus adults' heads at 900 MHz and 1,800 MHz frequencies. They found no significant differences in radiation absorption between children and adults, contradicting earlier studies that suggested children absorb more radiation. This finding has important implications for safety standards, which are currently based only on adult head models.

British researchers investigated cancer rates around a major TV and radio transmitter in Sutton Coldfield, England, studying 13 years of cancer registry data within a 10-kilometer radius. They found an 83% increased risk of adult leukemia within 2 kilometers of the transmitter, with cancer risk declining significantly as distance from the transmitter increased. This pattern remained consistent across different time periods and appeared independent of an initially reported cancer cluster.

Swedish researchers studied 1,617 brain tumor patients and compared their cell phone use to healthy controls. They found that people who used older analog cell phones had a 30% increased risk of brain tumors overall, with the risk jumping to 70% when the tumor developed on the same side of the head where they held the phone. The pattern was strongest for acoustic neuromas (a type of brain tumor near the ear), where analog phone users showed a 340% increased risk.

Danish researchers followed over 13,000 children from pregnancy through age 7 to study whether mothers' cell phone use during pregnancy and children's own phone use affected behavior. They found that children exposed to cell phones both before birth and after had 80% higher odds of behavioral problems like hyperactivity and emotional difficulties. While the researchers noted other factors could explain this connection, the findings raise concerns given how widely cell phones are used.

Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields promote in vitro neurogenesis via upregulation of Ca(v)1-channel activity.

Piacentini R, Ripoli C, Mezzogori D, Azzena GB, Grassi C. · 2008

Researchers exposed neural stem cells from newborn mice to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (50 Hz at 1 mT) and found that this exposure significantly promoted the development of these cells into mature neurons. The electromagnetic fields worked by increasing the activity of specific calcium channels in the cells, which are crucial for brain cell development. This suggests that power-frequency EMF exposure can directly influence how brain cells develop and mature.

Researchers studied how pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment relieves pain in rats with induced inflammation. They found that PRF at both 37°C and 42°C significantly reduced pain by activating the body's natural pain-blocking pathways in the brain and spinal cord. This research helps explain why PRF therapy works for chronic pain conditions in humans.

Researchers tested 980 pacemaker patients with five different types of cellular phones to see if the phones interfered with their heart devices. They found that phones caused some type of interference in 20 percent of tests, but serious problems only occurred in 1.7 percent of cases when phones were held directly over the pacemaker. When phones were used normally at the ear, there was no clinically significant interference.

Researchers exposed cells to 960 MHz radiofrequency radiation (similar to cell phone signals) at different temperatures to test whether heat alone causes biological effects. They found that RF radiation altered cell growth patterns at both higher and lower temperatures, proving that the effects weren't simply due to heating. This challenges the mainstream assumption that only thermal effects from wireless radiation can impact living cells.

British researchers studied cancer rates around 20 high-power TV and radio transmitters from 1974-1986, examining over 3,000 adult leukemia cases within 10 kilometers. They found only a weak decline in adult leukemia risk with distance from transmitters, with no increased cancer risk within 2 kilometers of the towers. This large-scale study failed to replicate earlier findings from a single transmitter site, suggesting that broadcast towers may not significantly increase cancer risk in nearby communities.

Mobile phone use and risk of brain neoplasms and other cancers: prospective study

Benson VS et al. · 2013

British researchers followed nearly 800,000 middle-aged women for 7 years to see if mobile phone use increased their risk of brain tumors and other cancers. They found no increased risk for most brain tumors, including the most common types (glioma and meningioma), but did find that women who used phones for 10+ years had more than double the risk of developing acoustic neuroma, a rare tumor of the hearing nerve. This large study provides mixed evidence about mobile phone safety, with reassurance for most brain cancers but concern for one specific type.

Poysti L, Rajalin S, Summala H · 2005

Researchers surveyed 834 Finnish drivers who owned mobile phones to understand who uses phones while driving and what hazards they experience. They found that older drivers, women, and those with high safety motivation were more likely to avoid phone use entirely while driving, while younger drivers and heavy phone users reported more driving hazards. The study concluded that drivers are making strategic decisions to control phone-related risks, which may explain why accident rates haven't increased proportionally with mobile phone adoption.

Swedish researchers studied whether mobile phone use increases the risk of acoustic neuroma, a type of brain tumor that develops on the nerve connecting the ear to the brain. They found no increased risk for short-term phone use, but discovered that people who used mobile phones for 10 or more years had nearly a 4-fold higher risk of developing tumors on the same side of their head where they held their phone. This suggests that long-term mobile phone exposure may increase brain tumor risk, particularly with extended use patterns.

Researchers used MRI-based head models to compare how cell phone radiation is absorbed in children's brains versus adults' brains. They found that children absorb significantly more radiation in key brain regions like the cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus (over 3 dB higher), with bone marrow showing even greater increases (over 10 dB higher). This happens because children's smaller heads place these tissues closer to the phone, even though overall head absorption remains similar between age groups.
