![]() den 22 december 2006, from Prof. Hardell SINDROME DE DOWN Y LEUCEMIA ASOCIADA A LA EXPOSICION A CEM Lo siento, es Navidad pero este Nuevo trabajo abre un debate antiguo, al menos para mí. Recuerdo, que hace un año en el juzgado de Estella (Navarra) actuando como perito de la acusación de unos vecinos afectados por un transformador de Iberdrola, incrustado debajo de sus viviendas, presenté un informe adicional. Este se basaba en un aspecto muy significativo del REFLEX, o la posible mayor genotoxicidad o mayor riesgo por ejemplo de cáncer entre aquellas personas con manifiestas alteraciones genéticas tal como la "Ataxia Teleangiectasia" Así, decía parte de mi informe sobre REFLEX: "De esta forma, CM inferiores a 100 microteslas, bajo las condiciones experimentales indicadas produjeron cambios significativos no solo en la estructura química del ADN (genotoxicidad), sino en la cinética de división o proliferación celular, apoptosis (muerte celular) o respuesta frente a factores de crecimiento, que dependía negativamente de la edad del donante o menos capacidad de reparación del ADN o de su patología (Ataxia Telangiectasia)" Naturalmente, estos resultados son presumiblemente extrapolables a cualquier otra patología genética como así lo ha corroborado un trabajo publicado en Epidemiology, indicando que niños con síndrome de Down (SD) que viven en ambientes con campos electromagnéticos (CEM) de muy bajas frecuencias (ELF) (líneas eléctricas (alta y media tensión, baja de transformadores en viendas) por encima de solo 0,6 microteslas tienen 3,7 veces de media más riesgo a sufrir leucemia que niños con este síndrome y que viven bajo un menor CEM. El número de casos estudiados, niños con SD + leucemia es bastante elevado si tenemos en cuenta el estudio Karolinska, frente a 124 niños sanos con SD. Tal y como nos recuerda este estudio los niños con SD tienen de promedio 20 veces más de posibilidades que los sin SD de padecer una leucemia a lo largo de su vida, constituyendo así desgraciadamente un modelo de susceptibilidad a este cáncer y de interés como modelo en estudios sobre riesgos ambientales relacionados con aquella enfermedad. Otra posible asociación corroborada también recientemente, viene derivada de la exposición de la madre durante la gestación a los CEM, incrementando así el riesgo de padecer una leucemia a sus hijos en el futuro. Así, dos últimas reflexiones antes de concluir este año acerca del posible mecanismo favorecedor de una leucemia en niños o adultos derivada de la exposición materna a CEM y el sufrimiento de alteraciones genéticas graves o que se expresan fenotípicamente. Cualquiera puede introducir en GOOGLE las palabras claves, enfermedades genéticas encontrando una amplia lista desde la esclerosis múltiple (un 15 % familiares afectados) hasta las distrofias musculares, pasando claro por el síndrome de Down, hemofilia. En definitiva REFLEX encuentra alteración genotóxicas muy por debajo de lo que la ley considera como nivel de referencia o 100 microteslas, pero ya vemos que ese límite es intolerable, celularmente, clínicamente y por ende éticamente; y mucho más si consideramos a solo los enfermos con anomalías genéticas hacia los cuales se debería de contemplar para establecer cualquier norma medio ambiental, salvo que queramos que solo los fuertes sobrevivan. Dr. Claudio Gómez-Perretta Centro de Investigación, Hospital La Fe 46009 Valencia gomez_cla "@" gva.es PS: Este pequeño escrito quiero que humildemente sirva de homenaje para una madre luchadora por la memoria y justicia de su hijo Jairo, cuyo relato de vida y desaparición nos ha llenado de tristeza a todos. Nunca sabremos si su tumor cerebral se debió al fuerte CEM que sufría su vivienda, más de 0,4 microteslas (tenía y tiene debajo un potente transformador eléctrico) en su pequeño dormitorio, pero sí que este hecho es a la vista del conocimiento científico actual INTOLERABLE y NUNCA podrá descartarse tampoco, su posible influencia sobre la terrible enfermedad de su hijo.

The results were based on answers from 542 (92%) cases with seminoma, 346 (89%) with non-seminoma, and 870 (89%) controls. Regarding seminoma the use of analog cellular phones gave odds ratio (OR) 1/4 1.2, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1/4 0.91.6, digital phones OR 1/4 1.3, CI 1/4 0.91.8, and cordless phones OR 1/4 1.1, CI 1/4 0.81.5. The corresponding results for nonseminoma were OR 1/4 0.7, CI 1/4 0.51.1, OR 1/4 0.9, CI 1/4 0.61.4, and OR 1/4 1.0, CI 1/4 0.71.4, respectively. There was no doseresponse effect and OR did not increase with latency time. No association was found with place of keeping the mobile phone during standby, such as trousers pocket. Cryptorchidism was associated both with seminoma (OR 1/4 4.2, CI 1/4 2.76.5) and non-seminoma (OR 1/4 3.3, CI 1/4 2.05.6), but no interaction was found with the use of cellular or cordless telephones. see more from Hardell: Tumour risk associated with use of cellular telephones or cordless desktop telephones | Pooled analysis of two case-control studies on the use of cellular and cordless telephones and the risk of benign brain tumours diagnosed during 1997-2003. | Pooled analysis Update | The paper by Hardell, Richter et al makes headlines: Industry 'paid top cancer expert' |

