I read the same thing here: moneycentral.msn.com This week, the journal Epidemiology carried the first scientific report of cancer caused by cell phones. The author, Dr. Andreas Stang of the University of Essen in Germany, cautioned that the work needed confirmation. Stang's study included 118 people with the eye cancer uveal melanoma, and 475 people without this cancer. Researchers who were unaware of the health status of their interviewees asked questions about cell-phone use, including data on average use per time period per person. The study found a 300% increase in this form of eye cancer among those who regularly used cell phones. One critic called the study flawed because it did not include measurements of the actual dosages received by subjects. Although no direct mechanism has yet been described, an earlier, unrelated study had indicated that microwave (cell-spectrum) radiation caused melanocytes in the uveal layer of the eye (the iris and base layer) to divide more rapidly. Because uveal melanoma appears to start with such cells, a mechanism suggests itself which may be tested in the future.
