Schlafstörungen, Unruhezustände, Lernstörungen bei Kindern, beschleunigtes Krebswachstum, Blutbild- und Erbgutveränderungen, ist das für den Abbau der UMTS-Sender nicht ausreichend?

Es stimmt einfach nicht, daß es "keinen wissenschaftlichen Nachweis für gesundheitliche Gefahren" gibt. Es gibt unzählige seriöse Studien aus dem In- und Ausland, die die Schädlichkeit des gepulsten Mobilfunks beweisen.

Renommierte Wissenschaftler schlagen bezüglich EMF- und HF-Emissionsgefahren Alarm; deutsche Grenzwerte sind nicht sicher!

Albany, New York (ots/PRNewswire) - Eine internationale Arbeitsgruppe renommierter Wissenschaftler, Forscher und Gesundheitspolitik-Experten (The BioInitiative Working Group) hat ihren Bericht über den Einfluss elektromagnetischer Felder (EMFs) auf die Gesundheit veröffentlicht.

Der Bericht äussert schwere Bedenken zur Sicherheit von existierenden öffentlichen Grenzwerten, die regulieren, wie viel EMF von Stromleitungen, Handys und vielen anderen Quellen der EMF-Belastung im täglichen Leben zulässig ist.

Der Bericht trägt die wissenschaftlichen Beweise zusammen, die Bedenken über den Einfluss auf die Gesundheit von Menschen erheben, einschliesslich Kinderleukämie (von Stromleitungen und anderen elektrischen Emissionen), Gehirntumoren und Akustikusneurinomen (von Handys und schnurlosen Telefonen) sowie Alzheimerkrankheit. Es liegen Beweise vor, dass EMFs ein Risikofaktor für Krebs sowohl bei Kindern als auch bei Erwachsenen sind. EMFs von Quellen wie Starkstromleitungen, elektrischen Gebäudeverdrahtungen sowie Erdungsvorrichtungen von Gebäuden und Geräten werden mit erhöhten Risiken von Kinderleukämie in Zusammenhang gebracht und können später im Leben die Weichen für Krebs bei Erwachsenen stellen. Der Bericht der BioInitiative, der am Freitag, den 31. August 2007 veröffentlicht werden wird, dokumentiert die wissenschaftlichen Beweise dafür, dass EMF-Emissionen von Stromleitungen jedes Jahr für Hunderte neuer Fälle von Kinderleukämie in den Vereinigten Staaten und anderen Ländern der Welt verantwortlich sind.

Wireless-Technologien, die Hochfrequenzstrahlung (HF) zum Versenden von E-Mail-Nachrichten und Sprachkommunikation verwenden, sind tausende Male stärker als die Pegel, die Berichten zufolge Schlafstörungen, Kopfschmerzen, Gedächtnis- und Konzentrationsprobleme sowie andere gesundheitsschädigende Symptome verursachen. Der Gesundheitspolitik Experte und Mitherausgeber des Berichts, Dr. David O. Carpenter, Direktor am Institute for Health and the Environment der University of Albany im US-Bundesstaat New York, erklärte: Dieser Bericht sendet eine Warnung, dass die langfristige Belastung durch bestimmte Arten von EMFs starke negative Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit haben kann.

Daher ist nun eine sorgfältige Planung der öffentlichen Gesundheit gefordert, um Krebs und neurologische Erkrankungen zu verhindern, die mit den Emissionen von Stromleitungen und anderen EMF-Quellen in Zusammenhang gebracht werden. Wir müssen die Öffentlichkeit und unsere Entscheidungsträger darüber aufklären, dass es nicht wie gewohnt weitergehen kann. Mitherausgeber Cindy Sage von Sage Associates bestätigte: Experten für Gesundheitspolitik und EMF-Richtlinien haben nun ihre Einschätzung der Beweislast vorgelegt. Die existierenden FCC- und internationalen Emissionsgrenzwerte für EMF- und HF-Strahlung in der Öffentlichkeit und im Arbeitsumfeld schützen die öffentliche Gesundheit nicht in ausreichendem Masse. Basierend auf der Gesamtlast der Beweise sind neue Grenzwerte für die öffentliche Sicherheit und Beschränkungen der weiteren Entwicklung von risikoreichen Technologien angebracht.





University of Albany, New York- August 31 / Serious Public Health Concerns Raised Over Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) from Power Lines and Cell Phones An international working group of scientists, researchers and public health policy professionals (The BioInitiative Working Group) has released its report on electromagnetic fields (EMF) and health.

It raises serious concern about the safety of existing public limits that regulate how much EMF is allowable from power lines, cell phones, and many other sources of EMF exposure in daily life.

Electromagnetic radiation from such sources as electric power lines, interior wiring and grounding of buildings and appliances are linked to increased risks for childhood leukemia and may set the stage for adult cancers later in life. A report from the BioInitiative Working Group (www.bioinitiative.org) released on Friday, August 31st documents the scientific evidence that power line EMF exposure is responsible for hundreds of new cases of childhood leukemia every year in the United States and around the world.

The report provides detailed scientific information on health impacts when people are exposed to electromagnetic radiation hundreds or even thousands of times below limits currently established by the Federal Communications Commission (US FCC) and International Commission for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection in Europe (ICNIRP). The authors reviewed more than 2000 scientific studies and reviews, and concluded that the existing public safety limits are inadequate to protect public health. From a public health policy standpoint, new public safety limits, and limits on further deployment of risky technologies are warranted based on the total weigh of evidence.

The report documents scientific evidence raising worries about childhood leukemia (from power lines and other electrical exposures), brain tumors and acoustic neuromas (from cell and cordless phones) and Alzheimer's disease. There is evidence that EMF is a risk factor for both childhood and adult cancers. Public health expert and co-editor of the Report Dr. David Carpenter, Director, Institute for Health and the Environment at the University of Albany, New York says

"this report stands as a wake-up call that long-term exposure to some kinds of EMF may cause serious health effects. Good public health planning is needed now to prevent cancers and neurological diseases linked to exposure to power lines and other sources of EMF. We need to educate people and our decisionmakers that "business as usual" is unacceptable."

This report has been written by 14 (fourteen) scientists, public health and public policy experts to document the scientific evidence on electromagnetic fields. Another dozen outside reviewers have looked at and refined the Report.

The purpose of this report is to assess scientific evidence on health impacts from
electromagnetic radiation below current public exposure limits and evaluate what changes in these limits are warranted now to reduce possible public health risks in the future.

Not everything is known yet about this subject; but what is clear is that the existing public safety standards limiting these radiation levels in nearly every country of the world look to be thousands of times too lenient. Changes are needed.

New approaches are needed to educate decision-makers and the public about sources of exposure and to find alternatives that do not pose the same level of possible health risks, while there is still time to make changes.
The clear consensus of the BioInitiative Working Group members is that the existing public safety limits are inadequate for both ELF and RF.

These proposals reflect the evidence that a positive assertion of safety with respect to chronic exposure to low-intensity levels of ELF and RF cannot be made. As with many other standards for environmental exposures, these proposed limits may not be totally protective, but more stringent standards are not realistic at the present time.

Even a small increased risk for cancer and neurodegenerative diseases translates into an enormous public health consequence. Regulatory action for ELF and preventative actions for RF are warranted at this time to reduce exposures and inform the public of the potential for increased risk; at what levels of chronic exposure these risks may be present; and what measures may be taken to reduce risks.