BACKGROUND: We analyzed effects of exposure to magnetic fields on the expression of acute leukemia in children with Down syndrome (who have a 20-fold higher risk of leukemia). METHODS:: We performed a case-control study that included 42 children with both acute leukemia and Down syndrome as cases and 124 healthy children with Down syndrome as controls. We obtained demographic information concerning the children and took spot measurements of magnetic fields at each residence. RESULTS: The odds ratio for direct measurements of magnetic fields >/=6.00 mG was 3.7 (95% confidence interval = 1.05-13.1). CONCLUSION: The association between magnetic fields and leukemia in children with Down syndrome suggests the possibility of a causal role for magnetic fields in the etiology of leukemia among a genetically susceptible subgroup of children.

![]() After Doll's death- the truth is out, but the lies never stop Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2006, from: Iris Atzmon The paper by Hardell, Richter et al makes headlines: Industry 'paid top cancer expert' The scientist who first linked smoking to lung cancer was paid by a biotech firm while investigating cancer risks in the industry, it has emerged. The Guardian newspaper reported that Professor Sir Richard Doll held a consultancy post with US firm Monsanto for more than 20 years. During that time he investigated the potential cancer causing properties of Agent Orange, made by the company. But a former colleague said he gave the money he was paid to charity. Professor Sir Richard Peto, a fellow expert in cancer, said: "Everybody working in this area knew that Richard worked for industry and consulted for industry, and would do court cases. "It does not in any sense suggest that his work was biased. He was incredibly careful to avoid bias." The Guardian reported that Sir Richard, who died in 2005 aged 92, received a US$1,500-a-day consultancy fee from Monsanto, then a chemicals company, in the mid-1980s. During that period, Sir Richard wrote to an Australian commission on the results of his investigation into whether the chemical Agent Orange, famous for its use by the US during the Vietnam War, caused cancer. He argued in his letter that there was no evidence that Agent Orange caused cancer. Should come clean Professor Lennart Hardell, of the Oncology Department at University Hospital Orebro, Sweden, has also studied the potential hazards posed by Agent Orange. He was one of the scientists whose work was dismissed by Sir Richard. He told the BBC Sir Richard's work was tainted. He said: "It's quite OK to have contacts with industry, but you should be fair and say 'well, I'm writing this letter as a consultant for Monsanto." "But he does it as president, Green College, UK - a prestige position; also the Imperial Research Cancer Organisation in the UK. "And that makes a different position of the paper because you are an official university-employed person giving this position." Further documents obtained by The Guardian allegedly show that Sir Richard was also paid a - £15,000 fee by the Chemical Manufacturers Association, and chemicals companies Dow Chemicals and ICI for a review of vinyl chloride, used in plastics, which largely cleared the chemical of any link with cancers apart from liver cancer. According to the newspaper, this is a view with which the World Health Organisation disagrees. Doll's views on the chemical were used by the manufacturers' trade association to defend it for more than a decade, The Guardian said. Sir Richard was the first to publish a peer-reviewed study, in 1951, to demonstrate smoking was a major cause of lung cancer. http://health-post.com/industry-paid-top-cancer-expert.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mona Nilsson" Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2006 From: "Per Dalen" Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2006 Epidemiologists with secret ties to industry The December 2 issue of the British Medical Journal carries a news article entitled "Professor Doll failed to declare interests when working on vinyl chloride". The first 150 words of the text are freely available at http://bmj.com/cgi/content/short/333/7579/1142-c?etoc. This news item is based on an article in the American Journal of Industrial Medicine, "Secret Ties to Industry and Conflicting Interests in Cancer Research", written by Lennart Hardell, Martin J. Walker, Bo Walhjalt, Lee S. Friedman, and Elihu D. Richter. The abstract: Background Recently it was reported that a Swedish professor in environmental health has for decades worked as a consultant for Philip Morris without reporting his employment to his academic employer or declaring conflicts of interest in his research. The potential for distorting the epidemiological assessments of hazard and risk through paid consultants, pretending to be independent, is not exclusive to the tobacco industry. Methods Documentation is drawn from peer reviewed publications, websites, documents from the Environmental Protection Agency, University reports, Wellcome Library Special Collections and the Washington Post. Results Some consulting firms employ university researchers for industry work thereby disguising industry links in the income of large departments. If the industry affiliation is concealed by the scientist, biases from conflicting interests in risk assessments cannot be evaluated and dealt with properly. Furthermore, there is reason to suspect that editors and journal staff may suppress publication of scientific results that are adverse to industry owing to internal conflict of interest between editorial integrity and business needs. Conclusions Examples of these problems from Sweden, UK, and USA are presented. The shortfalls cited in this article illustrate the need for improved transparency, regulations that will help curb abuses as well as instruments for control and enforcement against abuses. end quote. The Swedish professor mentioned in the abstract is Ragnar Rylander, whose case has been quite thoroughly investigated in Sweden and Geneva and is widely publicized on the Web in the main European languages. The universities of Gothenburg and Geneva have been somewhat defensive during this process. As we know, cases of unethical behaviour in academia would often go unnoticed if it were not for the efforts of investigative journalists. The next example in this article is professor Hans-Olov Adami, Swedish cancer epidemiologist who was recently given a top job at Harvard http://ki.se/ki/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=130&a=17248&l=en&newsdep=130, http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/2006/10.05/04-adami.html. Chemical carcinogenesis is a perpetual problem, and it has often been taken for granted that epidemiologists have a key to its solution. The title of a 1995 article by science journalist Gary Taubes is "Epidemiology Faces Its Limits" http://mcgill.ca/files/cancerepi/Science269-164s.pdf This text is a neat summary of the situation in which the specialty had landed more than a decade ago. Looking for causal explanations by numerical methods has its limitations. However, epidemiologists are still much in demand when help is needed to stave off threats of government regulation. Sir Richard Doll passed away in July, 2005. Obituarists remembered him as an impeccable and indeed exemplary scientist who saved millions of lives. Martin Walker has already aptly described this hagiographic tradition in his 2005 article, "Sir Richard Doll: Death, dioxin and PVC", http://dipmat.unipg.it/~mamone/sci-dem/contri/walker.PDF. Sir Richard's involvement in the so-called Spanish cooking oil scandal was touched upon briefly by Martin Walker in the article just mentioned, to which I might add the following links: http://guardian.co.uk/weekend/story/0,3605,541260,00.html http://shorl.com/famystimynipra. |

