The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of exposure to cell phone electromagnetic radiation on the frequency of micronuclei, broken eggs cells, binucleated cells, and karyorrhexis in epithelial cells of the oral mucosa. The sample was composed of 60 cell phone users, who were non-smokers and non-drinkers, and had no clinically visible oral lesions. Cells were obtained from anatomical ...

We describe a prototype emergency and disaster information system designed and implemented using DDDAS concepts. The system is designed to use real-time cell phone calling data from a geographical region, including calling activity – who calls whom, call duration, services in use, and cell phone location information – to provide enhanced situational awareness for managers in emergency operation...

The traditional SLA classroom has been radically redefined by the advent of virtual learning communities. Computer-mediated language learning has become significant, and increased use is made of wireless networked mobile computers to facilitate internet-based language learning. Meanwhile, cell phones are becoming ubiquitous. Students presume their right to personal use during class, frustrating...

Audible interference from digital cellular telephones (cell phones) has been a long standing problem for hearing aid users. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has lifted the hearing aid compatibility exception on cell phones and imposed a set of requirements effective September 2005. We conducted an experiment to determine how well hearing aid wearers are able to use commercially avail...

Background:As the use of mobile phones is increasing, public concern about the harmful effects of radiation emitted by these devices is also growing. In addition, protection questions and biological effects are among growing concerns which have remained largely unanswered. Stem cells are useful models to assess the effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) on other cell lines. S...

this study investigate information and communication technology influence on opposite sex relationship. current survey is based on questionnaires data. selected census population is 395 of shiraz city youths (age 18-30) chose using lin table and cluster method with estimated error of 5%. the results of this investigation shows that relationship with opposite sex depends on several factors such ...

background: use of cellular phones emitting radiofrequency electromagnetic field (rf-emf) has been increased exponentially and become a part of everyday life. this study aimed to investigate the effects of in vitro rf-emf exposure emitted from cellular phones on sperm motility index, sperm dna fragmentation and seminal clusterin (clu) gene expression. materials and methods: in this prospective ...
