The advancement of telecommunication technology is vital for our wireless connectivity and networking across the world, but not at the expense of the lives of other organisms because their extinction follows us. This review article highlighted the various communication systems and technologies implemented and their implications. The relevant keywords used for this review, including fifth generation (5G), electromagnetic radiation (EMR), telephone tower, 5G impacts on lives, 5G impacts on human health, animals, and birds, were used for inclusive search on trustworthy citation databases listed in Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from 1993 to 2022. The findings revealed that the radiations range between radio frequency and electromagnetic frequency is causing detrimental effects on different species including their fertility and fetus development. Experts reported that birds use the earth's EMR to navigate in their flight, but when they are exposed to weak or microwave radiation from the telecommunication towers, they deviate from their path, confused, and even die from telephone tower collisions. The new movement in protecting the bird population from EMR is creating an awareness of "air as a habitat" for birds, and research reports show that it is experimentally proven, that such radiations affect the birds' lives in many ways. Authors believe that these critical surveillance data would create awareness among the readers and researchers about the consequences to human health due to the extensive use of new generation telecommunication and networking technologies. The World Health Organization mentioned the harmful effects of EMR in their report. It shows that a diffuse collection of symptoms such as headaches, anxiety, suicide and depression, nausea, fatigue, and loss of libido may be caused due to low levels of exposure to EMR at home.
电信技术的进步对我们在世界各地的无线连接和网络至关重要，但不能以牺牲其他生物的生命为代价，因为它们的灭绝伴随着我们。这篇综述文章强调了所实现的各种通信系统和技术及其影响。1993年至2022年，本综述使用的相关关键词，包括第五代（5G）、电磁辐射（EMR）、电话塔、5G对生命的影响，5G对人类健康、动物和鸟类的影响，在Scopus、PubMed、Web of Science和Google Scholar列出的可信引文数据库中进行了包容性搜索。研究结果表明，无线电频率和电磁频率之间的辐射对不同物种造成了有害影响，包括它们的生育能力和胎儿发育。专家报告称，鸟类在飞行中使用地球的EMR导航，但当它们暴露在电信塔的微弱或微波辐射下时，它们会偏离路径，感到困惑，甚至死于电话塔碰撞。保护鸟类种群免受电子辐射影响的新运动正在让人们意识到“空气是鸟类的栖息地”，研究报告表明，实验证明，这种辐射会在很多方面影响鸟类的生活。作者认为，由于新一代电信和网络技术的广泛使用，这些关键的监测数据将使读者和研究人员意识到对人类健康的影响。世界卫生组织在其报告中提到了电子病历的有害影响。研究表明，头痛、焦虑、自杀和抑郁、恶心、疲劳和性欲丧失等广泛症状可能是由于在家中接触电子病历的水平较低而引起的。

Aim: In this study, the levels of urinary metabolites of toluene and xylene isomers in pregnant women in Isfahan and Khansar cities and their associations with air quality index (AQI) and demographic factors were investigated. Materials and Methods: Depending on the population, 55 pregnant women from Isfahan and 15 pregnant women from Khansar, a total of 70 people were enrolled in the study and 140 urine samples were collected during their 1st and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy (autumn and spring). Urinary metabolites of hippuric acid (HA), ortho-, meta-, and para-methyl HA (o-m-p-MHA) were extracted by dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method, derivatized and analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometer. The results were statistically correlated with AQI level and demographic factors using appropriate statistical methods. Results: Mean urinary concentrations of HA, o-m-p-MHA in the 1st trimester of pregnancy were 371.2, 1.14, 2.48, and 1.97 mg/g cr, and those in the 3rd trimester were 582.1, 3.54, 6.93, and 2.43 mg/g cr, respectively. In the 1st trimester, the mean urinary level of ortho-MHA was significantly associated with the outdoor exposure time on workdays and fragrances use (P < 0.05). In the 3rd trimester, the mean concentration of HA was significantly correlated to age and outdoor exposure time on workdays (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The mean urinary concentrations of HA and MHA isomers in the 1st trimester of pregnancy in Isfahan were more than those in Khansar. Because the level of air pollution in Isfahan was higher than Khansar and that in autumn was higher than spring. In the 3rd trimester of pregnancy, the mean levels of MHA isomers in Isfahan were more than those in Khansar. Only the amount of p-MHA was significantly associated with AQI in the 1st trimester of pregnancy. Thus, women who lived in high-traffic urban areas with high AQI were more exposed to toluene and xylene compounds.
