There has been a lot of debate in recent years about the
effect radiation from cell phones may have on human health.
Some experts have made dire predictions, while others have
suggested that it will have little effect.
A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports is
joining the debate. In it, researchers claim that radiation
from cell phones may affect the brains of developing
fetuses, causing changes that may predispose them to
behavioral problems like attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder.
The findings were based on a study involving mice.
Researchers from the Yale School of Medicine exposed the
animals to cell phone radiation while they were pregnant and
examined the effects on the offspring.
Results from the trial showed that the offspring of mice
exposed to cell phone radiation were more likely to be
hyperactive and had reduced memory. Furthermore, the
researchers found that these mice had altered neuronal
development in the prefrontal cortex areas of their brains.
This may account for why these animals were less able to
control their behaviors.
The researchers said that rates of ADHD have been increasing
in recent years, as has the number of cell phone users. The
findings of the study suggest that these two trends may be
related. Still, the fact that the trial was conducted in lab
mice makes it difficult to extrapolate the findings to
humans. The same processes may not necessarily take place.
For this reason, the researchers recommended that further
research be conducted to study the effects of prenatal cell
phone radiation exposure. Determining if there is indeed the
same kind of link between cell phone radiation and
behavioral problems could play an important role in the
prevention of behavioral problems like ADHD.