It appears it is the INFORMATION conveyed by electromagnetic radiation (rather than heat) that causes biological changes - some of these biological changes may lead to loss of wellbeing, disease and even death.
There may be no lower limit at which exposures do not affect us. Until we know if there is a lower limit below which bioeffects and adverse health impacts do not occur, it is unwise from a public health perspective to continue "business-as-usual" deploying new technologies that increase ELF and RF exposures, particularly involuntary exposures.
There is little doubt that exposure to ELF causes childhood leukemia.
There is some evidence that other childhood cancers may be related to ELF exposure but not enough studies have been done.
Children who have leukemia and are in recovery have poorer survival rates if their ELF exposure at home (or where they are recovering) is between 1mG and 2 mG in one study; over 3 mG in another study.
New ELF public exposure limits are warranted at this time, given the existing scientific evidence and need for public health policy intervention and prevention.
People who have used a cell phone for ten years or more have higher rates of malignant brain tumor and acoustic neuromas. It is worse if the cell phone has been used primarily on one side of the head.
People who have used a cordless phone for ten years or more have higher rates of malignant brain tumor and acoustic neuromas. It is worse if the cordless phone has been used primarily on one side of the head.
The current standard for exposure to the emissions of cell phones and cordless phones is not safe considering studies reporting long-term brain tumor and acoustic neuroma risks.
The evidence from studies on women in the workplace rather strongly suggests that ELF is a risk factor for breast cancer for women with long-term exposures of 10 mG and higher.
Given the very high lifetime risks for developing breast cancer, and the critical importance of prevention; ELF exposures should be reduced for all people who are in high ELF environments for prolonged periods of time.
Studies of human breast cancer cells and some animal studies show that ELF is likely to be a risk factor for breast cancer. There is supporting evidence for a link between breast cancer and exposure to ELF that comes from cell and animal studies, as well as studies of human breast cancers.
Alzheimer's disease is a disease of the nervous system. There is strong evidence that longterm exposure to ELF is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.
There is little doubt that electromagnetic fields emitted by cell phones and cell phone use affect electrical activity of the brain.
Changes in the way in which the brain and nervous system react depend very much on the specific exposures. Most studies only look at short-term effects, so the long-term consequences of exposures are not known.
The consequence of prolonged exposures to children, whose nervous systems continue to develop until late adolescence, is unknown at this time. This could have serious implications to adult health and functioning in society if years of exposure of the young to both ELF and RF result in diminished capacity for thinking, judgment, memory, learning, and control over behavior.
The effects of long-term exposure to wireless technologies including emissions from cell phones and other personal devices, and from whole-body exposure to RF transmissions from cell towers and antennas is simply not known yet with certainty. However, the body of evidence at hand suggests that bioeffects and health impacts can and do occur at exquisitely low exposure levels: levels that can be thousands of times below public safety limits.
Both ELF and RF exposures can be considered genotoxic (will damage DNA) under certain conditions of exposure, including exposure levels that are lower than existing safety limits.
Very low-level ELF and RF exposures can cause cells to produce stress proteins, meaning that the cell recognizes ELF and RF exposures as harmful. This is another important way in which scientists have documented that ELF and RF exposures can be harmful, and it happens at levels far below the existing public safety standards.
There is substantial evidence that ELF and RF can cause inflammatory reactions, allergy reactions and change normal immune function at levels allowed by current public safety standards.
Oxidative stress through the action of free radical damage to DNA is a plausible biological mechanism for cancer and diseases that involve damage from ELF to the central nervous system.
Medical conditions are successfully treated using EMFs at levels below current public safety standards, proving another way that the body recognizes and responds to low-intensity EMF signals. Otherwise, these medical treatments could not work. The FDA has approved EMFs medical treatment devices, so is clearly aware of this paradox.
No one would recommend that drugs used in medical treatments and prevention of disease be randomly given to the public, especially to children. Yet, random and involuntary exposures to EMFs occur all the time in daily life.
- The scientific evidence is sufficient to warrant regulatory action for ELF; and it is substantial enough to warrant preventative actions for RF.
- The standard of evidence for judging the emerging scientific evidence necessary to take action should be proportionate to the impacts on health and well-being
- The exposures are widespread.
- Widely accepted standards for judging the science are used in this assessment.

CONCLUSIONS

- We cannot afford ‘business as usual” any longer. It is time that planning for new power lines and for new homes, schools and other habitable spaces around them is done with routine provision for low-ELF environments . The business-as-usual deployment of new wireless technologies is likely to be risky and harder to change if society does not make some educated decisions about limits soon. Research must continue to define what levels of RF related to new wireless technologies are acceptable; but more research should not prevent or delay substantive changes today that might save money, lives and societal disruption tomorrow.

- New regulatory limits for ELF are warranted. ELF limits should be set below those exposure levels that have been linked in childhood leukemia studies to increased risk of disease, plus an additional safety factor. It is no longer acceptable to build new power lines and electrical facilities that place people in ELF environments that have been determined to be risky (at levels generally at 2 mG and above).

- While new ELF limits are being developed and implemented, a reasonable approach would be a 1 mG planning limit for habitable space adjacent to all new or upgraded power lines and a 2 mG Summary for the Public Ms. Sage limit for all other new construction, It is also recommended for that a 1 mG limit be established for existing habitable space for children and/or women who are pregnant . This recommendation is based on the assumption that a higher burden of protection is required for children who cannot protect themselves, and who are at risk for childhood leukemia at rates that are traditionally high enough to trigger regulatory action. This situation in particular warrants extending the 1 mG limit to existing occupied space. "Establish" in this case probably means formal public advisories from relevant health agencies.

- While it is not realistic to reconstruct all existing electrical distributions systems, in the short term; steps to reduce exposure from these existing systems need to be initiated, especially in places where children spend time, and should be encouraged.

- A precautionary limit of 1000 (µW/m2 (which is also 0.614 Volts per meter) should be adopted for outdoor, cumulative RF exposure. This reflects the current RF science and prudent public health response that would reasonably be set for pulsed RF (ambient) exposures where people live, work and go to school. This level of RF is experienced as whole-body exposure, and can be a chronic exposure where there is wireless coverage present for voice and data transmission for cell phones, pagers and PDAs and other sources of radiofrequency radiation. Some studies and many anecdotal reports on ill health have been reported at lower levels than this; however, for the present time, it could prevent some of the most disproportionate burdens placed on the public nearest to such installations. Although this RF target level does not preclude further rollout of WI-FI technologies, we also recommend that wired alternatives to WI-FI be implemented, particularly in schools and libraries so that children are not subjected to elevated RF levels until more is understood about possible health impacts. This recommendation should be seen as an interim precautionary limit that is intended to guide preventative actions; and more conservative limits may be needed in the future.

Testung der Elektrosensibilität, Testing Procedure for Electrosensitivity and testing at Essex University

Dr. Lebrecht von Klitzing

from "Martin Weatherall" weather <im> golden.net
26 Jul 2007

Hi All

The link below is to the British Daily Telegraph newspaper. Unfortunately the Telegraph have made a serious error with their title, because that is not what the story is about and it simply, is not true.

The story is about electro hypersensitivity and testing at Essex University. EHS volunteers failed to identify exposure to cell phone emissions, but there are good reasons why this happened.

If you look at the readers comments below the newspaper article you will find at least five people who have given good reasons why the testing failed. You will also find ignorant comments from stupid people who either do not know what they are talking about or they are deliberately trying to confuse the true situation.

