Abstract Title:
Non-Ionizing Radiation Created by Mobile Phone Progresses Endometrial Hyperplasia: An Experimental Rat Study.
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Non-ionizing radiation is related with many pathologies.AIM: Determine association between non-ionizing radiation and endometrial hyperplasia.METHODS: Fifty oopherectomized Wistar albino rats were administered Estradiol hemihydrate (4 mg/kg) to induce hyperplasia, and were exposed to 1800 MHz radiation created by a mobile phone and a signal generator working as base station. This study was carried out with 5 groups in two phases. The study groups were. Control group without any exposure; group receiving estrogen in first phaseof the study; group receiving estrogen in both phases; group receiving estrogen in the first phase and exposed to non-ionizing radiation during second phase and group taking estrogen in both phases and exposed to non-ionizing radiation during the second phase. Following both phases, uterine horns were excised and evaluated based on glandular density (GD), epithelial cell height (ECH), and luminal epithelial cell height (LECH).RESULTS: Estrogen increased all parameters during both phases (LECH, GD, and ECH values were 12,2 vs. 16,5 (p = 0.001), 34 vs. 47 (p
