That million woman study did find an increased risk of :s/cancer/tumors/ associated with cell phone use.
> For acoustic neuroma, there was an increase in risk with long term use vs never use (10+ years: RR = 2.46, 95% CI = 1.07-5.64, P = 0.03), the risk increasing with duration of use (trend among users, P = 0.03).
And you quoted the IARC press release out of context. Immediately after the words you quote it says: "...based on an increased risk for glioma...associated with wireless phone use."

- leereeves 8y agoMea culpa. I still don't see what your point is, though. That the IARC should have included a future study in their analysis? They drew what conclusions they could based on the evidence available at the time.
