Changes of Clinically Important  Neurotransmitters under the Influence Of
Modulated RF Fields — A Long-term Study  under Real-life Conditions 2010

In 2003, the Commission on Radiation  Protection was still noticing that
there are no reliable data available  concerning the public’s exposure to UMTS
radiation near UMTS base stations (1).  RF radiation exposures below
current  limits represent a considerable risk potential. A com-prehensive overview
is  given in the review of 878 scientific studies by Prof. Hecht, which he
conducted  on behalf of the German Federal Institute of Telecommunications
(contract no.  4231/630402) (2, 3).  
As early as the 1980s, US  research projects also demonstrated in long-term
studies that rats raised under  sterile conditions and ex-posed to
**low-level** RF radiation showed signs of  stress by in-creased incidences of
endocrine tumors (4,  5).
This follow-up of 60 participants  over one and a half years shows a
significant effect on the adrenergic sys-tem  after the installation of a new cell
phone base station in the village of Rimbach (Bavaria). After the
activation of the GSM base  station, the levels of the stress hormones adrenaline and
noradrena-line  increased significantly during the first six months; the
levels of the precursor  dopamine decreased substantially. The initial levels
were not restored even  after one and a half years. As an indicator of the
dysregulated chronic  imbalance of the stress system, the phenylethylamine
(PEA) levels dropped  signifi-cantly until the end of the study period. The
effects showed a  dose-response relationship and occurred well below current
limits for technical  RF radiation exposures. Chronic dysregulation of the
catecholamine system has  great relevance for health and is well known to
damage human health in the long  run.
Conclusions: In Rimbach, the increase in sleep problems,  cephalgia,
vertigo, concentration problems, and allergies could be clinically  documented
after the cell phone base station had been activated. The newly  developed
symptoms can be explained clinically with the help of disturbances in  the
humoral stress axis (53). After having exhausted the biological feedback  
mechanisms, major health problems are to be expected. The possible long-term  
con-sequences of remaining caught in the exhaustion stage have al-ready been  
described by Hecht and Selye (3, 16). Thus, the significant results presented  
here not only provide clear evidence for health-relevant effects in the
study  subjects of Rim-bach after a new GSM base station had been installed
there, but  they also offer the opportunity to carry out a causal analysis. This
has already  been successfully done in the "shut-down study" of
Schwarzenburg, Switzerland (54). In Rimbach, the  documented levels should return to
normal once the relevant base station is shut  down.
Epidemiological Evidence: There is current epidemiological evidence for the
 considerable clini-cal relevance of the dysfunction of the humoral stress
axis  with its endpoints of PEA decrease and adrenaline increase, as
documented by us.  
1. Decreased PEA  levels can be found in a large portion of ADD/ADHD
patients. As therapy  methylphenidate is used, a sub-stance that is structurally
related to PEA.  Between 1990 and 2004, the boom time of cell phones,
prescription costs for this  medication had increased by a factor of 86 (49, 55).  
2. As part of the German Mobile  Telecommunication Research Programme,
approximately 3000 children and  adolescents were studied in Bavaria for their
individual cell phone  radiation exposure levels in relation to health
problems. Among the various data  sets, the data set regarding behavioral problems
showed a significant increased  risk for both adolescents (OR: 3.7, 95%-CI:
1.6-8.4) and also children (OR: 2.9,  95%-CI: 1.4-5.9) in the highest
exposure group (56). For the first time, the  "Rimbach Study" provides a model of
explanation in biochemical terms.  
3.  Pheochromocytomata are adrenaline- and noradrenaline-secreting tumors
of the  adrenal gland (57). This type of tumor due to microwave exposure has
already  been demonstrated in animal experiments in 1985 (5). The increase
of this  disease in the US population is highly significant.  Concurrent with
the increase in local microwave exposures due to an increased  number of
base stations and use of wireless communication technologies, the  number of
cases have increased from 1,927 to 3,344 between 1997 and 2006 (58,  59).

Excerpts from  newsletter
 
Un expert de Santé Canada admet devant la  cour Supérieure du Québec que le
code de sécurité 6 de Santé Canada ne tient pas  compte des effets
biologiques non-thermiques sur la santé  humaine


Hydro-Québec, l'Institut National de Santé  Publique du Québec et l'école
Polytechnique affirment sur toutes les tribunes  que les compteurs émetteurs
de radiofréquences sont sans danger. Cette  affirmation repose entièrement
sur la conformité au Code de sécurité 6 de Santé  Canada. Or, un expert de
Santé Canada, convoqué par la Cour Supérieure du Québec  dans le cadre d'un
procès opposant la ville de Chateauguay à Rogers au sujet  d'une antenne
relais située trop près des habitations, admet que les études sur  les effets
non-thermiques n’ont pas été prises en compte dans l'établissment du  code de
sécurité 6. Les faits sont relatés par le docteur Magda Havas

Une récente étude scientifique pilote (2011)  en provenance d'Allemagne
vient de démontrer sans équivoque que l’exposition  continue de personnes aux
rayonnements pulsés artificiels micro-ondes des  antennes relaiscrée une
réponse de stress physique et un dérèglement chronique  du système
catécholamines qui est connu pour avoir une grande importance de  nuisance sur la santé
humaine dans le court et le long terme.
Les  catécholamines les plus courantes sont l'adrénaline (épinéphrine), la  
noradrénaline (norépinéphrine) et la dopamine.