The e-mail attachment above - Essex EHS Study.eml, will show you very good reasons why the testing was a failure.

The other document that is attached is about the EHS testing that is done at a clinic in Wiesenthal, Germany. I have no reports as to the effectiveness of the clinic's testing procedure.

Testing Procedure for Electosensitivity

To evaluate the level of electrosensitivity, the capacity for bioregulation, i.e. the adaptability of the biological system with regard to environmental factors, is tested. The reactions of the vegetative nervous system to pulsed electromagnetic fields as used in mobile telecommunications are examined.

Heart rate variability (i.e. variability in the sequencing of the individual heart actions), microcirculation (the dynamics of the circulation in capillary vessels) and active electrical skin potentials are recognised as objective parameters, which cannot by directly influenced by the psyche.

By using these parameters, assessments can be made of the actual state of the biosystem, existing pre-damage (chemical poisoning, allergies etc) as well as the activity of bioregulation.

DIAGNOSTICS

Examination procedure

No invasive techniques are used and no pharmaceuticals are administered during the testing of the bioregulation capacity under the presence of an electromagnetic stimulus. The test takes place under controlled conditions, i.e. the room in which the experiment takes place is free from any additional electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic field exposures.

The examination period is divided into three phases: resting, exposure and recovery, and the patient it not informed when the exposure starts and stops (single blind study). The stimulus used is a DECT phone which continuously emits a pulsed electromagnetic field. The power flux density at the site of the exposure is 1mW/m2, which corresponds to 10/00 of the current legally recommended guidelines.

During the examination all physical parameters are continuously and concurrently measured and recorded. To assess the heart rate variability (HRV), a chest lead ECG is used. The active skin potentials are registered via a sensor placed on the left lower arm and the microcirculation is measured at the earlobe via Laser Doppler imaging.

Abstract

Background:
Individuals with Idiopathic Environmental Illness with attribution to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF) believe they suffer negative health effects when exposed to electromagnetic fields from everyday objects, such as mobile phone base stations.

Objectives:
This study utilized both open provocation and double-blind tests to determine if sensitive and control individuals experience more negative health effects when exposed to base station-like signals compared to sham.

Methods:
56 self-reported sensitive and 120 control participants were tested in an open provocation test. Of these, 12 sensitive and 6 controls withdrew after the first session. The remainder completed a series of double-blind tests. Subjective measures of well-being and symptoms, as well as physiological measures of blood volume pulse, heart rate and skin conductance were obtained.

Results:
During the open provocation, sensitive individuals reported lower levels of well-being in both the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) compared to sham exposure, while controls reported more symptoms during the UMTS exposure. During doubleblind tests the GSM signal did not have any effect on either group. Sensitive participants did report elevated levels of arousal during the UMTS condition, while number or severity of symptoms experienced did not increase. Physiological measures did not differ across the three exposure conditions for either group.

Conclusions:
Short-term exposure to a typical GSM base station-like signal did not affect well-being or physiological functions in sensitive or control individuals. Sensitive individuals reported elevated levels of arousal when exposed to a UMTS signal. Further analysis, however, indicated that this difference was likely to be due to the effect of order of exposure rather than the exposure itself.

Leukemia and brain cancer patients under age 15 years, along with controls with respiratory illnesses who were matched to cases on age, sex, and year of diagnosis (1993-1999), were selected from 14 South Korean hospitals using the South Korean Medical Insurance Data System.

Diagnoses were confirmed through the South Korean National Cancer Registry. Residential addresses were obtained from medical records. A newly developed prediction program incorporating a geographic information system that was modified by the results of actual measurements was used to estimate radio-frequency radiation (RFR) exposure from 31 amplitude modulation (AM) radio transmitters with a power of 20 kW or more. A total of 1,928 leukemia patients, 956 brain cancer patients, and 3,082 controls were analyzed.

Cancer risks were estimated using conditional logistic regression adjusted for residential area, socioeconomic status, and community population density. The odds ratio for all types of leukemia was 2.15 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.00, 4.67) among children who resided within 2 km of the nearest AM radio transmitter as compared with those resided more than 20 km from it.

For total RFR exposure from all transmitters, odds ratios for lymphocytic leukemia were 1.39 (95% CI: 1.04, 1.86) and 1.59 (95% CI: 1.19, 2.11) for children in the second and third quartiles, respectively, versus the lowest quartile. Brain cancer and infantile cancer were not associated with AM RFR.

RFI Tops Health in U.S. Tower Siting Battle

Download a pdf of this news and comment

When the residents of the Oak Hill Park community in the Boston suburb of Newton fought the expansion of a local 5kW AM station, WNUR, they complained about radiofrequency interference (RFI)-to their telephones, stereos, VCRs, wheelchairs and baby monitors. They also objected to the possible effects on local wildlife, particularly to the blue-spotted salamander. And they worried about the visual blight posed by the towers.

What community activists hardly mentioned were the possible impacts on their health.

Bob Sklar, who has a doctorate in molecular biology, was one of the few exceptions. Even with WNUR's power at 5 kW, he and his family had trouble sleeping and suffered from severe headaches. Fighting the plan to increase the total AM power output to up to 150kW, Sklar warned that the proposed higher power levels "will produce serious health effects in the area."

When asked by Microwave News why the others had left the health issue on the back burner, Sklar replied, "We were told it's not a winning issue. The consensus was to not raise it."

That may now change.

In the largest and most detailed study of AM radio radiation to date, a team led by Mina Ha of South Korea's Dankook University in South Korea has found that
children living within 2 km of an AM transmitter had more than twice the risk of developing leukemia, compared to those living more than 20 km away. The study, which included 36 cases of children with leukemia living within 2 km of an AM station, will appear in the August 1 issue of the American Journal of Epidemiology and is already available on the journal's Web site.

"The results of this study suggest a possible carcinogenic effect of AM RF [radiation] exposure on children, particularly with regard to lymphocytic leukemia," Ha concludes. This is Ha's third epidemiological study of cancer in the vicinity of AM radio stations. The other two, published in 2003 and 2004,
also pointed to a cancer risk. (See also MWN, S/O02, p.16.)

Ha told Microwave News that while the observed risk was significant, she would like to see it replicated in another study. Ha's study included 31 AM stations operating at 20kW or more.

Five years ago, a group of Italian researchers headed by Paola Michelozzi found higher rates of childhood leukemia around the Radio Vatican transmitters in Cesano outside Rome (see MWN, M/A01, p.6; S/O01 p.9; M/J02 p.4; J/A02 p.14). Radio Vatican operates at a number of different frequencies, in both the AM and shortwave (4-21MHz) bands.

(
umtsno: see also Adult and Childhood Leukemia near a High-Power Radio Station in Rome, .pdf, 91,4 KB)

When Ha compared cases and controls relative to estimated RF exposures, she found that the risk was significantly higher for those in the second and third exposure quartiles, but not in the 25% most exposed children. Nevertheless there was a trend of increased risk of lymphocytic leukemia with increased RF exposure, which was of borderline significance. (There was no parallel trend with distance from a transmitter.)

Regarding the lack of an association among those who are most exposed to RF, Ha suggested that it might be due to "decreasing statistical power" or to a "bystander effect."

Ha estimates that the electric field at 2km from the AM transmitters ranged from 1V/m to 3V/m - approximately 2653 microW/m2 to 23873 microW/m2.

