Mobile phones, just how did we live without them?

At about 80 million, there are now more mobiles than people in the UK. Butsince the nineties, when their use became more widespread, there havebeen nagging doubts about their safety. For many people these wereresolved two years ago with a report from the Mobile Telecommunicationsand Health Research Programme. The programme, jointly funded by theGovernment and the industry, concluded that mobile phones, base stationsand masts 'have not been found to be associated with any biological oradverse health effects'.

However, according to a decade-long study, due out in the c oming weeks,people who used mobiles for a decade or more had a 'significantlyincreased risk' of developing some types of brain tumours. The decade-longstudy, which concluded prolonged usage of mobile phones can increasethe risk of tumours, failed to include c hildren.

The Interphone study, partly funded by the mobile phone industry, found anincreased risk of glioma - the most common brain tumour. This follows theresults of an American-Korean study published a fortnight ago whichshowed that mobile use increases brain tumour risk by around 25 percent. And a similar report from Australian scientists in J uly showed doublethe risk after ten years' use. However, none of these reports included

children, and they are the group experts are most worried about.

'I am seeing more patients than ever and at younger ages,' says KevinO'Neill, consultant neurosurgeon at Charing Cross Hospital in London. 'Thebig fear among brain spec ialists is that the most likely culprit - and certainlythe one that gets closest to the brain - is radiation from mobile handsets.'

It is important not to be alarmist, mobile phone companies continue toinsist their products are safe. Many scientists agree with them, but othershave growing concerns.


5/25

Half of Britain's primary school children use mobile phones and many havedigital cordless phones at home, which emit microwave radiation in thesame way. The Health Protection Agency, which is responsible for safety inthis area, states that these operate within internationally agreed safelimits. But many experts believe young people, in particular, are moresusceptible to the microwave radiation produced by mobiles - andtherefore increased risk of brain tumours and other cancers of the headand neck. It is thought that radiation emitted by phones is absorbed by thebody, damaging the cells.

'Mobiles were originally designed to be used for short, urgent calls,' saysProfessor Shakeel Saeed, an ear and brain spec ialist at University College

London. 'But young people use them like any other phone, often for longperiods.'

While death rates for all the other major cancers are falling, 'for braincancer they are rising', according to charity Brain Tumour Research. Andworse, it is c laiming more children,' says its chairman Wendy Fulcher.

In the UK, cases among children are increasing by almost three per cent ayear, with most childhood brain tumours occurring in one to two-year-olds.But how could brain cancer in children too young to own phones be

connected to them?

When Interphone was launched, there were few sources of radiation inchildren's everyday lives. But these have increased and could start beforebirth, says Professor Denis Henshaw, head of the radiation research group atBristol University. Epidemiologists from McGill University in Montreal revealedthat women who worked in low-frequency magnetic environments whenpregnant, such as machinists, hairdressers, nurses and dry-cleaners, weretwice as likely to have babies that developed brain tumours. 'Low-frequency magnetic fields can suppress production of melatonin, which inpregnant women will deprive the foetal brain of the protective hormone,'

says Professor Henshaw, patron of the charity Children with Cancer.

The effect on babies and children does not stop there, according toProfessor Stefaan van Gool, who treats children with brain cancer at LeuvenCatholic University, Belgium. 'Cordless baby alarms, toys and phones exposechildren to daily radiation. Although the intensity is less than a mobile,children are more susceptible to the effec ts. A lot of young children haveWi-Fi at school, so their exposure is continual.'


6/25

Professor Lennart Hardell says: 'Why wait for conclusive evidence? Childrendeserve to be protected and we have enough data to justify warnings andrestrictions for them.' Some c ountries agree. The Russian Health Protec tionAgency has advised the government to ban mobile use for under-18s.France is introducing legislation to ban advertising of mobiles to under-14sand their use in nurseries and primary schools. In Salzburg, Austria, Wi-Fi isbanned in schools. Here, in the UK, the Department of Health c irculatedleaflets in 2000 advising that children limit use to 'short, essential calls'. Itsmore recent advice, that care should be taken 'in particular with the use ofhandsets by very young children', was posted only on its website. TheMobile Operators Assoc iation, meanwhile, dismisses the research asinconclusive and holds to its position that, after the age of two, children's

brains are no more vulnerable to microwave emissions than adults' sostandard safety limits protect them.

'We know electromagnetic radiation can affec t human c ells,' saysneurosurgeon Dr Ron Beaney of Guy's and St Thomas hospital in London.'The jury may still technically be out on the link with brain cancer but, in themeantime, most authorities are saying be careful. 'I routinely ask my patientsabout their mobile phone use and, like many clinicians, strongly urgecaution over use. Use landlines where possible, text rather than call andswitch off your phone when not in use. 'The cost of failing to do this could be

significant.'

Lip and tongue piercing

It may be the choice of a generation, but for todays teenagers lip andtongue piercing could have implications to their oral health later in lifeaccording to Dr Sabrina Manickam, Senior Lec turer in Dentistry at CharlesSturt University (CSU).

As healthcare professionals providing dental services to children,adolescents and teenagers in the public sector thoughout Australia, dentaltherapists have seen trauma c aused by lip and tongue piercing.

If you have your lip or tongue pierced, and have inserted a stud, you arerisking painful damage to your teeth such as fractures which createongoing dental treatment commitments which can be very expensive,Western NSW dental therapist Lynne Turner said.Tongue piercing carries a risk of injury to the vital structures such as the

tongue, as it is full of muscle fibres, blood vessels, nerves and taste buds soits important to contact your dentist before having oral piercing done soyou are given enough information about future complications to make aninformed dec ision.

