Abstract

Overview

Investigating the potential health risks linked to long-term mobile phone usage, specifically in relation to intracranial tumors.

Findings

• Analysis indicates a heightened risk of intracranial tumors with over 10 years of mobile phone usage.
• Significantly increased risks are seen with ipsilateral (same side) exposure.
• Risks include a fourfold higher risk of ipsilateral glioma and a 2.55 times increased risk of ipsilateral acoustic neuroma after 1640 hours of mobile usage.

Conclusion

The results affirm the hypothesis that long-term mobile phone use is possibly carcinogenic, as suggested by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Continued research is essential to explore this association further.
