\u00abInterphone<\/em>\u00bb es el nombre de uno de los mayores proyectos de investigaci\u00f3n para estudiar la incidencia de c\u00e1nceres cerebrales en los usuarios de tel\u00e9fonos m\u00f3viles. Los resultados preliminares se han publicado hoy en el diario \u00abThe Daily Telegraph<\/em> [[Martin Beckford and Robert Winnett, The Daily Telegraph, 24 Oct 2009<\/em><\/p>\n

Long-term use of mobile phones ‘may be linked to cancer’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Long-term use of mobile phones may be linked to some cancers, a landmark international study will conclude later this year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A \u00a320million, decade-long investigation overseen by the World Health Organisation (WHO) will publish evidence that heavy users face a higher risk of developing brain tumours later in life, The Daily Telegraph<\/em> can disclose.<\/p>\n

The conclusion, while not definitive, will undermine assurances from the government that the devices are safe and is expected to put ministers under pressure to issue stronger guidance.<\/p>\n

A preliminary breakdown of the results found a \u201csignificantly increased risk<\/em>\u201d of some brain tumours \u201crelated to use of mobile phones for a period of 10 years or more<\/em>\u201d in some studies.<\/p>\n

The head of the Interphone investigation said that the report would include a \u201cpublic health message<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Britain\u2019s Department of Health has not updated its guidance for more than four years. It says that \u201cthe current balance of evidence does not show health problems caused by using mobile phones<\/em>\u201d, and suggests only that children be \u201c discouraged<\/em> <\/em>\u201d from making \u201cnon-essential<\/em>\u201d calls while adults should \u201ckeep calls short<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

In contrast, several other countries, notably France, have begun strengthening warnings and American politicians are urgently investigating the risks.<\/p>\n

The Interphone inquiry has been investigating whether exposure to mobile phones is linked to three types of brain tumour and a tumour of the salivary gland.<\/p>\n

Its head, Dr Elisabeth Cardis, backed new warnings.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the absence of definitive results and in the light of a number of studies which, though limited, suggest a possible effect of radiofrequency radiation, precautions are important<\/em>,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am therefore globally in agreement with the idea of restricting the use by children, though I would not go as far as banning mobile phones as they can be a very important tool, not only in emergencies, but also maintaining contact between children and their parents and thus playing a reassurance role\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeans to reduce our exposure<\/em> (use of hands-free kits and moderating our use of phones) are also interesting<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

The project conducted studies in 13 countries, interviewing tumour sufferers and people in good health to see whether their mobile phone use differed. It questioned about 12.800 people between 2000 and 2004.<\/p>\n

Previous research into the health effects of mobile phones, in the short time they have been in use, has proved inconclusive. However, a breakdown of the latest findings, seen by The Daily Telegraph<\/em>, shows that six of eight Interphone studies found some rise in the risk of glioma (the most common brain tumour), with one finding a 39 per cent increase.<\/p>\n

Two of seven studies into acoustic neurinoma (a benign tumour of a nerve between the ear and brain) reported a higher risk after using mobiles for 10 years. A Swedish report said it was 3.9 times higher.<\/p>\n

A summary said a definitive link could not be proved because of difficulties with subjects\u2019 memories.<\/p>\n

An Israeli study found heavy users were about 50 per cent more likely to suffer tumours of the parotid salivary gland.<\/p>\n

The Interphone inquiry has faced criticism for including people who made just one call a week, and leaving out children, which some experts said could underplay the risks. Some results for short-term use appeared to show protection against cancer, suggesting flaws in the study.<\/p>\n

The final paper, funded partly by the industry, has been delayed as its authors argued over how to present the conclusions. But it has been sent to a scientific journal and will be published before the end of the year.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for the Health Protection Agency<\/em> said there was \u201cno hard evidence at present<\/em>\u201d of harm to health. Use by children for non-essential calls should be discouraged, he added.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for the Mobile Operators Association<\/em> said more than 30 scientific reviews had found no adverse health effects.<\/p>\n

Supervisado por la Organizaci\u00f3n Mundial de la Salud, ha sido dirigido por Elisabeth Cardis, profesora del Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n en Epidemiolog\u00eda Ambiental<\/em> (CREAL) de Barcelona. El estudio ha durado una d\u00e9cada y ha costado 22 millones de euros tras entrevistar a 12.800 personas (sanos y enfermos de tumores) en 13 pa\u00edses.<\/p>\n

Las conclusiones preliminares indican que existe \u00abun riesgo significativamente mayor<\/em>\u00bb de padecer un tumor cerebral \u00abrelacionado con la utilizaci\u00f3n de tel\u00e9fonos m\u00f3viles durante un periodo de diez a\u00f1os o m\u00e1s<\/em>\u00bb por el efecto de radiaci\u00f3n de radiofrecuencia. El estudio no es concluyente (como todos los que se han publicado) pero indica que seis de los ocho estudios de \u00abInterphone<\/em>\u00bb revelan un mayor riesgo de padecer glioma (el tumor cerebral m\u00e1s com\u00fan). Por ello los responsables de la investigaci\u00f3n abogan por restringir el uso de m\u00f3viles por ni\u00f1os y la utilizaci\u00f3n de \u00abmanos-libres<\/em>\u00bb en estos aparatos.<\/p>\n

Aunque el estudio cuestiona las garant\u00edas que suelen dar los gobiernos sobre la seguridad de los m\u00f3viles desde la Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n de la Salud<\/em> (HPA) del Reino Unido, un portavoz manifest\u00f3 que, \u00abde momento, no hay pruebas s\u00f3lidas<\/em>\u00bb sobre los efectos nocivos del uso de m\u00f3viles. Por su parte, un portavoz de la Asociaci\u00f3n de Operadores de Telefon\u00eda M\u00f3vil<\/em> apunt\u00f3 que \u00abm\u00e1s del 30 por ciento de los estudios cient\u00edficos sobre ese asunto no han hallado ning\u00fan impacto negativo para la salud<\/em>\u00ab.<\/p>\n
