" Infants suitable for the study were divided into 4 groups according to their mothers’ duration of mobile phone usage during pregnancy ... The analysis showed that the abnormal fidgety (AF) and absent fidgety (F–), suboptimal motor optimality score (MOS) and reduced motor repertoire were statistically higher in Group 3 compared to the other groups. Normal posture and the quality of other movements were statistically higher in the Control, and Groups 1 and 2 compared to Group 3. ... In conclusion, the findings suggested that there may be a relationship between prenatal RFR exposure and motor development in infants. More long-term studies are needed to determine whether these changes are temporary or permanent." {Credits 1} " The idea that the human body can tolerate tens of times more radiation at millimeter wavelengths is based on a faulty modelling of the human body as an outer structure filled with a homogeneous fluid, along with the assumption that millimeter waves do not completely pass beyond the skin, completely ignore nerves, blood vessels and other electrically conductive structures that can carry radiation-induced currents deep into the body [11]." {Credits 1} {Credits 1} 🎪 Hava Bektas, Mehmet Selcuk Bektas & Suleyman Dasdag (2022) Effect of mobile phone usage duration during pregnancy on the general motor movements of infants, Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 36:1, 56-66, DOI: 10.1080/13102818.2022.2046505. © 2022 The Author(s).
