Abstract

Overview

The review discusses the significant increase in mobile phone usage globally over the past two decades and its associated economic growth and environmental impacts. The radiation from mobile phones, radio stations, and other sources is explored concerning its potential to cause health risks including cancer.

Findings

• The review synthesizes information from various in vitro and in vivo studies.
• It points out a lack of consistent patterns in the health risks associated with electromagnetic radiation, specifically mentioning inconclusive links to cancer.
• Several epidemiological studies show a weak association between radiation exposure from mobile phones and carcinogenicity.

Conclusion

Despite inconclusive evidence directly linking mobile phone usage to cancer and other health issues, the review emphasizes the importance of precautions due to the presence of certain risks. Recommendations for preventive actions and further research are made to better understand the potential health implications.
