Even as the debate continues whether mobile phones increase the risk of cancer, a new study published in the Nature's Scientific Reports reveals that the gadgets led to hyperactivity and other behavioral problems in unborn mice.
Researchers from Yale University in the United States found that mobile phone exposure led to the development of ADHD like symptoms among unborn mice.
