This cohort study evaluated Alzheimer's disease incidence in relation to residential extremely low frequency magnetic fields from indoor transformer stations, using apartment location as an exposure proxy. No significant association was observed between living next to transformer stations and Alzheimer's disease risk (HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.85–1.22). Duration of residence did not materially change risk, and a younger-start subgroup showed a non-significant elevation. The authors note the results did not replicate previously reported positive associations from other residential or occupational studies.

This simulation study modeled EMF exposure from an electric vehicle DC charging pile transformer using adult and child human models at several distances and for in-vehicle occupants during charging. Reported peak B-field and E-field values at 0.1 m and modeled internal exposures decreased with distance and remained below stated ICNIRP occupational and public limits. Frequency comparisons (85–95 kHz) indicated decreasing B-field with higher frequency while E-field stayed relatively stable. The authors note the need for real-world measurement validation and further assessment in sensitive populations and multi-source settings.