![]() 7.12.06 "This study shows that a higher degree of hearing loss is associated with long-term exposure to electromagnetic (EM) field generated by cellular phones" Effects of intensive and moderate cellular phone use on hearing function. Oktay MF, Dasdag S. Department of Otolaryngology, Medical School of Dicle University, Diyarbakir, Turkey. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of radiation emitted by mobile phones on the hearing of users. The study was carried out on three groups: 1) 20 men who have used a cellular phone frequently and spoken approximately 2 h per day for four years; 2) 20 men who have used a cellular phone for 10-20 min per day for four years; and 3) 20 healthy men who have never used a cellular phone (the control group). Brainstem evoked response audiometric (BERA) and pure tone audiometric (PTA) methods were used to measure the effects of exposure on hearing function of the subjects. In BERA measurements, I-III, III-V, and I-V interpeak latencies were evaluated. Interpeak latency of subjects in two experimental groups was compared to that of subjects in the control group. The BERA results showed no differences among the groups (p > 0.05). In PTA measurements, detection thresholds at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, 4000 Hz, and 8000 Hz frequencies were measured in all three groups. No differences were observed between moderate mobile phone users (10-20 min. per day) and control subjects. However, detection thresholds in those who talked approximately 2 h per day were found to be higher than those in either moderate users or control subjects. Differences at 4000 Hz for both bone and air conduction for right ears, and 500 Hz, and 4000 Hz bone and air conduction for left ears were significant for mean hearing threshold. This study shows that a higher degree of hearing loss is associated with long-term exposure to electromagnetic (EM) field generated by cellular phones. PMID: 16595330 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] |

