The radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMR) produced by cell phones can enhance the excitability of the brain and has recently been classified as carcinogenic. The suggested use of hands-free kits lowers the exposure to the brain, but it might theoretically increase exposure to the reproductive organs. This report summarizes the potential effects of RF-EMR on reproductive potentials in both males and females.
A critical review of the literature pertaining to the impact of cell phone RF-EMR on reproduction in male and female animals and humans was performed, with a focus on gonad metabolism, apoptosis of reproductive cells, fertility status, and serum reproductive hormones.
While some animal and human studies revealed alterations in reproductive physiology in both males and females, others did not report any association. The in vitro and in vivo studies to date are highly diverse, very inconsistent in conduct and, in many cases, report different primary outcomes.
The increasing use of cell phone warrants well-designed studies to ascertain the effect of their RF-EMR on reproduction.
手机产生的射频电磁辐射(RF-EMR)可以增强大脑的兴奋性,最近已被归类为致癌物质。建议使用免提套件可以降低大脑的暴露程度,但理论上可能会增加对生殖器官的暴露。本报告总结了 RF-EMR 对男性和女性生殖潜力的潜在影响。
对有关手机 RF-EMR 对雄性和雌性动物及人类生殖影响的文献进行了批判性回顾,重点关注性腺代谢、生殖细胞凋亡、生育状况和血清生殖激素。
虽然一些动物和人体研究显示男性和女性的生殖生理学发生了改变,但其他研究并未报告任何关联。迄今为止,体外和体内研究差异很大,在实施过程中非常不一致,而且在许多情况下报告了不同的主要结果。
手机的使用越来越多,需要进行精心设计的研究来确定其 RF-EMR 对生殖的影响。
