Titolo: Aiuto.... i do need halp...!

Tra qualche giorno dovrei presentare oralmente una mia tesina sull'UMTS...
Siccome dovrei fare circa 2 minuti di esposizione in inglese... potreste
aiutarmi a sintetizzare la parte di inglese in modo tale da riuscire a dirla
in 2 min??? Mi aiutereste? Potete cambiare parole, struttura... purchè,
ovviamente, non cambiate il significato!

UMTS (3G = Third generation mobile phones) masts 'cause health problems'
Phone masts for the high-tech third generation mobile phones cause headaches
and nausea, researchers have claimed.
Dutch government scientists looked at the signals transmitted by base
stations for the new phones.
They operate at a higher frequency than those for traditional mobiles.
But mobile phone manufacturers and radiation experts said more research was
needed before it could be concluded that the phone masts damaged health.
Campaigners have expressed concerns that radiation from mobile phones could
be linked to conditions ranging from cancer to blood clots in the brain.
'Significant'
The Dutch study exposed volunteers in laboratories to radiation from 3G and
"traditional" masts - without telling them which version they were being
exposed to.
Seventy-two people took part in the study, half of whom had complained about
the health effects of living near traditional mobile masts.
The survey found both those who had complained about mobile phones radiation
- and even those who had not - complained about significant levels of
nausea, headaches and tingling sensations when they were exposed to signals
that mimicked third generation mobile networks.
A spokesman for the Dutch Economics Ministry, said: "If the test group was
exposed to third generation base station signals, there was a significant
impact.
"They felt tingling sensations, got headaches and felt nauseous."
In contrast, exposure to radiation from standard masts showed no significant
effect.
Maarten Lortzer, a spokesman for the Dutch research organisation TNO, which
carried out the research on behalf of the government, told BBC News Online:
"These findings were very unexpected.
"It means that there are a whole lot of other questions coming up."
He said other studies needed to be carried out to confirm the finding.
Confirmation
Dr Mike Clark, scientific spokesman for the National Radiological Protection
Board, said mobile phone users should not be worried.
"Until the finding is repeated, they should not be concerned. We can't rely
on one study, however good the research and the organisation behind it. It
does need to be replicated."
He said similar research would be carried out as part of UK's Mobile
Telecommunications Health Research Programme.
The GSM Association, which represents mobile phone companies, said: "As the
effects are small, it is unclear whether they have any health significance."
A spokesman for Ericsson, said: "Our position is that there is no scientific
evidence that there are any health problems associated with radio waves from
mobile communications."
A major long-term study looking at the health risk of mobile phones is
currently being carried out by the International Agency on Research on
Cancer.
Weighing up the benefits:
Should you throw your mobile phone out?
Not necessarily. These findings would have to be repeated by other studies
to be of much significance. Even if they were, acoustic neuroma is a benign
condition and can be treated.
Then there’s the health benefits of using mobile phones to be taken into
account. A significant percentage of mobile phone owners have used them to
call an ambulance or get help in an emergency situation. It's drastically
cut the time between reporting a medical emergency and help arriving, say
the experts.
So these studies probably aren’t a reason to discard your phone just yet.
But they do support taking some basic precautions – especially if you use
your mobile a lot. In a nutshell, where possible:
• use a land line;
• use text messaging rather than voice;
• and for voice calls on a mobile, use a headset.
If you have children, think twice about giving them a mobile phone. There's
no direct evidence the phones harm kids any more than adults, but some
experts argue children's developing brains are more susceptible to damage.

Lo studio che citi (TNO per conto del governo olandese) è del 2003, ma a
quanto leggo sarebbe stato smentito da una successiva ricerca svizzero,
fresca di questi giorni... forse dovresti aggiornare la tua tesina con gli
ultimi sviluppi. Vedi un po' tu.
Inoltre, d'accordo con i consigli di moderazione nell'uso del telefonino,
anche se fosse solo per precauzione, ma i "mast", ripetitori, sono una
questione diversa, stanno a centinaia di metri, non a pochi centimetri dal
cervello.

3G phone masts safe, Dutch health ministry says
Reuters
June 07, 2006, 09:50 BST
A study financed by the Swiss and Dutch governments and industry has found
no connection between health complaints and exposure to UMTS radiation
 
There is no evidence that radiation from third-generation UMTS cell phone
masts is harmful to people, the Dutch health ministry said on Tuesday.
The ministry based its comments on a new Swiss study.
A body advising the Dutch government, the Electromagnetic Fields Committee,
said in November that research from around the world on the subject
published between 2003 and October 2005 was either inconclusive or did not
meet scientific criteria and called for more investigation.
A Swiss follow-up study into the effect of UMTS radio base stations — which
emit and receive the signals to and from third-generation mobile phones —
found no indication that radiation caused health problems such as
headaches, exhaustion or dizziness, the health ministry said.
The study, led by Zurich University's Peter Achermann, and financed by the
Swiss and Dutch governments and industry, found no connection between
health complaints and exposure to UMTS radiation, the health ministry said.
"I understand that people are worried, but there is no effect, not even a
little bit," junior Health Minister Pieter van Geel said in a statement.
Several Dutch municipalities had refused to give permits for building UMTS
masts pending the results of the Swiss study.
However, Dutch interest group StopUMTS contested Van Geel's reading of the
Swiss findings.
"Scientists involved even in this study indicated that no conclusions can
be drawn for exposure over the long term," StopUMTS said in a statement.
The Swiss study followed research by Dutch group TNO in 2003 into radiation
from mobile phones, mobile phone and television masts.
