After eight years of playing cell phones, the left side of the brain gave birth to brain cancer At the end of last year, the neurosurgery department of PLA 304 Hospital admitted a patient with glioblastoma in the left hemisphere of the brain with a wide range. The patient had been misdiagnosed as cerebral infarction by several famous big hospitals in China. 304 Hospital identified it as a clinically rare glioblastoma related to the patient’s long-term use of cell phones. There are three reasons: first, the shape of the tumor, clinically common glioma proliferation center for the mass, and to the surrounding normal brain tissue in a crab claw-like infiltration growth, while the patient’s tumor was diffuse scattered growth, the surrounding border is unclear. Second, this patient’s tumor occurred in the temporo-parieto-occipital junction area, which is an extremely rare location for brain tumor growth. Thirdly, the patient had been using cell phone for 8 years and used to answer the phone with his left hand, and the tumor area was exactly the radiation area of the cell phone antenna. The professor believes that the occurrence of this case is closely related to cell phone radiation. This is the first case of malignant tumor suspected to be related to cell phone radiation reported in China. Cell phone electromagnetic radiation may induce brain malignant tumor Professor An Min said, electromagnetic radiation is a class of ionizing radiation: high-energy rays, such as physics and nuclear medicine on the application of x, α, β, γ rays, cosmic rays; the other class is non-ionizing radiation: microwave radiation. The cell phone is a larger radiation energy of microwave radiation. British scientists with cell phone frequency electromagnetic field, the nematode radiation found that the nematode body protein produced a similar heat shock effect, that is to say, was slightly cooked. If the radiation is stopped at this point, the nematode proteins can still return to normal, such as continuing radiation, the proteins will undergo irreversible denaturation. There is an active immune system in the human body, which is responsible for the functions of immune regulation, immune monitoring, immune killing and immune repair. Damage to cellular structures at the molecular level, whether caused by ionizing or non-ionizing radiation, is accurately recognized and precisely repaired by a healthy immune system, maintaining the functional integrity of the body’s cells and organs. However, due to the decline in immune function, mega-doses of ionizing radiation or long-term low-dose radiation, both of which exceed the ability of the body’s immune system to monitor and repair, the body’s cells finally produce irreversible changes. Biology is called aberration, aberrant cells proliferate in disorder, malignant tumors are generated. The results of the determination of electromagnetic wave radiation from cell phones are worrying At the end of 2000, the Swiss Institute of Technology announced the results of the test of 28 brands of cell phones sold in the European market, the highest amount of radiation is 6 times higher than the lowest brand. 2000 February, the Guangdong Provincial Consumers’ Association investigation found that 11 models of cell phones sold in the market, under the maximum power, the amount of electromagnetic radiation exceeds the limit value of the national standard provisions 18 times More than that. The professor took out a light-emitting diode and asked the reporter to dial a call with the cell phone, and the diode lit up while the cell phone was transmitting. Professor said, the diode should be energized to light up, a phone call can make it light up, see how strong the strength of cell phone electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic wave radiation on the human body, there is a quantitative to qualitative process. Although the cell phone electromagnetic wave radiation will cause harm to the human body is controversial, but prevention is better than cure, reduce the “electronic fog” on the human body surrounded by health is always beneficial. Professor reminded, in the cell phone dialing launch do not rush close to the ear, when connected and then close, in order to reduce the cell phone in the Internet launch moment produced by high-intensity electromagnetic radiation; to reduce the frequency of cell phone use as far as possible. Controversy over whether cell phone electromagnetic radiation is hazardous to human health Peter Angelos, an attorney in the United States, is currently working for the Maryland Department of Justice. Peter Angelos attorney currently for the State of Maryland suffering from glioma neurologist Christopher Newman Professor of 10 domestic and international lawsuits. Professor Christopher Newman, a neurologist suffering from glioma in Maryland, is currently representing 10 cell phone manufacturers and network operators in the United States and abroad in a claim for 800 million U.S. dollars. On July 27 of last year, the UK Department for Education issued a notice banning the use of cell phones by students under the age of 16 years. In a research report attached to this notice, it was said that children’s nervous system is in the developmental stage, and their resistance to cell phone radiation is particularly fragile, which makes it easier for them to absorb the energy in cell phone radiation. In January, a comparative study of 593 patients with ocular retinal melanoma by Dr. André of the University of Essen in Germany found that the prevalence of the disease was three times higher in those who used cell phones regularly than in those who used them less often. Professor Gale of the University of London, who researches human brain nerves and cells, wrote an article pointing out that after letting normal white rats continuously receive 4 hours of radio wave radiation with a frequency range similar to that of cell phone radiation, the brain cells and DNA structure of white rats showed signs of being damaged. However, some cell phone manufacturers, telecommunications experts and some medical and biological experts believe that cell phones are harmless to humans. British cell phone production giant Vodafone said that the most comprehensive study of cell phone radiation conducted so far has shown that both cell phones and transmitting base stations are harmless to the human body, but he never refuted that there is a link between cell phones and brain tumors, claiming that further research is needed. Singapore communications experts on cell phone radiation rigorous testing shows that the cell phone on the surrounding objects radiation warming will not exceed 0.15 ℃, WHO stipulates the most stringent thermal damage warming standards for 0.25 ℃, so the phone does not produce serious harm to the human body. The German Institute of Communications Research explains that long-term cell phone antenna side of the Department of heat, numbness, memory loss, dizziness, blurred vision for human fatigue phenomenon, has nothing to do with the use of cell phones. Motorola’s professional research institutions clearly indicated that each cell phone in the design is to comply with the strict requirements of the International Telecommunication Union, the implementation of rigorous testing, in which biochemical radiation is one of the main test content. At the end of 2000, the international authoritative medical journal “Journal of the American Medical Association” published a survey report completed by 8 medical experts after 5 years, the content of which is that the incidence of brain tumors is not related to the use of cell phones after long-term follow-up of 900 cell phone users. Harmful? Harmless? Three or four years later to see the difference is not too late The debate on whether cell phones are hazardous to human health has drawn the attention of the World Health Organization, which is affiliated with the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which initiated a two-year study of cell phone radiation and brain tissue damage in 13 countries, and will publish the final results in 2004. The results of a French study comparing 1,500 brain tumor patients with a healthy population in order to monitor the relationship between cell phone use and the development of brain tumors will also not be available until the end of 2003. It seems that the initial authoritative arbitration results should be 3-4 years away. It is said that the brain tumor patient in the 304 Hospital is no longer afraid to use the cell phone, after 8 years of use, he understands whether it is a little late, and we do not know whether more of us consumers will suffer from illnesses related to cell phone radiation in the next 4 years.
