Another study connecting mobiles and brain cancer

[Guest guest]

http://www.powerwatch.org.uk/news/20070103_mobile_phones_cancer.asp Summary: This is yet another study from Lennart Hardell, Kjell Hansson Mild et al that has found statistically significant increases in cancer from prolonged mobile phone usage, with the following conclusions: "We found for all studied phone types an increased risk for brain tumours, mainly acoustic neuroma and malignant brain tumours. OR increased with latency period, especially for astrocytoma grade III-IV. No consistent pattern of an increased risk was found for salivary gland tumours, NHL, or testicular cancer." This is an interesting analysis of much of their previous work, and shows that with further pooled analysis the same trends are found.

Funding needs to be available to conduct further research attempting to replicate Hardell et al's work, using the same controls and exposure metrics as they have.
