Teléfonos móviles y tumor cerebral

El mayor estudio sobre el uso de teléfonos móviles y el riesgo de padecer un tumor cerebral no ha podido encontrar ninguna relación, según informa la BBC. El estudio se realizó con 2.782 personas, y viene a calmar los temores de mucha gente. Eso sí, que no se encuentre una relación no quiere decir necesariamente que no exista -aunque muchos estudios ofrecen el mismo resultado negativo- o que una posterior investigación a más largo plazo no pueda encontrar nada:

The National Radiological Protection Board said the research was good news, but that it did not give mobile phones a clean bill of health.

The board said it would not be changing its advice that children should not make unnecessary mobile phone calls.

Dr Kat Arney, science information officer at Cancer Research UK, said research such as this was vital for getting to the environmental causes of cancer.

“This is the biggest and most thorough study into mobile phones and glioma so far, and it adds to the growing evidence that there is no link.

“Although we still don’t know about the very long-term effects of phone use, these results are reassuring for everyone with a mobile.”
