Jan 1, 2026
This study used k-prototypes cluster analysis in two representative population-based datasets from Sweden (N=1576) and Finland (N=1233) to examine whether different symptom-attribution types (chemicals, electromagnetic fields, noise, etc.) form distinct disorders. The analysis separated participants with versus…

This population-based case-control study in Montréal (2008–2011) evaluated occupational extremely low-frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) exposure and postmenopausal breast cancer risk using a job-exposure matrix linked to lifetime job histories. Overall, it reports no association between occupational ELF-MF exposure…

This geo-epidemiological population-based study in Limousin (France) assessed modeled residential UHF-EMF exposure from GSM antennas and ALS incidence from 2000–2012. The authors report a statistically significant exposure–response trend and higher ALS risk in the highest exposure category versus non-exposure in both…

Jan 1, 2014
This population-based case-control study in Denmark examined whether distance from residence at birth to high-voltage overhead power lines was associated with childhood leukemia. Using GIS-based distance measures, the study did not find higher leukemia risk for children living within 0–199 m or 200–599 m of 132–400…

Jan 1, 2014
This population-based Italian case-control study (153 neuroblastoma cases; 1044 controls) evaluated maternal characteristics and perinatal exposures, including measured ELF-MF home exposure during pregnancy. The authors report no association between ELF-MF exposure and neuroblastoma risk. Increased risks were…