Piercing can result in serious problems, Dr Manickam agrees. The mouthis teeming with bacteria, which cause no harm unless they get into deepertissues. Piercing allows these bacteria to penetrate to the inner tissues of thetongue, where they have the potential to cause serious infections.

The Australian Dental Assoc iation (ADA) is quick to shun this popularadornment. The ADA website lists such horror stories as, studs dislodgingand pins becoming lost inside the tongue, requiring oral surgery to retrievethem. The website states: The ADA has warned the public on a number ofoccasions of the dangers of tongue piercing. It is of interest to note thatrecently the American Dental Assoc iation, representing 143 000 members,cited oral piercing as a public health hazard.

New CSU degree courses in oral health therapy and hygiene and dentistrywill ensure more trained professionals in the dentistry industry are availableto rural and remote areas. Its important that teenagers can get access to


10/25

dentists and dental therapists if they are going to make informed decisionsabout pierc ing, Dr Manickam said. Our graduates will be thoroughlytrained to give teenagers and parents adequate information on theimportance of oral hygiene.

CSUs three year, Bachelor of Oral Health (Therapy/Hygiene) course willhave a strong focus on core biomedical and oral sc iences in the first twoyears and continue throughout the c urriculum, while students alsocommence their clinical experience and hand skills development in the firstyear. The hand skills development will occur using state-of-the-art simulationequipment in new purpose built fac ilities at CSU. In years two and three, thecourse focuses on understanding the medical, dental, social and

community context of clinical practice in dental hygiene or dental therapy.Students will undertake intense clinical activities and there will be theopportunity for students to be involved in patient care at a variety of sites -at CSU and in the community, in rural and metropolitan areas - to gainquality professional experience.

KEY

I LISTENING COMPREHENSION

Youll hear Shane Dunphy from child protection unit talking about peoplenaming their children after celebrities or the ones they love. For sentences1-10, decide if each statement is TRUE or FALSE by putting a tick () in theappropriate box.

'My name was always a topic of conversation when I was growing up," theboy told me. He was a tall, dark haired 14-year-old. He was sitting in theobservation room of the child protection unit where I was based, about tospend an hour in my company because of extremely violent outbursts at hisschool.

A cursory look at his file indicated a possible source of stress: this youngman's name was Napoleon.

How could such a mantle not attract ridicule and heartache?

"I mean, how many other kids were c alled after major historical figures?" heasked in exasperation. "There weren't too many Attilas, Hannibals orWellingtons. I was 12 before I even met an Alexander, for God's sake!"

In the torrid world of celebrity, Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen have justbeen blessed with a healthy baby boy, whom they have named Kai. Kai iscurrently the 68th most popular baby name in Ireland and the UK.Napoleon does not feature in the ranking.

Names do not have to be so eccentrically unique to cause problems.

Another young man I worked with became the subject of serious bullyingthrough being given the name Marion. This was again the result of his father,a fan of J ohn Wayne.

Failing to notice that the screen icon changed his rather effeminate title assoon as he possibly could, Marion's father followed the path of the evil Dadin J ohnny Cash's 'Boy Named Sue', and cursed his son to a childhood offighting and anguish. In this instance, there was nothing to be done exceptliterally have the child's name legally altered -- he also became J ohn,


20/25

possibly the most ordinary name he could think of, while, of course, keepinghis father happy.

The fact is, unusual names more often than not say more about the parentsthan they do about the poor child who is lumbered with them.

Napoleon Bonaparte was an idol of the accordingly labelled boy's father,an ex-military man who had studied the diminutive Emperor's achievementsin college.

"I was always told how great this guy was, how he was a brilliant soldier andpolitician, how he shaped the way the world is governed today -- I always

thought I was expected to live up to that, somehow. That if I did anything tolet down the image of this dead white man, I was also letting my fatherdown. And it didn't help that the name caused me to have the piss takenout of me from the second I started school."

There are countless books and websites which deal with naming your child,and most posit the advice that parents should consider a number of fac torswhen choosing the label by which their progeny will be known for the rest oftheir lives.

After all, children do not have any say whatsoever in what they are to becalled.

The Bumper Book of Baby Names warns parents to consider names whichreflect their child's personality, and suggest qualities of strength orcompassion to which they can aspire.

In other words, the name given to a child should be a gift, and reflect thepersona of the child as an individual -- yet so often, this is flagrantly ignored.

Familial bonds can be the cause of problems, too. I once worked with an

eight-year-old girl whose parents had seen fit to name her after hermaternal grandfather -- Michael. The sensible thing may have been to callher Michaela, but they chose to go with the masculine. All young Michael'saunts and uncles had also had girls, and the entire family had wanted aboy to be born this time around.

Alas, it was just not to be, and so this final daughter was saddled with aman's name. It took much persuasion -- and six months' worth of visits to achild psychologist -- to add that extra vowel.


21/25

Keeping a family tradition does not always mean adopting a grandparent'sname. I worked with a child in care whose given name was Tom Tom. Hisfather was a drummer, and this had been his nick-name during his glorydays.

Our names are hugely significant to us psychologically, and while we mayfantasise about having tougher titles, most of us would never trade up foranything else. This is because our names become hard-wired into ourpsyches, and can even influence our personalities.

Research has shown that, for example, girls with very feminine names likeDaisy or Poppy, can develop attitudes and behavioural traits which mirror

that. Similarly, underneath his anger, Napoleon's teachers all agreed thathe was a very strong individual, with c learly defined leadership qualities.

The message seems to be that choosing a name for your newly arrivedchild should never be done in haste. Remember, you -- and your little princeor princess -- will have to live with it for many years to come.

A brief look at the names many parents -- both inside and outside the worldof celebrity -- inflict upon their children shows that the act is regularly usedas an exercise in attracting tabloid attention and pseudo-intellectualposturing than it is cementing a child's future success -- or sanity.