Oak Hill Park Is Within 2Km of AM Tower

The entire Oak Hill Park community in Newton, outside Boston, lies within 2 km of WNUR's 5kW transmitter. Approximately 1,000 to 1,500 people live there.

About 45 of the homes in the neighborhood are exposed to RF levels of 6.1 V/m (98 700.26 microW/m2) or more, with some 400 homes above 1.9 V/m (9 575.59 microW/m2), according to an analysis by Richard Temkin, a research physicist at MIT and, like Sklar, a former long-time resident of Oak Hill Park. Temkin estimated that if the power output were to be increased to 150kW, thousands of homes in Newton would be exposed to 1.9V/m or more.

Temkin's case against the power upgrade was based almost exclusively on RFI. He was one of those who argued against basing the community's appeal on health concerns, according to Sklar. Temkin did not respond to repeated requests for an interview.

The power output of the AM broadcasts in Newton will soon jump from 5kW to 95kW, and possibly even higher. Yet, even at 5kW, Oak Hill residents could hear music from the radio station coming from all sorts of electronic equipment as well as water pipes, heaters and toilets. "We're all fearful that all the interference problems will increase exponentially," one resident told the Boston Globe in the fall of 2005, after a court ruled that the plan to upgrade the AM station could move forward.

In an August 17, 2005 decision, Charles Trombly Jr of the Massachusetts Land Court had ruled against all the objections raised by the town of Newton on the basis that the FCC has the "sole power" to regulate radio stations and any RFI. A month earlier the town aldermen had voted unanimously to deny the three broadcasterrs a permit to expand.

While the residents hardly raised the health issue, the radio stations brought in two consulting firms that help corporations mired in EMF and RF health disputes: Gradient Corp and Exponent. A report prepared by Gradient's Peter Valberg concluded that "careful review of the whole body of literature… have [sic] not identified reasons to believe that the current RF safety standards are not protective of public health." Exponent's Linda Erdreich also prepared a report that sought to reassure the town that there was little to worry about.

Valberg did his own RF measurements. He found that the RF levels were somewhat higher than those estimated by Temkin. Valberg's highest reading was 13.7 V/m (497 851.5 microW/m2) with average readings in Oak Park of 3.8 V/m (38 302.4 microW/m2) during the night and 4.9 V/m (63 687 microW/m2) during the day. Jim Hatfield of Hatfield and Dawson, a consulting firm in Seattle, also did an RF survey for the three AM stations [Hatfield's report is appended to Valberg's report].

(For comparison, the FCC and the IEEE/ANSI exposure standards for AM frequencies are both 614 V/m (1000 000 000 microW/m2). The ICNIRP standard is 87 V/m (20 076 923.1 microW/m2).

Valberg and Exponent's Bill Bailey are currenly involved in establishing siting policy for power lines in Connecticut (see our January 19, 2007 story).

Osepchuk Sides with the Residents

One ironic aspect of the Newton battle is that John Osepchuk, one of the chief architects of the IEEE/ANSI standard, argued against the AM upgrade, while the Silent Spring Institute, a local environmental group, offered no help, telling Bob Sklar that its focus was on chemical pollutants.

"Even at 5kW, you can hear sounds from baseboard heaters," Osepchuk told Microwave News. He stressed that the problem is not the ambient fields but the current in the wires and pipes. "The shocks and burns are annoying and people should not have to put up with them." In 1995, after spending most of his career at Raytheon, Osepchuk opened his own firm, Full Spectrum Consulting in Concord, MA.

Osepchuk expressed dismay at the FCC's refusal to address the side effects of AM radiation, such as the "tingles and sound generation" -pointing out that the commission had deferred setting limits on contacts and induced currents. But Osepchuk reserved the greatest contempt for the judge's decision overruling Newton's decision not to grant the AM stations a permit. "The judge says that those who are 'aggrieved' by his decision can always complain to the FCC -is he kidding?"




A new study from Israel, a scientific breakthrough

Mechanism of a short-term ERK activation by electromagnetic fields at mobile phone

From: "Iris Atzmon" <atzmonh <@> bezeqint.net>
27 Apr 2007

Dear all,

I had the honour to speak with Joseph Friedman this morning. He is excited about his findings as he made a scientific breakthrough. I have yet to read the full paper but meanwhile he told me these findings are stable, they repeated 20 and 30 times and got the same result and the findings are especially strong because they occured at the level of the membrane and not only cells. They used fibroblasts and cells of the cervix. He said that one thing is clear and this is that "the cells are not indifferent to the radiation".

They checked different frequencies but especially 875MHz. This study lasted 8 (!) years. He would be glad to receive reactions from the scientific community.

Mechanism of a short-term ERK activation by electromagnetic fields at mobile phone frequency.

a.. Friedman J,
b.. Kraus S,
c.. Hauptman Y,
d.. Schiff Y,
e.. Seger R.

The exposure to non-thermal microwave electromagnetic field generated by mobile phones affects the expression of many proteins. This effect on transcription and protein stability can be mediated by the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades, which serve as central signaling pathways, and govern essentially all stimulated cellular processes. Indeed, a long-term exposure of cells to mobile phone irradiation results in the activation of p38MAPKs as well as the ERK/MAPKs.

Here we studied the immediate effect of irradiation on the MAPK cascades, and found that ERKs, but not stress related MAPKs are rapidly activated in response to various frequencies and intensities. Using signaling inhibitors we delineated the mechanism that is involved in this activation.

We found that the first step is mediated in the plasma membrane by NADH oxidase, which rapidly generates reactive oxygen species (ROS). These ROS then directly stimulate matrix metalloproteinases and allow them to cleave and release heparin binding-EGF. This secreted factor, activates EGF receptor, which in turn further activates the ERK cascade.

Thus, this study demonstrates for the first time a detailed molecular mechanism by which electromagnetic irradiation by mobile phones induces the activation of the ERK cascade and thereby induces transcription and other cellular processes.

This document reveals a pivotal moment in 1988 when members of the global tobacco industry came together to talk about the difficulties they faced regarding the issue of envirnmental tobacco smoke (ETS). Thanks to a rare voice of reason from within their ranks, they had an opportunity at this moment to decide between staying their present course of global deception on ETS, or deciding to deal with the issue honestly and realistically. It isn't often you get to see a tobacco industry scientist stand up to the rest of the industry and urge them to deal with reality, but we see it in this document. These are privileged and confidential minutes of a joint industry meeting held in London in 1988. Representatives of the European, Japanese, Canadian, the American and United Kingdom tobacco companies were present. Of particular interest are the statements of German cigarette industry scientist, Dr Adlkofer, who questioned the industry's creation of it's own "marketable science." In a stunning departure from

Dr. Adlkofer further said that "real science" would be "essential if the industry was to prevail on the ETS issue." Admirably, Dr. Adlkofer proved to be a voice of honesty from within the industry.

According to these minutes, Dr. Adlkofer "refused to endorse a situation in which scientific research is guided by public relations needs." Moreover, Dr. Adlkofer questioned the wisdom of the industry's present course on ETS. He urged the industry instead to concentrate on identifying a threshold level for risk of ETS exposure. This controversial suggestion instantly caused a flurry of "widespread disagreement" among the meeting's participants.

Sehr geehrter Herr Prof. Dr. Franz Adlkofer,

Auf Seiten von http://iddd.de und von http://umtsno.de/

gut dokumentiert.

