dc.description.abstractWe evaluated long term use of mobile phones and the risk for brain tumours in case control studies published so far on this issue We identified ten studies on glioma and meta analysis yielded OR 0 9 95 CI 0 8 1 1 Latency period of or 10 years gave OR 1 2 95 CI 0 8 1 9 based on six studies for ipsilateral use same side as tumour OR 2 0 95 CI 1 2 3 4 four studies but contralateral use did not increase the risk significantly OR 1 1 95 CI 0 6 2 0 Meta analysis of nine studies on acoustic neuroma gave OR 0 9 95 CI 0 7 1 1 increasing to OR 1 3 95 CI 0 6 2 8 using or 10 years latency period four studies Ipsilateral use gave OR 2 4 95 CI 1 1 5 3 and contra lateral OR 1 2 95 CI 0 7 2 2 in the or 10 years latency period group three studies Seven studies gave results for meningioma yielding overall OR 0 8 95 CI 0 7 0 99 Using or 10 years latency period OR 1 3 95 CI 0 9 1 8 was calculated four studies increasing to OR 1 7 95 CI 0 99 3 1 for ipsilateral use and OR 1 0 95 CI 0 3 3 1 for contralateral use two studies We conclude that this meta analysis gave a consistent pattern of an association between mobile phone use and ipsilateral glioma and acoustic neuroma using or 10 years latency period
