OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of cell phone use on various markers of semen quality. DESIGN: Observational study. SETTING: Infertility clinic. PATIENT(S): Three hundred sixty-one men undergoing infertility evaluation were divided into four groups according to their active cell phone use: group A: no use; group B: <2 h/day; group C: 2-4 h/day; and group D: >4 h/day. INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Sperm parameters (volume, liquefaction time, pH, viscosity, sperm count, motility, viability, and morphology). RESULT(S): The comparisons of mean sperm count, motility, viability, and normal morphology among four different cell phone user groups were statistically significant. Mean sperm motility, viability, and normal morphology were significantly different in cell phone user groups within two sperm count groups. The laboratory values of the above four sperm parameters decreased in all four cell phone user groups as the duration of daily exposure to cell phones increased. CONCLUSION(S): Use of cell phones decrease the semen quality in men by decreasing the sperm count, motility, viability, and normal morphology. The decrease in sperm parameters was dependent on the duration of daily exposure to cell phones and independent of the initial semen quality.

Note that the men concerned were already suffering infertility problems and
that no control group based on men with normal fertility was mentioned.

That is don't believe a word of it unless they start again and do a *proper*
test.

Lenny can you at least find reports where the test method is sensible and
carried out correctly.
With the ones you have posted so far it makes you look thi^V naive.

I don't take orders and especially not dumb ones.
There is nothing wrong with that study as read from the abstract.

At least I don't have shit-for-brains like you have.

the evidence is to the contrary. Go and chop up some combine
harvesters and leave us in peace.

Think of all the radiation you are exposing yourself too by using a
computer.

It appears you have no brains at all. Maybe the RF got to the remaining
cell and let what little information that was in there out..?

Now, as you claim to have killfiled me, I wonder if you'll reply..?

So you are saying that:

a) There is something wrong if you read more than the abstract

or

b) You haven't actually read anything but the abstract

Please confirm.
