In this study, we aimed to investigate whether 1800 MHz frequency electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has an effect on bone healing.
A total of 30 Wistar albino rats were divided into two equal groups. Fractures were created in the right tibias of all rats; next, intramedullary fixations with K-wire were performed. A control group (Group I) was kept under the same experimental conditions except without EMR exposure. Rats in Group II were exposed to an 1800 MHz frequency EMR for 30 min a day for 5 days a week. Next, radiological, mechanical, and histological examinations were performed to evaluate tibial fracture healing.
Radiological, histological and mechanical scores were not significantly different between groups (respectively, p = 0.114, p = 0.184 and p = 0.083), and all of these scores were lower than those of the controls.
EMR at 1800 MHz frequency emitted from cellular phones has no effect on bone fracture healing.
本研究旨在探讨 1800MHz 频率电磁辐射(EMR)是否对骨愈合有影响。
将 30 只 Wistar 白化大鼠随机分为两组。所有大鼠的右侧胫骨均造成骨折;然后进行髓内 K 线固定。对照组(I 组)保持在相同的实验条件下,但不进行 EMR 暴露。II 组大鼠每天暴露于 1800MHz 频率的 EMR 中 30 分钟,每周 5 天。然后进行影像学、力学和组织学检查以评估胫骨骨折愈合情况。
两组的影像学、组织学和力学评分无显著差异(分别为 p=0.114、p=0.184 和 p=0.083),且所有评分均低于对照组。