Mit Sorge habe ich unter dem Titel
"VdC - die Tabak-Lobbyisten, Stets in Rufweite der Volksvertreter" über Sie auf Seite 3 in der Hamburger Morgenpost vom 12.4.07 folgendes gelesen:

"Die Hauptinteressenvertretung der Tabakindustrie in Deutschland ist der Verband der Cigarettenindustrie" (VdC), in dem sich die meisten großen Tabakhersteller zusammengeschlossen haben: Philip Morris, British American Tobacco, Reemtsma Cigarettenfabriken, Austria Tabak, JT International Germany (früher Reynolds RJ Tobacco), Tabak- und Cigarettenfabrik Heintz van Landewyck, Joh. Wilh. von Eicken. Die wissenschaftliche Abteilung des VdC unter Leitung von Professor Franz Adlkofer hatte die Federführung bei der Einflussnahme auf deutsche Ärzte und Wissenschaftler. Um weniger auffälig agieren zu können, gründete der VdC 1975 den 'Forschungsrat Rauchen und Gesundheit'."

Ich frage mich wie soll ich diese Nachricht begegnen ?

Es wird in den nächsten Wochen eine Diskussion über Reflexstudie im Bezug auf Ihre Glaubwürdigkeit geben. Mir kam schon früher unlogisch vor die Aussagen der Reflexstudie zu entschärfen. Sie behaupteten 2004:

".. dass die REFLEX-Daten einen kausalen Zusammenhang zwischen einer RF-EMF Exposition und der Entstehung chronischer Erkrankungen oder auch nur funktioneller Störungen keineswegs belegen."

Ist das noch heute Ihre Meinung?

Was wird mit Reflex-Aussagen, wenn Sie jetzt in der Öffentlichkeit für uns kaputt gemacht werden?

Mit freundlichem Gruß aus Hamburg

Montag, 9. April 2007


2007 konnte ich in Engelhartstetten (704 Einwohner) die negative Auswirkung des Mobilfunks auf das mittlere Sterbealter statistisch feststellen. In Engelhartstetten gibt es seit zehn Jahren GSM -Mobilfunksender, gegenwärtig mit einer maximalen Gesamtimmission von bis zu 4379 mikroW/m2 (April 2007). In Loimersdorf (464 Einwohner) ca. drei Kilometer entfernt gibt es keine Mobilfunksender - erst wieder im nächsten Ort Kopfstetten wo auch schon UMTS Einzug gehalten hat (Abb.1 und Abb.2). In Loimersdorf konnte ich eine Gesamtimmission von 0,6 mikroW/m2 (April 2007) messen. Ein Handyempfang ist nur im Freien mit zwei Anbietern möglich.

Ergebnisse und Diskussion

Vergleicht man das mittlere Sterbealter der Einwohner Engelhartstettens nach zehn Jahren Mobilfunk, einem Dorf mit mehreren Mobilfunksendern von Ende 2004 bis März 2007, das für diesen Zeitraum 70,7 ± 3,6 Jahre (weiblich :männlich = 79:21%) betrug, mit dem mittleren Sterbealter der Einwohner von Loimersdorf ohne Mobilfunksender das 80,8 ± 1,78 Jahre (weiblich :männlich = 50:50%) betrug, stimmt das Ergebnis schon nachdenklich, besonders da Loimersdorf nur drei Kilometer entfernt liegt und die gleiche Bevölkerungsstruktur und dieselben sonstigen Umweltbelastungen aufweist. Der Unterschied ist die Mobilfunkbelastung.

Das Ergebnis ist statistisch signifikant (Irrtumswahrscheinlichkeit < 0,009) !

Neben der Tatsache, dass die Einwohner mit Mobilfunkbelastung im Mittel zehn Jahre früher gestorben waren als ohne Mobilfunkbelastung, zeigt dieser aufgezwungene Feldversuch auch, dass in Engelhartstetten Frauen viermal stärker betroffen waren als Männer aber fünf Jahre länger gelebt haben als Männer. In Loimersdorf waren im Beobachtungszeitraum gleich viele Frauen und Männer gestorben, allerdings haben Frauen dort acht Jahre länger gelebt.

Environmental Pollution by Microwave Radiation - A potential threat to human health (1973)

From: Martin Weatherall (weather [do] golden.net)
14.2.2007

This appears to be a very significant document relating to the danger of microwave exposure. It was produced by Canadian researchers from the Department of Anatomy, Queens University, Kinston, Ontario in April 1973. It was produced in collaboration with the Division of Mechanical Engineering, Government of Canada.

It is very clear from this report that researchers knew of the human health dangers from microwave radiation at least thirty four years ago and warned the Canadian Government about that danger. The researchers suggested detailed testing to determine safe exposure levels.

The document was written years before microwave antennas appeared on every major street corner, along every major highway and in the homes of most citizens. How could our the Canadian government and many other governments go so wrong, when information such as this was available?

The references are of special interest because show significant EMR research that was completed prior to 1973.

Electrosensitive patients showed reduced intracortical facilitation as compared to both control groups, while motor thresholds and intracortical inhibition were unaffected.

Altered cortical excitability in subjectively electrosensitive patients: Results of a pilot study.
Landgrebe M, Hauser S, Langguth B, Frick U, Hajak G, Eichhammer P.
Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatics, and Psychotherapy, University of Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany.

OBJECTIVE: Hypersensitivity to electromagnetic fields is frequently claimed to be linked to a variety of unspecific somatic and/or neuropsychological complaints. Whereas provocation studies often failed to demonstrate a causal relationship between electromagnetic field exposure and symptom formation, neurophysiological examinations highlight baseline deviations in people claiming to be electrosensitive.

METHODS: To elucidate a potential role of dysfunctional cortical regulations in mediating hypersensitivity to electromagnetic fields, cortical excitability parameters were measured by transcranial magnetic stimulation in subjectively electrosensitive patients (n=23) and two control groups (n=49) differing in their level of unspecific health complaints.

RESULTS: Electrosensitive patients showed reduced intracortical facilitation as compared to both control groups, while motor thresholds and intracortical inhibition were unaffected.

CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study gives additional evidence that altered central nervous system function may account for symptom manifestation in subjectively electrosensitive patients as has been postulated for several chronic multisymptom illnesses sharing a similar clustering of symptoms.

Electrohypersensitivity: State-of-the-Art of a Functional Impairment


OLLE JOHANSSON

Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden

Recently, a new category of persons, claiming to suffer from exposure to electromagnetic fields, has been described in the literature. In Sweden, electrohypersensitivity (EHS) is an officially fully recognized functional impairment (i.e., it is not regarded as a disease). Survey studies show that somewhere between 230,000- 290,000 Swedish men and women report a variety of symptoms when being in contact with electromagnetic field (EMF) sources.

The aim of our studies has been to investigate possible alterations, in the cellular and neuronal systems of these persons' skin. As controls, age- and sex-matched persons, without any subjective or clinical symptoms or dermatological history, served. Immunohistochemistry using antisera to the previously characterized marker substances of interest has been utilized.

In summary, it is evident from our preliminary data that various alterations are present in the electrohypersensitive persons' skin. In view of recent epidemiological studies, pointing to a correlation between long-term exposure from power-frequent magnetic fields or microwaves and cancer, our data ought to be taken seriously and further analyzed.

