A scientific study published in the journal Neurotoxicology finds thatpeople who live around mobile phone base stations (cell towers) are atrisk for developing neuropsychiatric problems and changes in

neurobehavioral function.The prevalence of neuropsychiatric complaints as headache (23.5%),memory changes (28.2%), dizziness (18.8%), tremors (9.4%), depressivesymptoms (21.7%), and sleep disturbance (23.5%) were significantly

higher among exposed inhabitants than controls: (10%), (5%), (5%),(0%), (8.8%) and (10%), respectively (P  < 0.05).  Exposed inhabitantsexhibited a significantly lower performance than controls in one ofthe tests of attention and short-term auditory memory.

The authors say revision of standard guidelines for public exposure toRER from mobile phone base station antennas around the stations isrecommended.G. Abdel-Rassoul *, O. Abou El-Fateh, M. Abou Salem, A. , F.
