THE CHRONIC EXPOSURE OF ELECTROMAGNETICWAVES EMITTED FROM MOBILE PHONE ALTERS AUTONOMIC FUNCTIONS OF HUMAN BODY
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Scientific Research - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Mobile phones (MP) are the most widely used instrument of present era. It works through electromagnetic (EM) waves. The antenna remains very close to the head which is prone to affect the brain and its functions.The present study was a case-control study designed to see the effect of EM radiation on the autonomic function of the human body by measuring Galvanic skin Response (GSR). The study conducted in PGIMS Rohtak, Haryana, INDIA. 100 male subjects of age 18-40 were selected, and divided into 2 groups Group I (50) not usingMPand Group II (50) usingMPfor 2-5 years with a mean duration of 30 minutes/ day. Both the groups were exposed to MP radiation for 30 minutes. The pre exposure and post exposure GSR were measured and compared using non parametric tests. The acute exposure to mobile phone for 30 minutes did not cause a significant change in the GSR level but when the basal GSR level was compared in both the groups, it was quite high in the users group (1.137 ± 1.04) than the non users group (0.5491 ± 0.61).
