    Long-term exposure to microwave radiation provokes cancer growth: evidences from radars and mobile communication systems.

    In this review we discuss alarming epidemiological and experimental data on possible carcinogenic effects of long term exposure to low intensity microwave (MW) radiation. Recently, a number of reports revealed that under certain conditions the irradiation by low intensity MW can substantially induce cancer progression in humans and in animal models. The carcinogenic effect of MW irradiation is typically manifested after long term (up to 10 years and more) exposure. Nevertheless, even a year of operation of a powerful base transmitting station for mobile communication reportedly resulted in a dramatic increase of cancer incidence among population living nearby.

    1370: Autoimmune Process after Long-Term Low-Level (non-thermal) Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields

    The following research from Russia is important in that it identifies an non-thermal effect from RF exposure. However 500 µW/cm2 is not what I would consider a low-level exposure (even though non-thermal) and thus the relevance to mobile phone base station emissions is debatable. Comments invited.