![]() 7.12.2006 [JUNK SCIENCE] ![]() Joachim Schüz, Rune Jacobsen, Jørgen H. Olsen, John D. Boice Jr, Joseph K. McLaughlin, Christoffer Johansen The Danish study, the full document, .pdf, 220 KB, from prof Lennart Hardell Note from Iris Atzmon: unethical 6 Dec 2006 Note - it is written in the study that the funding came from the Danish Cancer Society (and the danish strategies research council) but the original study from 2001 was funded THROUGH the Danish cancer society and BY the 2 biggest cellular companies in Denmark, Teledenmark and Sonophone. (it cost them 1 millions koronas). It was reported at the time by Sianette Kwee. So it is the same case here- but it is not reported. Unethical. Regards, Iris. see also: The Danish study funded by the cellular companies Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2006 Subject: The Danish study Only the media outside Denmark was informed about this study in the first place by???? industry. In Denmark it was not made public before Wednesday 12/6/2006. Since it is based on the old study, it does not include information about cell phone use in industry, trades and crafts, governmental and other public institutions etc. In the television interview with J. Olsen it was said that now all craft-/tradesmen, who are so dependant in their work on the their cellphone can use it safely and unlimited. Sianette Kwee After 21 years, scientists say: mobiles don't cause cancer More than a decade's use of mobile phones does not increase the risk of brain cancer, according to one of the largest studies into the link. The longest-running investigation yet conducted involving almost half a million people has found that there is no link between mobile phone use and cancers of the head or neck. Research by the Danish Institute of Cancer Epidemiology in Copenhagen found that of the 420,095 people studied, 14,249 cancers were diagnosed, but there was no suggestion that any were linked to mobile phone use. The research contrasts with a 2004 Swedish study which found that using mobile phones for ten years or more can increase the risk of non-invasive growths called acoustic neuromas. Study finds no cancer risk from cellphones Dec. 5, 2006 Lauran Neergaard AP, Washington - A huge study from Denmark offers the latest reassurance that cellphones don't trigger cancer. Scientists tracked 420,000 Danish cellphone users, including 52,000 who had gabbed on the gadgets for 10 years or more, and some who started using them 21 years ago. They matched phone records to the famed Danish Cancer Registry that records every citizen who gets the disease - and reported Tuesday that cellphone callers are no more likely than anyone else to suffer a range of cancer types. The study, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, is the largest yet to find no bad news about the safety of cell phones and the radiofrequency energy they emit. But even the lead researcher doubts it will end the debate. "There's really no biological basis for you to be concerned about radio waves," said John Boice, a Vanderbilt University professor and scientific director of the International Epidemiology Institute in Rockville, Md. "Nonetheless, people are." So Boice and colleagues at Copenhagen's Danish Cancer Society plan to continue tracking the Danish callers until at least some have used the phones for 30 years. This so-called Danish cohort "is probably the strongest study out there because of the outstanding registries they keep," said Joshua Muscat of Pennsylvania State University, who also has studied cell phones and cancer. "As the body of evidence accumulates, people can become more reassured that these devices are safe, but the final word is not there yet," Muscat added. Cellphones beam radiofrequency energy that can penetrate the brain's outer edge, raising questions about cancers of the head and neck, brain tumours or leukemia. Most research has found no risk, but a few studies have raised questions. And while U.S. health officials insist the evidence shows no real reason for concern, they don't give the phones a definitive clean bill of health, either, pending long-term data on slow-growing cancers. For the latest study, personal identification numbers assigned to each Dane at birth allowed researchers to match people who began using cell phones between 1982 and 1995 with cancer records. Among 420,000 callers tracked through 2002, there were 14,249 cancers diagnosed - fewer than the 15,001 predicted from national cancer rates. Nor did the study find increased risks for any specific tumour type. http://thestar.com/ Cell phones don't raise cancer risk - study Tue Dec 5, 2006 A total of 14,249 cancer cases were seen among the cellular telephone users, a number that was lower than would be expected for that population, according to the study appearing in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Clean Bill of Health "We were not able to identify any increased risks of any cancers that could be related to the use of the cellular phones," John Boice, a cancer epidemiologist at Vanderbilt University who worked on the research, said in an interview. Boice said the type of radiation involved in cell phones is not known to damage cells or DNA. "So there's no biological mechanism that would suggest that even this type of exposure could cause cancer or DNA damage," Boice said. The study reinforces the consensus among leading health organizations that cellular phones do not cause harmful health effects, a wireless industry group said. "The overwhelming majority of studies that have been published in scientific journals around the globe show that wireless phones do not pose a health risk," said Joseph Farren, spokesman for CTIA, the Washington-based wireless industry group. The researchers acknowledged some limitations in their work. Schuz said they could not differentiate between people who used the phones frequently and those who did so sparingly, meaning the researchers could not rule out the possibility that some type of increased risk exists among heavy users. "There is, in fact, a hazard from the use of a cellular phone that we have to all be concerned about," added Boice, but it is not cancer-related. "And that's using a phone when we're driving an automobile," leaving a driver distracted and causing accidents.

Department of Cell Biology and Biophysics, Faculty of Biology, University of Athens, Panepistimiopolis, 15784 Athens, Greece. In the present study, the TUNEL (Terminal deoxynucleotide transferase dUTP Nick End Labeling) assay - a well known technique widely used for detecting fragmented DNA in various types of cells - was used to detect cell death (DNA fragmentation) in a biological model, the early and mid stages of oogenesis of the insect Drosophila melanogaster. The flies were exposed in vivo to either GSM 900-MHz (Global System for Mobile telecommunications) or DCS 1800-MHz (Digital Cellular System) radiation from a common digital mobile phone, for few minutes per day during the first 6 days of their adult life. The exposure conditions were similar to those to which a mobile phone user is exposed, and were determined according to previous studies of ours [D.J. Panagopoulos, A. Karabarbounis, L.H. Margaritis, Effect of GSM 900-MHz mobile phone radiation on the reproductive capacity of D. melanogaster, Electromagn. Biol. Med. 23 (1) (2004) 29-43; D.J. Panagopoulos, N. Messini, A.

