Effects of mobile phone exposure on biochemical parameters of cord blood: A preliminary study

(2018)
Method

The study carried on 149 pregnant women divided into four groups such as nonusers of mobile phone (n: 37; control group), 2–15 min/d (n: 39; group 1), 15–60 min/d (n: 37; group 2) and participants using mobile phone for more than 60 min/d (n: 36; group 3). Cord blood of the infants was taken in all groups for biochemical analyses immediately after birth

Source
Radiofrequencies (RFs) emitted from mobile phones
Result

The results of the study showed that the biggest foetal impact was observed in the third study group which was pregnant exposed RFRs (RF radiation) more than 1 h/d (1 hour per day). AST (aspartat aminotransferaz), ALT (alanine aminotransferase), LDH (lactate dehydrogenase), CK (creatine kinase), CK–MB (creatine kinase–miyocardial band), CRP (c-reactive protein), PCT (procalcitonin), TnT (troponin T), uric acid and lactate levels of third group were found higher than the other groups (p < 0.001). However, Mean platelet volume values of third group were found lower than the other groups (p < 0.001)