Summary
A case-control study on testicular cancer included use of cellular and cordless telephones. The results were based on answers from 542 (92%) cases with seminoma, 346 (89%) with non-seminoma, and 870 (89%) controls. Regarding seminoma the use of analog cellular phones gave odds ratio (OR) 1/4 1.2, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1/4 0.9-1.6, digital phones OR 1/4 1.3, CI 1/4 0.9-1.8, and cordless phones OR 1/4 1.1, CI 1/4 0.8-1.5. The corresponding results for nonseminoma were OR 1/4 0.7, CI 1/4 0.5-1.1, OR 1/4 0.9, CI 1/4 0.6-1.4, and OR 1/4 1.0, CI 1/4 0.7-1.4, respectively.

There was no dose-response effect and OR did not increase with latency time. No association was found with place of keeping the mobile phone during standby, such as trousers pocket. Cryptorchidism was associated both with seminoma (OR 1/4 4.2, CI 1/4 2.7-6.5) and non-seminoma (OR 1/4 3.3, CI 1/4 2.0-5.6), but no interaction was found with the use of cellular or cordless telephones.

Industry paid top cancer expert

After Doll's death- the truth is out, but the lies never stop

The paper by Hardell, Richter et al makes headlines: Industry 'paid top cancer expert'

The abstract:

Background Recently it was reported that a Swedish professor in environmental health has for decades worked as a consultant for Philip Morris without reporting his employment to his academic employer or declaring conflicts of interest in his research. The potential for distorting the epidemiological assessments of hazard and risk through paid consultants, pretending to be independent, is not exclusive to the tobacco industry.

The shortfalls cited

in this article illustrate the need for improved transparency, regulations that will help curb abuses as well as instruments for control and enforcement against abuses. end quote. The Swedish professor mentioned in the abstract is Ragnar Rylander, whose case has been quite thoroughly investigated in Sweden and Geneva and is widely publicized on the Web in the main European languages.

The universities of Gothenburg and Geneva have been somewhat defensive during this process. As we know, cases of unethical behaviour in academia would often go unnoticed if it were not for the efforts of investigative journalists.

Note - it is written in the study that the funding came from the Danish Cancer Society (and the danish strategies research council) but the original study from 2001 was funded THROUGH the Danish cancer society and BY the 2 biggest cellular companies in Denmark, Teledenmark and Sonophone. (it cost them 1 millions koronas).

It was reported at the time by Sianette Kwee. So it is the same case here- but it is not reported.

Unethical.

Subject: The Danish study

Only the media outside Denmark was informed about this study in the first place by???? industry. In Denmark it was not made public before Wednesday 12/6/2006.

Since it is based on the old study, it does not include information about cell phone use in industry, trades and crafts, governmental and other public institutions etc. In the television interview with J. Olsen it was said that now all craft-/tradesmen, who are so dependant in their work on the their cellphone can use it safely and unlimited.

Things that kill cells

Thu, 30 Nov 2006, Iris Atzmon, Mutat Res. 2006 Oct 10; [Epub ahead of print]
Links Cell death induced by GSM 900-MHz and DCS 1800-MHz mobile telephony radiation.Panagopoulos DJ, Chavdoula ED, Nezis IP, Margaritis LH. Department of Cell Biology and Biophysics, Faculty of Biology, University of Athens, Panepistimiopolis, 15784 Athens, Greece.

Our present results suggest that the decrease in oviposition previously reported, is due to degeneration of large numbers of egg chambers after DNA fragmentation of their constituent cells, induced by both types of mobile telephony radiation. Induced cell death is recorded for the first time, in all types of cells constituting an egg chamber (follicle cells, nurse cells and the oocyte) and in all stages of the early and mid- oogenesis, from germarium to stage 10, during which programmed cell death does not physiologically occur.

Funkturm-Umgebungsstudie aus Ägypten

22.11.2006

Ergebnisse: Die Prävalenz von neuropsychiatrischen Beschwerden wie Kopfschmerzen (23.5%), Veränderungen im Gedächtnis (28.2%), Schwindel (18.8%), Zucken (9.4%), Depressionen (21.7%) und Schlafstörungen (23.5%) waren bei den in Reichweite des Funkturms lebenden Personen deutlich höher als bei den Kontrollpersonen (10%), (5%), (5%), (0%), (8.8%) und (10%), jeweils (P < 0.05). Die neuropsychologische Testbatterie ergab, dass die in der Nähe des Funkturms lebenden Personen eine deutlich niedrigere Leistungsfähigkeit in einem der Aufmerksamkeits- und auditiven Kurzzeitgedächtnistest [Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT)] aufwiesen als die Kontrollpersonen. Die Personen, die gegenüber der Anlage lebten, wiesen weiterhin eine niedrigere Leistungsfähigkeit im Problemlösungstest (Block Design) als die Bewohner unter der Anlage auf. Alle Bewohner erbrachten bessere Leistungen in den beiden Tests zur visuell-motorischen Geschwindigkeit (Digit Symbol und Trailmaking B) und in einem der Aufmerksamkeitstests (Trailmaking A) als die Kontrollpersonen. Die zuletzt gemessenen Werte der hochfrequenten elektromagnetischen Strahlung des ersten Funkturms im Gouvernorat Menoufiya waren niedriger als die erlaubten Höchstwerte ('Digital Symbol' und 'Trailmaking' sind zwei spezielle Aufmerksamkeitsteste, d.Hrsg.).

Schlussfolgerungen und Empfehlungen: Personen, die in der Nähe von Funktürmen leben, können neuropsychiatrische Probleme entwickeln und sowohl positive als auch negative Veränderungen in ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit hinsichtlich der neuropsychologischen Funktionen erfahren. Deswegen wird eine Überarbeitung der offiziellen Richtlinien zur Exposition der Öffentlichkeit von hochfrequenter elektromagnetischer Strahlung von Funktürmen und die Benutzung einer neuropsychologischen Testbatterie zur regelmäßigen Bewertung und Früherkennung biologischer Effekte auf Bewohner rund um solcher Anlagen empfohlen.

Anm. umtsno: die o.g. Untersuchungen betreffen Werte von Leistungsflußdichte (Werte 67000 bis 1000 Mikrowatt/m2), die weit unter den Grenzwerten für die Schweiz oder Polen liegen und als sehr "niedrig und gesund" von Mobilfunkbetreiber angepriesen werden.

Neurobehavioral effects among inhabitants around mobile phone base stations

the full document, .pdf, 306 KB

Received 20 October 2005; accepted 18 July 2006

Results: The prevalence of neuropsychiatric complaints as headache (23.5%), memory changes (28.2%), dizziness (18.8%), tremors (9.4%), depressive symptoms (21.7%), and sleep disturbance (23.5%) were significantly higher among exposed inhabitants than controls: (10%), (5%), (5%), (0%), (8.8%) and (10%), respectively (P < 0.05). The NBTB indicated that the exposed inhabitants exhibited a significantly lower performance than controls in one of the tests of attention and short-term auditory memory [Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT)]. Also, the inhabitants opposite the station exhibited a lower performance in the problem solving test (block design) than those under the station. All inhabitants exhibited a better performance in the two tests of visuomotor speed (Digit symbol and Trailmaking B) and one test of attention (Trailmaking A) than controls. The last available measures of RFR emitted from the first mobile phone base station antennas in Menoufiya governorate were less than the allowable standard level.

Conclusions and recommendations: Inhabitants living nearby mobile phone base stations are at risk for developing neuropsychiatric problems and some changes in the performance of neurobehavioral functions either by facilitation or inhibition.