Stavroulakis (Eds.), Proceedings of the Millennium International Workshop on Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields, Heraklion, Crete, Greece, October 17-20, 2000, pp. 169-175, ISBN: 960-86733-0-5; D.J.

Stavroulakis (Ed.), Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields, Springer, 2003, pp. 545-578], which had shown a large decrease in the oviposition of the same insect caused by GSM radiation. Our present results suggest that the decrease in oviposition previously reported, is due to degeneration of large numbers of egg chambers after DNA fragmentation of their constituent cells, induced by both types of mobile telephony radiation. Induced cell death is recorded for the first time, in all types of cells constituting an egg chamber (follicle cells, nurse cells and the oocyte) and in all stages of the early and mid- oogenesis, from germarium to stage 10, during which programmed cell death does not physiologically occur. Germarium and stages 7-8 were found to be the most sensitive developmental stages also in response to electromagnetic stress induced by the GSM and DCS fields and, moreover, germarium was found to be even more sensitive than stages 7- 8. I received it like that, without a link: Chemo drugs 'destroy brain cells' [source BBC News 30th Nov 2006] A team from New York's University of Rochester found several types of key brain cell were highly vulnerable to the drugs. They say it might help explain side effects such as seizures and memory loss associated with chemotherapy - collectively dubbed 'chemo brain'. The research, on mice, is published in the Journal of Biology. Drug therapy for cancer can prompt a wide range of neurological side effects, even the onset of dementia. But they were thought not to be directly linked to the drug treatment itself. Instead, some doctors have put them down to the patient's vulnerable psychological state. The latest study found that dose levels typically used when treating patients killed 40% to 80% of cancer cells - but 70% to 100% of brain cells. Several types of healthy brain cell continued to die for at least six weeks after exposure. Common drugs tested Lead researcher Dr Mark Noble said: "This is the first study that puts chemo brain on a sound scientific footing, in terms of neurobiology and cellular biology." The Rochester team carried out tests with three drugs used to treat a wide range of cancers: carmustine, cisplatin and cytosine arabinoside. All three drugs were toxic to several types of brain cell whose job is to repair other cells in the brain - even at very low concentrations. They also killed off oligodenrocyte cells, which play a key role in the transmission of messages around the nervous system. The researchers suggest damage to cells in the hippocampus, which is responsible for memory and learning, is most likely to explain chemo brain symptoms. Professor John Toy, Cancer Research UK's medical director, said: "The doses of therapy needed to treat cancer while leaving the body's healthy cells as unharmed as possible is a fine balance judged by experienced specialists. "They aim to maximise benefits and minimise damage. Unfortunately side-effects can include toxicity to the brain. "This research in mice may hopefully suggest new ways of researching how this toxicity might be overcome. "It is important to remember, however, that all presently available cancer treatments have gone through extensive clinical trials to ensure that their benefits outweigh unwanted effects. "No patient should stop their treatment because of this research." The researchers said it might be possible to add protective agents to chemotherapy drugs. They also suggest further work to pinpoint which cells are most at risk. |

There is concern of health problems such as malignant diseases due to microwave exposure during the use of these devices. The brain is the main target organ. Methods: Since the second part of the 1990's we have performed six case-control studies on this topic encompassing use of both cellular and cordless phones as well as other exposures. Three of the studies concerned brain tumours, one salivary gland tumours, one non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and one testicular cancer. Exposure was assessed by self-administered questionnaires. Results: Regarding acoustic neuroma analogue cellular phones yielded odds ratio (OR) = 2.9, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 2.04.3, digital cellular phones OR = 1.5, 95 % CI = 1.12.1 and cordless phones OR = 1.5, 95 % CI = 1.042.0. The corresponding results were for astrocytoma grade III-IV OR = 1.7, 95 % CI = 1.32.3; OR = 1.5, 95 % CI = 1.21.9 and OR = 1.5, 95 % CI = 1.11.9, respectively. The ORs increased with latency period with highest estimates using > 10 years time period from first use of these phone types. Lower ORs were calculated for astrocytoma grade I-II. No association was found with salivary gland tumours, NHL or testicular cancer although an association with NHL of T-cell type could not be ruled out. Conclusion: We found for all studied phone types an increased risk for brain tumours, mainly acoustic neuroma and malignant brain tumours. OR increased with latency period, especially for astrocytoma grade III-IV. No consistent pattern of an increased risk was found for salivary gland tumours, NHL, or testicular cancer.

