“Mobile Phone Use and Brain Tumour Risk – COSMOS, a Prospective Cohort Study,” Environment InternationalMarch 1, 2024. “Our findings suggest that the cumulative amount of mobile phone use is not associated with the risk of developing glioma, meningioma or acoustic neuroma.” Yet, there appears to be support for unexplained reports of increases in GBMs in the same COSMOS countries.

A Meta-Analysis of the Risk of Salivary Gland Tumors Associated with Mobile Phone Use: The Importance of Correct Exposure Assessment,” Reviews of Environmental Health, July 21, 2022. “This meta-analysis found no significant association between mobile phone usage and salivary gland tumors. However, these results were susceptible to selection and recall bias, and were predicated on poor exposure assessment, precluding firm conclusions from being drawn.” From Australia

Senior environmental health scientists are calling for JAMA Oncology to retract a review of RF radiation and cancer by David Robert Grimes, a physicist at Dublin City University.*

Grimes’s paper, which was posted on the journal’s website on December 9th, has prompted a barrage of letters of protest to Nora Disis, the editor of JAMA Oncology.

Among those calling for retraction is Linda Birnbaum, who, for ten years, 2009-2019, was the director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) and the National Toxicology Program (NTP). Ronald Melnick, who led the team that designed the NTP RF–cancer study, is another harsh critic.

Review of Published Literature between 2008 and 2018 of Relevance to Radiofrequency Radiation and Cancer, U.S. FDA, released February 10, 2020.

“[T]here is insufficient evidence to support a causal association between RFR exposure and tumorigenesis. There is a lack of clear dose-response relationship, a lack of consistent findings or specificity and a lack of biological mechanistic plausibility.”