So, revision of standard guidelines for public exposure to RER from mobile phone base station antennas and using of NBTB for regular assessment and early detection of biological effects among inhabitants around the stations are recommended.

Well Being-Studie aus Zürich, Dringender Zeugenaufruf

Schwarzenburg, 12.6.06

Da es eigentlich keine Replikation der TNO-Studie, sondern eine neue Studie mit neuem Design und neuen Parametern war, sind die Untersuchungsergebnisse an der ETH/UNI-Zürich sehr unglaubwürdig ausgefallen. Dies bestätigen uns kritische Wissenschafter laufend.

Die Replikation der TNO-Studie in der Schweiz wird zum Teil durch die Konzerne der Mobilfunkindustrie (Swisscom Mobile, Orange i Sunrise) finanziert und ist nicht transparent. Die Ergebnisse werden den Wünschen der Geldgeber entsprechen. Die Studien die durch die Schweizer Fränkli der Mobilfunkkonzerne beeinflußt sind, kann man weder als neutrale Untersuchungen noch als Doppelblindstudien bezeichnen.

Rubins et al provocation study- further comments

April 21, 2006
From: "Clas Tegenfeldt" tegen von bemi.se

A dual band GMSM telephone can have an transmitter power of 0,002 W up to 2 Watts. The SAR of some GSM telephones reach 2 W/kg, if we assume this happens when the phone transmitts 2 W then we would have 0,002 W/kg when the phone transmitts at its lowest level. Thus the sham exposure in the report is about the same as when someone is talking in a GSM telephone near a basestation (thus the lowest transmitted power).

This happens for indoor GSM systems as well as macro cells (if you are some hundred meters from the basestation). The difference reported in the study is 1,4 W/kg and 0,002 W/kg for exposure and sham respectively, that is less than a factor of thousand I used above. It is therefore HIGHLY questionable that the SHAM exposure can be regarded as such! If there would be a clear cut threshold for symptoms provoked by the exposure that happened to be between the 0,002 and 2 W/kg exposures then - maybe - the study would have given some information.

"Epidemiology of Health Effects of Radiofrequency Exposure"

In a recently
published review (Kundi et al. 2004) on mobile phone use and cancer, we concluded that

Epidemiological studies that approached reasonable latencies [time period between first exposure and diagnosis] consistently observed elevated risk for the development of neoplastic diseases.

This assessment is distinctly different from the main message of the review from the International Commission for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP; Ahlbom et al. 2004). The authors stated that

Results of these studies to date give no consistent or convincing evidence of a causal relation between RF [radiofrequency field] exposure and any adverse health effect.

The article 'Are some people sensitive to mobile phone signals?'
by Rubin c.s. was published recently in British Medical Journal (15 April 2006 in BMJ 2006;332:886-891, doi:10.1136/bmj.38765.519850.55)

Frans van Velden's response is also published in the BMJ

Frans van Velden MSc

Rubin et al. define electromagnetic sensitivity as a condition in which symptoms are reported AFTER perceived exposure. This is not the definition of electromagnetic (hyper)sensitivity (EHS). EHS is a condition in which symptoms are reported as related to and attributed to exposure to electromagnetic fields (WHO factsheet 296, to be found exhere.)

The afflicted persons perceive symptoms and not exposure. The latter is impossible, since EHS and non-EHS individuals cannot detect exposure.

It was compiled by the Chernobyl Forum, which involves more than 100 scientists, eight UN agencies and the governments of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine".

According to the study, the number who will die from long-term cancers caused by radiation will be 3490.

The deaths will be among almost 600,000 most contaminated by the accident 50 workers died from acute radiation poisoning or linked causes. 9 of 4000 children who have contracted thyroid cancer since the disaster have also died. The precise number of death is "unlikely ever to be known". The study suggests that alongside radiation, mental illness has been the biggest public health problem caused by the accident.

The issue of power lines

In The Netherlands the policy of the government now is not to build where the magnetic field is more than 400 nT. TenneT (the Transmission System Operator (TSO) in the Netherlands) has introduced a new high voltage system:

The magnetic fields by the Wintrack powerline system are decreased, because the lines are always six in a perfect circle (before, they were in triangles). The magnetic fields neutralize each other extensively. Moreover there are conductors in the ground, I don't understand exactly how, I think they take stray fields away. Ask them: servicecentrum@tennet.org

Please consider my research on this subject.

We need absolute proof positive of the harmful effects of EM radiation on living systems.
We have it. The key is that the effects of radiation are CUMULATIVE - I repeat CUMULATIVE !!! IT CAN TAKE 10 - 20 - 30 or even more years for the damage to become apparent. It can even be handed down through generations.

These things we know.

Das Verhältnis zwischen Leukämie-Risiko bei Kindern und Hochspannungsleitungen

EN

Kinder, die in der Nähe von Hochspannungsleitungen aufwachsen, erkranken häufiger an Leukämie als Kinder, deren Zuhause weit von Starkstromleitungen entfernt liegt.

Zu diesem Ergebnis kommen Wissenschaftler der Universität Oxford in der Studie "Childhood cancer in relation to distance from high voltage power lines in England and Wales: a case-control study". Die Wissenschaftler hatten dazu die Wohnorte von 29.000 krebskranken Kindern - 9700 mit Leukämie auf der Insel untersucht und festgestellt, daß überdurchschnittlich viele an Leukämie erkrankte Kinder in der Nähe von Überlandleitungen leben.

Kinder, die weniger als 200 Meter entfernt von einer Hochspannungsleitung auf die Welt kommen, haben demnach ein 69 Prozent höheres Risiko an Leukämie zu erkranken als Kinder, die mehr als 600 Meter entfernt von einem Starkstrommasten geboren wurden.

Leben Kinder in einer räumlichen Entfernung von 200 bis 600 Metern zu den Überlandleitungen, ist das Risiko einer Leukämie-Erkrankung gegenüber der weiter entfernt wohnenden Vergleichsgruppe laut Studie um 23 Prozent größer. Für andere Krebsformen wurde kein erhöhtes Risiko gefunden.

Die Autoren, die ihre epidemiologischen Erkenntnisse jetzt in der Fachzeitschrift British Medical Journal veröffentlicht haben, weisen allerdings darauf hin, daß es für die statistischen Daten derzeit keine akzeptierten biologischen Wirkmechanismen gebe.



9.6.05, Anm. von Krzysztof Puzyna (umtsno)

Es gibt verschiedene Theorien über die Wirkung der elektromagnetischen Felder auf Lebewesen: Manczarski - Plasma-Theorie, die Tesla-Resonanz-Theorie oder die Studie von Bo Sernelius. siehe auch die Erklärung von Dr. Hyland während der Konferenz der Whistleblower am 07.09.2003 in Starnbek

Ihrer gemeinsame Nenner ist, daß die elektromagnetischen Felder in der Milliarden mal kleineren Stärke als die Grenzwerte der ICNIRP-Maffia ( und durch diese Maffia unterwanderte WHO-Organisation in Genf) die lebenden Organismen schädigen. Keine dieser Theorien hat jemals eine Chance auf Anerkennung solange die Verbrecher und Lobbyisten von Vodafone bei WHO in Genf ihr Unwesen treiben dürfen. Übrigens der von Dr. Hyland zitierte Direktor von WHO hat einen Namen- er heißt Repacholi

Association between childhood leukaemia and high voltage power lines

DE

Conclusions There is an association between childhood leukaemia and proximity of home address at birth to high voltage power lines, and the apparent risk extends to a greater distance than would have been expected from previous studies. About 4% of children in England and Wales live within 600 m of high voltage lines at birth. If the association is causal, about 1% of childhood leukaemia in England and Wales would be attributable to these lines, though this estimate has considerable statistical uncertainty. There is no accepted biological mechanism to explain the epidemiological results; indeed, the relation may be due to chance or confounding.