Salem Community, Environmental and Occupational Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine, Menoufiya University, Shebin El-Kom, Egypt Received 20 October 2005; accepted 18 July 2006 Background: There is a general concern on the possible hazardous health effects of exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiations (RFR) emitted from mobile phone base station antennas on the human nervous system. Aim: To identify the possible neurobehavioral deficits among inhabitants living nearby mobile phone base stations. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on (85) inhabitants living nearby the first mobile phone station antenna in Menoufiya governorate, Egypt, 37 are living in a building under the station antenna while 48 opposite the station. A control group (80) participants were matched with the exposed for age, sex, occupation and educational level. All participants completed a structured questionnaire containing: personal, educational and medical histories; general and neurological examinations; neurobehavioral test battery (NBTB) [involving tests for visuomotor speed, problem solving, attention and memory]; in addition to Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ). Results: The prevalence of neuropsychiatric complaints as headache (23.5%), memory changes (28.2%), dizziness (18.8%), tremors (9.4%), depressive symptoms (21.7%), and sleep disturbance (23.5%) were significantly higher among exposed inhabitants than controls: (10%), (5%), (5%), (0%), (8.8%) and (10%), respectively (P < 0.05). The NBTB indicated that the exposed inhabitants exhibited a significantly lower performance than controls in one of the tests of attention and short-term auditory memory [Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT)]. Also, the inhabitants opposite the station exhibited a lower performance in the problem solving test (block design) than those under the station. All inhabitants exhibited a better performance in the two tests of visuomotor speed (Digit symbol and Trailmaking B) and one test of attention (Trailmaking A) than controls. The last available measures of RFR emitted from the first mobile phone base station antennas in Menoufiya governorate were less than the allowable standard level. Conclusions and recommendations: Inhabitants living nearby mobile phone base stations are at risk for developing neuropsychiatric problems and some changes in the performance of neurobehavioral functions either by facilitation or inhibition. ![]() So, revision of standard guidelines for public exposure to RER from mobile phone base station antennas and using of NBTB for regular assessment and early detection of biological effects among inhabitants around the stations are recommended.

Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, Suleyman Demirel University, 32260, Isparta, Turkey. Microwaves (MW) from cellular phones may affect biological systems by increasing free radicals, which may enhance lipid peroxidation levels of the brain, thus leading to oxidative damage. Melatonin is synthesized in and secreted by the pineal gland at night and exhibits anti-oxidant properties. Several studies suggest that supplementation with anti-oxidant can influence MW-induced brain damage. The present study was designed to determine the effects of MW on the brain lipid peroxidation system, and the possible protective effects of melatonin on brain degeneration induced by MW. Twenty-eight Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into three groups as follows: (1) sham-operated control group (N = 8); (2) study 900-MHz MW-exposed group (N = 8); and (3) 900-MHz MW-exposed+melatonin (100 microg/kg sc before daily MW exposure treated group) (N = 10). Cortex brain and hippocampus tissues were removed to study the levels of lipid peroxidation as malonyl dialdehyde. The levels of lipid peroxidation in the brain cortex and hippocampus increased in the MW group compared with the control group, although the levels in the hippocampus were decreased by MW+melatonin administration. The brain cortex lipid peroxidation levels were unaffected by melatonin treatment. We conclude that melatonin may prevent MW-induced oxidative changes in the hippocampus by strengthening the anti-oxidant defense system, by reducing oxidative stress products.

Cognitive Science Unit, Department of Psychology, University of Helsinki, Helsinki. Finland. christina.krause@helsinki.fi PURPOSE: To assess the effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) emitted by mobile phones (MP) on the 1 - 20 Hz event-related brain oscillatory EEG (electroencephalogram) responses in children performing an auditory memory task (encoding and recognition). MATERIALS AND METHODS: EEG data were gathered while 15 subjects (age 10 - 14 years) performed an auditory memory task both with and without exposure to a digital 902 MHz MP in counterbalanced order. RESULTS: During memory encoding, the active MP modulated the event-related desynchronization/synchronization (ERD/ERS) responses in the approximately 4 - 8 Hz EEG frequencies. During recognition, the active MP transformed these brain oscillatory responses in the approximately 4 - 8 Hz and approximately 15 Hz frequencies. CONCLUSIONS: The current findings suggest that EMF emitted by mobile phones has effects on brain oscillatory responses during cognitive processing in children. PMID: 16846979 [PubMed - in process] |

![]() April 21, 2006 From: "Clas Tegenfeldt" tegen von bemi.se A dual band GMSM telephone can have an transmitter power of 0,002 W up to 2 Watts. The SAR of some GSM telephones reach 2 W/kg, if we assume this happens when the phone transmitts 2 W then we would have 0,002 W/kg when the phone transmitts at its lowest level. Thus the sham exposure in the report is about the same as when someone is talking in a GSM telephone near a basestation (thus the lowest transmitted power). This happens for indoor GSM systems as well as macro cells (if you are some hundred meters from the basestation). The difference reported in the study is 1,4 W/kg and 0,002 W/kg for exposure and sham respectively, that is less than a factor of thousand I used above. It is therefore HIGHLY questionable that the SHAM exposure can be regarded as such! If there would be a clear cut threshold for symptoms provoked by the exposure that happened to be between the 0,002 and 2 W/kg exposures then - maybe - the study would have given some information. more |

TenneT (the Transmission System Operator (TSO) in the Netherlands) has introduced a new high voltage system: http://tennet.nl/english/news/archive/8693.asp#0 The magnetic fields by the Wintrack powerline system are decreased, because the lines are always six in a perfect circle (before, they were in triangles). The magnetic fields neutralize each other extensively. Moreover there are conductors in the ground, I don't understand exactly how, I think they take stray fields away.

