The effects of electromagnetic waves emitted by the cell phones on the testicular tissue

掲載誌: Arch Ital Urol Androl 2014; 86 (4): 274-277

この研究は、携帯電話放射する電磁波(EMW)がラット精巣に与える影響を調べた。成獣の雄のアルビノラットは7匹ずつの3群に分けた。第1群(通話モードのEMWを1日8時間、20日間)、第2群(通話モードのEMWを1日24時間、20日間)、対照群であり、ばく露終了後に精巣組織検査を行った。その結果、光学顕微鏡検査で、第1、2群では、精巣にさまざまな組織変化が、対照群に比べ有意に観察された、と報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

The effects of exposure of rats to the electromagnetic field from a mobile phone on testes histology should be investigated.

詳細情報

21 male adult rats were divided into the following groups (n=7, respectively): 1) exposure to a mobile phone for 24 hours/day (8 hours talk mode, 16 hours standby mode) for 20 days, 2) similar to group 1 and additional subsequent continuous exposure to the mobile phone in standby mode for further 20 days (total of 40 days), 3) control group.
(remark EMF-Portal: there are contradictory and unclear specifications on the exposure patterns in the abstract and methods section)

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

Groups 1 and 2 showed significant histopathological changes compared to the control group, including a high number of immature cells in the lumen of the seminiferous tubules, irregular tubules with reduced spermatogenic cells and tubules without lumen. No differences were detected between groups 1 and 2.
The authors conclude that exposure of rats to the electromagnetic field from a mobile phone might cause histopathological changes in testes.
