Prenatal mobile phone use and gestational age, birth weight and height

摘要

According to the rapid increase of use of mobile phone in Korea, the public concerns for the possible health effects of radiofrequency radiation(RFR) exposure has been raised. It has been speculated that children might be more vulnerable to electromagnetic radiation exposure than adults because of several biological reasons including their immaturity of biological defense mechanisms [1]. We attempted to examine associations between maternal mobile phone use during pregnancy and fetal growth.