![]() EN Kinder, die in der Nähe von Hochspannungsleitungen aufwachsen, erkranken häufiger an Leukämie als Kinder, deren Zuhause weit von Starkstromleitungen entfernt liegt. Zu diesem Ergebnis kommen Wissenschaftler der Universität Oxford in der Studie "Childhood cancer in relation to distance from high voltage power lines in England and Wales: a case-control study". Die Wissenschaftler hatten dazu die Wohnorte von 29.000 krebskranken Kindern - 9700 mit Leukämie auf der Insel untersucht und festgestellt, daß überdurchschnittlich viele an Leukämie erkrankte Kinder in der Nähe von Überlandleitungen leben. Kinder, die weniger als 200 Meter entfernt von einer Hochspannungsleitung auf die Welt kommen, haben demnach ein 69 Prozent höheres Risiko an Leukämie zu erkranken als Kinder, die mehr als 600 Meter entfernt von einem Starkstrommasten geboren wurden. Leben Kinder in einer räumlichen Entfernung von 200 bis 600 Metern zu den Überlandleitungen, ist das Risiko einer Leukämie-Erkrankung gegenüber der weiter entfernt wohnenden Vergleichsgruppe laut Studie um 23 Prozent größer. Für andere Krebsformen wurde kein erhöhtes Risiko gefunden. Die Autoren, die ihre epidemiologischen Erkenntnisse jetzt in der Fachzeitschrift British Medical Journal veröffentlicht haben, weisen allerdings darauf hin, daß es für die statistischen Daten derzeit keine akzeptierten biologischen Wirkmechanismen gebe. 9.6.05, Anm. von Krzysztof Puzyna (umtsno) Es gibt verschiedene Theorien über die Wirkung der elektromagnetischen Felder auf Lebewesen: Manczarski - Plasma-Theorie, die Tesla-Resonanz-Theorie oder die Studie von Bo Sernelius. siehe auch die Erklärung von Dr. Hyland während der Konferenz der Whistleblower am 07.09.2003 in Starnbek Ihrer gemeinsame Nenner ist, daß die elektromagnetischen Felder in der Milliarden mal kleineren Stärke als die Grenzwerte der ICNIRP-Maffia ( und durch diese Maffia unterwanderte WHO-Organisation in Genf) die lebenden Organismen schädigen. Keine dieser Theorien hat jemals eine Chance auf Anerkennung solange die Verbrecher und Lobbyisten von Vodafone bei WHO in Genf ihr Unwesen treiben dürfen.

![]() DE Conclusions There is an association between childhood leukaemia and proximity of home address at birth to high voltage power lines, and the apparent risk extends to a greater distance than would have been expected from previous studies. About 4% of children in England and Wales live within 600 m of high voltage lines at birth. If the association is causal, about 1% of childhood leukaemia in England and Wales would be attributable to these lines, though this estimate has considerable statistical uncertainty. There is no accepted biological mechanism to explain the epidemiological results; indeed, the relation may be due to chance or confounding. more ex more see also ex Residential and Occupational Exposures to 50-Hz Magnetic Fields and Breast Cancer in Women see Advice to Governments from Repacholi-WHO |

