| Título | Recent Research on EMF and Health Risks (Fourth annual report from SSI’s Independent Expert Group on Electromagnetic Fields, 2006) |
| Resumo | This year’s report includes a preamble in which the work process of the IEG is described. In particular the methods for evaluation of the results of studies as well as for synthesizing the scientific evidence within a research area are described. The main part of the report is divided into one section on ELF and another section on RF. Each of these sections discusses both experimental and observational studies. The report also comments upon a review from the UK on the possible relation between EMF and the hormone melatonin. In addition, the report includes a section that discusses newly emerging biological techniques that are of potential importance to laboratory EMF research. In last year’s report the concluding section listed some key issues on which it was considered possible to assess the scientific evidence based on the review in that year’s report and in previous years’ reports. This list of key issues has been updated in the current report. |

| Título | Recent Research on EMF and Health Risks (Third annual report from SSI’s Independent Expert Group on Electromagnetic Fields 2005) |
| Resumo | In this year’s report the IEG evaluates some recent data on ELF fields, but the major part of the report is about RF fields and in particular about recent epidemiological studies on disease risk in relation to mobile phone use. Intense research has been ongoing for several years and new results are presented regularly. Yet, the IEG is aware of a number of additional studies that will appear in the next couple of years, particularly from the Interphone study. Therefore it would still be premature to make final assessments, except in some restricted areas. The report also comments on some recent laboratory studies, including genotoxicity, e.g. studies within the REFLEX programme, and important attempts to replicate some earlier neurological findings that had been given considerable visibility. The WHO International EMF project has now been ongoing for ten years and we report on the conclusions from several workshops and environmental health criteria documents that have been produced by this programme. |

| Título | Epidemiology of Health Effects of Radiofrequency Exposure |
| Resumo | The authors have undertaken a comprehensive review of epidemiologic studies about the effects of radiofrequency fields (RFs) on human health in order to summarize the current state of knowledge, explain the methodologic issues that are involved, and aid in the planning of future studies. There have been a large number of occupational studies over several decades, particularly on cancer,cardiovascular disease, adverse reproductive outcome, and cataract, in relation to RF exposure. More recently, there have been studies of residential exposure, mainly from radio and television transmitters, and especially focusing on leukemia. There have also been studies of mobile telephone users, particularly on brain tumors and less often on other cancers and on symptoms. Results of these studies to date give no consistent or convincing evidence of a causal relation between RF exposure and any adverse health effect. On the other hand, the studies have too many deficiencies to rule out an association. A key concern across all studies is the quality of assessment of RF exposure. Despite the ubiquity of new technologies using RFs, little is known about population exposure from RF sources and even less about the relative importance of different sources. Other cautions are that mobile phone studies to date have been able to address only relatively short lag periods, that almost no data are available on the consequences of childhood exposure, and that published data largely concentrate on a small number of outcomes, especially brain tumor and leukemia. |

| Título | Mobile Phones and Health |
| Resumo | In May 2000 the Independent Expert Group on Mobile Phones (IEGMP), chaired by Sir William Stewart, issued its report on mobile phones and health. The report reviewed epidemiological and experimental studies relevant to an assessment of health effects from exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation from the use of mobile phones. It also made a number of recommendations that were designed to address public health concerns and related issues. This 2004 report, by the Board of NRPB, provides further advice to address remaining public concerns about mobile phone technology as well as related technological developments. It also reviews progress on implementing the recommendations in the Stewart Report. |
