Cell phone users 240 % more prone to brain tumors

A new Swedishstudy hasfound that heavy users of cell phones had a 240 percent increase inbrain tumors on the side of their head that the phone was usedon. The study defined 'heavy' use as more than 2,000 total hours,or approximately one hour of use per workday for 10 years. Anearlier Britishstudy was previously discussedhere that didn't find an increased risk, although that studycovered fewer subjects and only followed one type of brain tumor for ashorter period of time. Or course, the biggest epidemiologicalstudy of all is the one we are all participating in whenever we use ourcell phone. The results from that study won't be available for awhile.