Non-thermal DNA breakage by mobile-phone radiation (1800MHz) in human fibroblasts and in transformed GFSH-R17 rat granulosa cells in vitro.

Diem E, Schwarz C, Adlkofer F, Jahn O, Rudiger H.

Division of Occupational Medicine, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18-20, Vienna 1090, Austria.

Cultured human diploid fibroblasts and cultured rat granulosa cells were exposed to intermittent and continuous radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) used in mobile phones, with different specific absorption rates (SAR) and different mobile-phone modulations. DNA strand breaks were determined by means of the alkaline and neutral comet assay. RF-EMF exposure (1800MHz; SAR 1.2 or 2W/kg; different modulations; during 4, 16 and 24h; intermittent 5min on/10min off or continuous wave) induced DNA single- and double-strand breaks. Effects occurred after 16h exposure in both cell types and after different mobile-phone modulations. The intermittent exposure showed a stronger effect in the comet assay than continuous exposure. Therefore we conclude that the induced DNA damage cannot be based on thermal effects.

Nicht-thermische DNA-Brüche durch Mobilfunkstrahlung (1800 MHz) in
menschlichen Fibroblasten und in veränderten GFSH-R17 Granulosazellen
von Ratten in vitro


Studie

Abstract: Rattenkulturzellen (diploide Fibroblasten und Granulosazellen) wurden in intermittierender und kontinuierlicher hochfrequenter elektromagnetischer Strahlung (RF-EMF) mit verschiedenen spezifischen Absorptionsraten (SAR) und unterschiedlichen mobilfunktypischen Modulationen exponiert. Die Brüche der DNA-Stränge wurden mit Hilfe der alkalischen und neutralen Comet Assay-Methode bestimmt. Die RF-EMF Exposition (1800MHz; SAR 1,2 oder 2W/kg; unterschiedliche Modulationen; während 4, 16 und 24 Stunden; intermittierend 5 min an / 10 min aus oder kontinuierliche Wellen) bewirkte DNA Einzel- und Doppelstrangbrüche.

Diese Wirkungen traten nach einer Exposition von 16 Stunden in beiden Zelltypen auf und nach unterschiedlichen Mobilfunkmodulationen. Die intermittierende Exposition zeigte stärkere Auswirkungen beim Comet Assay als die kontinuierliche Exposition, woraus die Autoren schließen,daß die Schädigung der DNA nicht durch thermische Effekte verursacht wird.

Aus dem Abstract: Die Chlorophylle der Blätter von Robiniensämlingen (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) wurden nach Exposition in hochfrequenten elektromagnetischen Feldern (400 MHz) quantitativ untersucht. Nach dreiwöchiger täglicher Exposition (1, 2, 3 und 8 Stunden) wurde die Menge des Chlorophylls gemessen. Dabei wurde festgestellt, daß die Menge an Chlorophyll-a als auch die an Chlorophyll-b gesunken war, außer bei einer Expositionszeit von zwei Stunden, bei der eine beträchtliche Steigerung zu verzeichnen war.

Der Versuch zeigte, daß das Verhältnis der beiden Haupttypen des Chlorophylls logarithmisch abnahm in dem Maße wie die tägliche Exposition andauerte.

Cell phone base stations change brain currents and cause unwellness
DE
Research in Austria

The radiation of a cell phone base station at a distance of 80 metres causes significant changes of the electrical currents in the brains of testees (measured by electroencefalogram, EEG). All the testees said they felt unwell during the radiation, some of them seriously.

That is the result of an investigation by a team of Austrian scientists. They measured alpha 1 (8 to 10 Hz), alpha 2 (10 to 12 Hz) and beta waves (13 to 20 Hz). A small density of GSM 900 and GSM 1800 radiation already caused several significant changes in these three frequency ranges. This means the body is stressed - temporarily this may have some positive
effect, in the long run however stress certainly reduces the quality of life, capacity for work and state of health.

[Land Salzburg] Salzburger Umweltmediziner Oberfeld stellt Ergebnisse einer neuen Studie vor

(LK) "Die Ergebnisse einer neuen Studie zeigen weltweit erstmals, daß die Einstrahlung einer Mobilfunksendeanlage (GSM 900/1800 MHz) in etwa 80 Metern Entfernung zu signifikanten Veränderungen unterschiedlicher EEG-Parameter führt. Die gemessenen Veränderungen der Gehirnströme sind mit verschiedenen vegetativen und zentralnervösen Störungen, über die die Probanden berichteten, in Zusammenhang zu bringen."

Dies teilte heute, Mittwoch, 27. April, der Salzburger Umweltmediziner Dr. Gerd Oberfeld vom Referat "Gesundheit, Hygiene und Umweltmedizin" des Landes mit.

Elektrosensibilisierung, Dispositionen zu Allergien und anderen Gesundheitsstörungen einschließlich Krebs durch magnetisierende Kontrastmittel + Elektrosmog

Bitte geben Sie diese Informationen an Selbsthilfegruppen und an Initiativen gegen Elektrosmog weiter. Es besteht der begründete Verdacht, daß magnetische Kontrastmittel, die wegen einer (besseren) Resonanz bei bildgebenden Diagnoseverfahren gespritzt werden, Elektrosensibilisierungen auslösen können. Zudem ist zu befürchten, daß hierdurch die bioelektrischen Systeme einschließlich Nervensystem beeinträchtigt werden können.

Gesundheitsbeeinträchtigungen durch Elektrosmog

Der Elektrobiologe Harald Moritz führt langjährig Statistik

Demnach reagiert der menschliche Organismus in drei Stufen auf Elektrosmog:

1. Phase - Störungsphase

Hierbei reagiert der Körper mit Befindlichkeitsstörungen und Stresssymptomen wie Schlafstörungen, Appetitlosigkeit, Nervosität, Konzentrationsschwäche sowie vegetativen Komponenten.

2. Phase - Beeinträchtigungsphase

Die Symptome der Störungen werden nun deutlicher wahrgenommen, z.B. als starke Kopfschmerzen bzw. Migräne, Verdauungsstörungen, Immunschwäche, stärkerer Infektanfälligkeit und weiteren organischen Störungen.

3. Phase - Pathologische Phase (Krankheit)

Die dritte Phase bedingt eine Erkrankung, die ohne Reduzierung der Elektrosmogbelastung, dann häufig zu einer irreversiblen Krankheit führt. Hier dokumentiert sich ein breites medizinisches Krankheitsspektrum.

Workshop on Biological Effects of EMF, Kos, Greece


Poland, as one of the countries that recently has joined the EU, has now to change their safety limits. Their original safety limits were much stricter than EU's ICNIRP limits, so for them it is also a step backwards.

SAR is getting a growing number og opponents and is considered as useless by many. Actually it is based on electrical fields and not on magnetic fields. Proposals for other ways to measure and express exposure were proposed e.g. Poland (#A7:1-Trzaska H.).
