We conducted an extensive literature search across four different databases was conducted. After selecting the articles relevant to the area of study, a total of seven studies were included in this meta-analysis, with no restrictions set on publication date or language. Studies were qualitatively assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. No significant association between the use of mobile phones and salivary gland tumors was observed (OR=1.06, 95% CI=0.86\u20131.32). No evidence for publication bias was detected.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec id=\"j_reveh-2022-0055_abs_003\">\n                  <jats:title>Summary and Outlook<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our findings indicate no significant association between mobile phone usage and salivary gland tumours. However, there were many limitations encountered in these studies, suggesting that the observed result may not be an accurate estimate of the true carcinogenic risk of mobile phones, especially for heavy long-term users. In fact, the studies included in this meta-analysis highlight the need to correctly define exposure assessment in order to ascertain the risk of a certain variable.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1515\/reveh-2022-0055","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,11]],"date-time":"2022-07-11T21:30:40Z","timestamp":1657575040000},"page":"591-599","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A meta-analysis of the risk of salivary gland tumors associated with mobile phone use: the importance of correct exposure assessment"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"Keshini","family":"Vijayan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Westmead Clinical School , Westmead , NSW 2145 , Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0098-1705","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Guy D.","family":"Eslick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Westmead Clinical School , Westmead , NSW 2145 , Australia"},{"name":"Clinical Links Using Evidence-based Data (CLUED Pty Ltd) , Sydney , Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023112414471500837_j_reveh-2022-0055_ref_001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"The Interphone Study Group.
