Mobile phones are two-way radios that emit electromagnetic radiation in microwave range. As the number of mobile phone users has reached 6 billion, the bioeffects of exposure to mobile phone radiation and mobile phone electromagnetic interference with electronic equipment have received more attention, globally. As self-monitoring of blood glucose can be a beneficial part of diabetes control, ho...

Mobile phone usage is nearing 90% of the world population. Harmful effects of Electromagnetic (EMG) radiation have been a concern for regulation. Safe Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) as watt/kg is defined for thermal effects, but EMG has non thermal effects as well. EMG can affect genes, neural tissue, endocrine regulation and sperms. Research workers have pointed out the mechanism of EMG radiat...

Background Mobile phone has played an increasingly important role in people’s lives; however, there is a global concern that it may cause adverse effects on health. This study aimed to assess the effect of educational intervention based on Health Belief Model (HBM) to d...

Despite the widespread use of mobail phones in Iranian students, psychological and behavioral effects of addiction to it and its consequences have not been investigated yet. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between cell phone dependency with psychological disorders and academic burnout among nursing and midwifery students.
