Brain cancer, the uncontrolled growth of cells in the brain. The term brain cancer refers to any of a variety of tumours affecting different brain cell types. Depending on the location and cell type, brain cancers may progress rapidly or slowly over a pe
Also, cellular phone use, radio frequency exposure, and electromagnetic radiation have also been found to be risk factors for brain cancer (Group, 2010; Kheifets, Sussman, & Preston-Martin, 1999; Schüz et al., 2006). Interestingly, individuals with asthma and other allergic disorders such as...

Radio-frequency radiation exposure from AM radio transmitters and childhood leukemia and brain cancer. Am J Epidemiol 2007;166:270-9.Ha, M.; Im, H.; Lee, M.; Kim, H.J.; Kim, B.C.; Gimm, Y.M.; Pack, J.K. Radio-frequency radiation exposure from AM radio trans...
aAn increased risk of cancer from exposure to microwave radiation has been a major source of concern for many cell-phone users. Cancers—in particular, brain tumors—have snared the attention of scientific investigators, the general public, and the legal profession for nearly a decade. 癌症的一...
“However, the evidence to date suggests that cellphone use does not cause brain or other kinds of cancer in humans,” says the statement. Cellphones emit radiation that is “too low to damage DNA.” By contrast, the NCI says, radiation such as the type from x-rays is high frequency...
young people were more vulnerable to ionizing radiation.24However, the effect of diagnostic radiation exposure on brain tumors was uncertain.23,28,29The influence of occupational exposure on brain tumors had been tested, but the results were inconsistent because of the small number of brain tumor ...

Evaluation of stage-specific neurogenesis markers reveals deficits in the dentate gyrus after acute and chronic DSS treatments, indicative of defective adult hippocampal neurogenesis. Finally, based on a possible causal relationship between gut-related inflammation and brain cancer, we investigate the ...
Radiation is used to treat many primary brain tumors, BMs, head/neck cancer, and leukemia/lymphoma involving the central nervous system. Months to years after radiation exposure, many patients experience deficits in memory, spatial relations, visual motor processing, quantitative skills, and attention...
