Brain tumour risk in relation to mobile telephone use: results of the INTERPHONE international case-control study

Elisabeth Cardis
- 05 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: There were suggestions of an increased risk of glioma at the highest exposure levels, but biases and error prevent a causal interpretation, and the possible effects of long-term heavy use of mobile phones require further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionising radiation and risk of death from leukaemia and lymphoma in radiation-monitored workers (INWORKS): an international cohort study

Klervi Leuraud, +12 more

Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Circulatory Disease from Exposure to Low-Level Ionizing Radiation and Estimates of Potential Population Mortality Risks

Mark P. Little, +27 more
- 22 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: The review supports an association between circulatory disease mortality and low and moderate doses of ionizing radiation, and suggests that overall radiation-related mortality is about twice that currently estimated based on estimates for cancer end points alone.