![]() DE Non-thermal DNA breakage by mobile-phone radiation (1800MHz) in human fibroblasts and in transformed GFSH-R17 rat granulosa cells in vitro. Diem E, Schwarz C, Adlkofer F, Jahn O, Rudiger H. Division of Occupational Medicine, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18-20, Vienna 1090, Austria. Cultured human diploid fibroblasts and cultured rat granulosa cells were exposed to intermittent and continuous radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) used in mobile phones, with different specific absorption rates (SAR) and different mobile-phone modulations. DNA strand breaks were determined by means of the alkaline and neutral comet assay. RF-EMF exposure (1800MHz; SAR 1.2 or 2W/kg; different modulations; during 4, 16 and 24h; intermittent 5min on/10min off or continuous wave) induced DNA single- and double-strand breaks. Effects occurred after 16h exposure in both cell types and after different mobile-phone modulations. The intermittent exposure showed a stronger effect in the comet assay than continuous exposure. Therefore we conclude that the induced DNA damage cannot be based on thermal effects. exAbstract 17.05.2005 ![]() EN Nicht-thermische DNA-Brüche durch Mobilfunkstrahlung (1800 MHz) in menschlichen Fibroblasten und in veränderten GFSH-R17 Granulosazellen von Ratten in vitro Studie Abstract: Rattenkulturzellen (diploide Fibroblasten und Granulosazellen) wurden in intermittierender und kontinuierlicher hochfrequenter elektromagnetischer Strahlung (RF-EMF) mit verschiedenen spezifischen Absorptionsraten (SAR) und unterschiedlichen mobilfunktypischen Modulationen exponiert. Die Brüche der DNA-Stränge wurden mit Hilfe der alkalischen und neutralen Comet Assay-Methode bestimmt. Die RF-EMF Exposition (1800MHz; SAR 1,2 oder 2W/kg; unterschiedliche Modulationen; während 4, 16 und 24 Stunden; intermittierend 5 min an / 10 min aus oder kontinuierliche Wellen) bewirkte DNA Einzel- und Doppelstrangbrüche. Diese Wirkungen traten nach einer Exposition von 16 Stunden in beiden Zelltypen auf und nach unterschiedlichen Mobilfunkmodulationen. Die intermittierende Exposition zeigte stärkere Auswirkungen beim Comet Assay als die kontinuierliche Exposition, woraus die Autoren schließen,daß die Schädigung der DNA nicht durch thermische Effekte verursacht wird.

Nach dreiwöchiger täglicher Exposition (1, 2, 3 und 8 Stunden) wurde die Menge des Chlorophylls gemessen. Dabei wurde festgestellt, daß die Menge an Chlorophyll-a als auch die an Chlorophyll-b gesunken war, außer bei einer Expositionszeit von zwei Stunden, bei der eine beträchtliche Steigerung zu verzeichnen war. Der Versuch zeigte, daß das Verhältnis der beiden Haupttypen des Chlorophylls logarithmisch abnahm in dem Maße wie die tägliche Exposition andauerte.

![]() DE Research in Austria The radiation of a cell phone base station at a distance of 80 metres causes significant changes of the electrical currents in the brains of testees (measured by electroencefalogram, EEG). All the testees said they felt unwell during the radiation, some of them seriously. That is the result of an investigation by a team of Austrian scientists. They measured alpha 1 (8 to 10 Hz), alpha 2 (10 to 12 Hz) and beta waves (13 to 20 Hz). A small density of GSM 900 and GSM 1800 radiation already caused several significant changes in these three frequency ranges. This means the body is stressed - temporarily this may have some positive effect, in the long run however stress certainly reduces the quality of life, capacity for work and state of health. more |

Präventive ärztliche Kontrollen zum Schutz von Arbeitnehmern vor elektromagnetischen Feldern sollen verstärkt werden. Dies hat das Europäische Parlament (EP) gefordert und damit grünes Licht für eine geplante Richtlinie gegeben. Das Regelwerk setzt Expositionsgrenzwerte zum Schutz von Arbeitnehmern fest. Wird ein Grenzwert überschritten, muss der Mitarbeiter ärztlich untersucht werden. Die Richtlinie zielt vor allem auf Beschäftigte in der Stahlindustrie, Metallbearbeitung oder auf Personen, die in der Nähe von Fernseh- oder Radioübertragungsmasten, Radargeräten sowie Mobilfunkantennen arbeiten.

![]() Der Elektrobiologe Harald Moritz führt langjährig Statistik Jeder Mensch reagiert sehr spezifisch auf Umwelteinflüsse, zu denen auch die elektromagnetischen Felder zählen. Auf Grund meiner mehr als zehnjährigen Erfahrung als Elektrobiologe, sowie ähnlicher Auffassung in Fachkreisen, haben sich bei besonders exponierten Patienten jedoch ähnliche Abläufe entwickelt. Demnach reagiert der menschliche Organismus in drei Stufen auf Elektrosmog: 1. Phase - Störungsphase Hierbei reagiert der Körper mit Befindlichkeitsstörungen und Stresssymptomen wie Schlafstörungen, Appetitlosigkeit, Nervosität, Konzentrationsschwäche sowie vegetativen Komponenten. 2. Phase - Beeinträchtigungsphase Die Symptome der Störungen werden nun deutlicher wahrgenommen, z.B. als starke Kopfschmerzen bzw. Migräne, Verdauungsstörungen, Immunschwäche, stärkerer Infektanfälligkeit und weiteren organischen Störungen. 3. Phase - Pathologische Phase (Krankheit) Die dritte Phase bedingt eine Erkrankung, die ohne Reduzierung der Elektrosmogbelastung, dann häufig zu einer irreversiblen Krankheit führt. Hier dokumentiert sich ein breites medizinisches Krankheitsspektrum. Anm. Webmaster: siehe in PDF-Datei, Langzeituntersuchungen profhecht.htm II Mensch 5-18 ; rus.htm und Krebsfälle in Spanien mehr |
