The overuse of mobile phones by teenagers has become a common occurrence in our time. Therefore, this research aims to study the impact of cell phone addiction, cell phone cons, and the effect of applications on adolescent behaviors. This survey used the questionnaire to gather information from participants. The study targeted a group of male and female school students in Jeddah in the 14- 16 age group, who numbered 270. The study found that most students spend a lot of time on these apps or one of them: (Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook) without realizing the value of time wasted on these apps. The study also showed that Saudi teenagers use mobile phones and their applications to serve and develop hobbies. Despite the negative effects of mobile use such as sleep and insomnia, the sample praised its ability to control the use of mobile phones and that overuse does not reach the stage of addiction. The study recommends reducing the use of cell phones so that adolescents can hone and focus their skills. The study also recommends conducting qualitative studies to identify the quality of identities and how mobile devices contribute to the refinement and development of technical and technical hobbies.

The Impact

Social networks are a way of creating a virtual identity and entering into relationships with strangers in a series of interactions that were not known to a man before the existence of the Internet. Mobile phones and the virtual world often create a personality of a person that is not the same in the real world. It can be said that technology has changed the course of humanity and human consciousness and contributed to many changes in the mentality of society, especially among the youth. Children are often overwhelmed by materialism and jealousy, which further encourages them to become an unconscious, immoral and unambitious population. One of the negative effects of social networks is the abuse of privacy, which is also becoming a growing problem everywhere in the world and should not be ignored. However, a positive attitude should be maintained when it comes to social networks, because they facilitate communication, access to information and learning, greater availability of services and free advertising of some products or services. High school students use the Internet intensively every day, and the work raises the question of whether they use it constructively or destructively. The research was conducted in 2019, the population of high school students was observed and 100 students were included on the territory of Belgrade, Niš and Vitina.

BACKGROUND Cell phone use brought convenience to people, but using phones for a long period of time or in the wrong way and with a wrong posture might cause damage to the human body. OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of improper cell phone use on transport and chronic injuries. METHODS Studies were systematically searched in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Web of Science up to April 4, 2019 and relevant reviews were searched to identify additional studies. A random-effects model was used to estimate the overall pooled estimates. RESULTS Cell phone users were at a higher risk for transport injuries (RR: 1.37, 95%CI: 1.221.55), long-term use of cell phones increased the transport injury risk to non-use or short-term use (RR: 2.10, 95% CI: 1.632.70). Neoplasm risk caused by cell phone use was 1.07 times that of non-use (95% CI: 1.011.14); Compared with non-use, cell phone use had a higher risk of eye disease, with a risk of 2.03 (95% CI: 1.273.23), the risk of mental disease was 1.26 (95% CI: 1.171.35), the risk of neurological disorder was 1.16 (95% CI: 1.021.32), and a pooled risk of other chronic injuries was 1.20 (95% CI: 0.981.59). CONCLUSIONS Cell phone use at inappropriate situations has a negative impact on the human body. Therefore, it is necessary to use cell phones correctly and reasonably.

Abstract Background Cell phone use brought convenience to people, but using phones for a long period of time or in the wrong way and with a wrong posture might cause damage to the human body. This study was designed to assess the impact of cell phone use on transport and chronic injuries.Methods Studies were systematically searched in four database and relevant reviews were searched to identify additional studies. A total of 41 studies met the inclusion criteria.Results Cell phone users were at a higher risk for transport injuries (RR: 1.37, 95%CI: 1.22−1.55), long-term use of cell phones increased the transport injury risk to non-use or short-term use (RR: 2.10, 95% CI: 1.63−2.70). Neoplasm risk caused by cell phone use was 1.07 times that of non-use (95% CI: 1.01−1.14); Compared with non-use, cell phone use had a higher risk of eye disease, with a risk of 2.03 (95% CI: 1.27−3.23), the risk of mental disease was 1.26 (95% CI: 1.17−1.35), the risk of neurological disorder was 1.16 (95% CI: 1.02−1.32), and a pooled risk of other chronic injuries, was 1.20 (95% CI: 0.98−1.59). Subgroup analyses found that motor crashes had significantly increased (OR: 1.25; 95%CI: 1.18−1.32), as well as the risk for hearing problems (OR: 4.54; 95%CI: 3.29−5.80), headaches (OR: 1.25; 95%CI: 1.18−1.32), and abnormal biochemical indicators (OR: 0.51; 95%CI: 0.04−0.99).Conclusions Cell phone use at inappropriate situations has a negative impact on the human body. Therefore, it is necessary to use cell phones correctly and reasonably.

The Impact

It should not be presumed that male patients with cardiovascular disease are less sexually active than others, but they are more likely to have erectile dysfunction. It is therefore crucial to consider the impact on sexual function of medications commonly used to treat cardiovascular disease, because negative effects on erectile dysfunction can lead to problems with compliance and quality of life. Cardiovascular implications of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors used to treat erectile dysfunction should be borne in mind. Effective treatment of the cardiac condition should always take priority.

Effect Of Age

Forty male lambs of the mountain Greek breed were used to evaluate the effect of age at slaughter on carcass characteristics and composition. The slaughter of lambs was carried out at the age of 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 days. The slaughter procedure, carcass dissection and carcass composition were realized according to the standard method of CIHEAM-AGRIMED programme. The results of this work showed that the lambs of different age groups did not differ in dressing percentage significantly. The proportion of muscles showed a tendency of increase with the increasing slaughter age but the differences were not significant. The proportion of total fat in carcass increased with the increasing slaughter age from 20.84 to 23.59% for the age group of 30 and 90 days, respectively (P < 0.05). On the contrary, as the age at slaughter increased, the proportion of bones decreased (P < 0.05). Subcutaneous, intermuscular, perinephric and pelvic fats increased with the slaughter age, but only the subcutaneous fat was influenced significantly (P < 0.05). Among the different commercial cuts proportions of long leg, first 5 ribs and shoulder decreased, while those of last 8 ribs-loin and breast-flank increased (P < 0.05). The overall results suggest that the slaughter age of lambs of the mountain Greek breed should be increased from the present ~45 days to more advanced age of 75 or 90 days in order to improve the farmers’ profits without serious negative effects on the quality of carcasses or meat of lambs.
