Effect Of Electromagnetic Waves Emitted From Mobile Phone On Brain Stem Auditory Evoked Potential In Adult Males.
This study examined whether electromagnetic waves from a mobile phone affect brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) in adult males aged 20–40 years. The right ear was exposed for about 10 minutes and BAEP measures were compared before and after exposure. The abstract reports significant changes in several BAEP latencies/amplitudes in the right ear but not the left ear, and concludes that mobile phone emissions affect auditory potential.
Key points
- Adult males (20–40 years) underwent BAEP testing before and after mobile phone exposure.
- The right ear was exposed to mobile phone electromagnetic waves for about 10 minutes.
- Post-exposure, the right ear showed significant increases in latency of BAEP waves II, III, and V.
- Post-exposure, the right ear showed a significant increase in amplitude of the I-Ia wave and a decrease in III–V interpeak latency.
- No significant before-vs-after BAEP changes were reported for the left ear.
- The abstract does not report the sample size or key exposure parameters such as frequency or SAR.
