24、ll phones are.In February 2011, a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association recorded changes in brain glucose metabolism (葡萄糖代谢) during cell phone use.

25、nd on the phone for 50 minutes. The volunteers brains were monitored by special scanners to measure glucose metabolism. Then in May 2011, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) added radiation from cell phones to its list of things that possibly cause cance
26、r in humans. The IARCs research found that most cell phone use did not lead to more risk of glioma, a dangerous type of brain cancer, or meningioma, a more common, but typically not harmful cancer. However, the study did find enough evidence that using cell phones for long periods of time on the sam
27、e side of the head could mean an increased risk of glioma.In a contrasting report published in July 2011, a British Institute of Cancer Research study found little evidence of cancer risk in 10 to 15 years of use.

28、ntries over the last 30 years since cell phones were introduced or even in the last 20 years since their use became more widespread.With no long-term research available yet, limiting exposure to cell phone radiation by texting more and talking less is recommended.
