Can using using electronic devices near the stomach cause any problems like cancer?

No: I dismiss "pop" claims about electromagnetic fields causing cancer. It makes no sense biologically, linemen who work high-tension wires have no increase in cancers, and the paper showing the strongest correlation was retracted when it was proved to be a fake. Use that abs belt carefully but without fear of cancer.
