Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone
close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the
brain closest to the antenna (天线). But whether that causes any harm is not
clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last
month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between
cell phones and brain cancer. "What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism (代谢)
(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to
a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna," said Dr. Nora Volkow of the
NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical
Association. (76) {{U}}The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to
electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals.{{/U}}
Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation
(电磁辐射) from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings
do not shed any light on whether cell phones cause cancer. "This study does not
in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is
sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures." Use of the
devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early
1980s, with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide.
Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain
cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a
clear answer to this. Volkow's team studied 47 people who had their brain
examined while a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the
phone was turned off. While there was no complete change in brain metabolism,
they found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the
cell phone antenna when the phone was on. (77) {{U}}Experts said
the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care.
{{/U}}" Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose
metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require
further investigation," Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U.S.
and Dr. Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in
JAMA. "Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects."
They wrote.
