according to the report of April 20th, the study is part of the European Geronimo project. In this framework, researchers conducted a research survey on the behavior of pregnant women and their children aged five to seven. The main conclusions include the lower probability of children's behavior problems after the mother's day of pregnancy without mobile phone day, such as hyperactivity, concentration of attention, and emotional disorders.
in this study, 39% of mothers did not use cell phones during pregnancy, most of them from Denmark. This is mainly because these Danish mothers were recruited by the project team from 1996 to 2002, and the penetration rate of mobile phones was far below that.
in the study, 29% of mothers rarely use mobile phones, 27% of mothers use a medium frequency, and 5.7% of mothers use a mobile phone more frequently. Lara burns, a Research Institute at the Global Institute of health in Barcelona, stressed that the study showed that if pregnant women use a mobile phone at a medium or higher level, the probability of a child's behavior problems will be greatly improved.
in the study, 6.6% of the children had a variety of behavioral problems, 8.3% of them had hyperactivity and lack of concentration, and 12% had emotional disorders. The researchers pointed out that future research projects will also investigate the possible harm to the fetus when exposed to cell phone radiation.
researchers also say that mothers with hyperactivity problems are often more likely to use their mobile phones more frequently, and the problem of hyperactivity is likely to be genetically inherited to the next generation.
