Cancer – Lymphoma
The numbers of tumors of the lungs and livers in exposed animals were significantly higher than in sham-exposed controls. In addition, lymphomas were also found to be significantly elevated by exposure

The odds ratio for children whose bedrooms had MF levels of 0.4 microT or higher compared with the reference category (MF levels below 0.1 microT) was 2.6 (95% CI=0.76-8.6) for AML (Acute myelocytic leukemia) + ALL (Acute lymphoblastic leukemia) and 4.7 (1.15-19.0) for ALL only.
Inspired by a recent U.S. study showing poorer survival among children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) exposed to magnetic fields above 0.3 μT, we examine this relationship in a German cohort of childhood leukemia cases
For children younger than 6 years at diagnosis, outside perimeter measurements of the residence, ≥0.15 μT (1.5mG), were associated with increased leukemia risk.
A total of 1,928 leukemia patients, 956 brain cancer patients, and 3,082 controls were analyzed.
The case group was living significantly closer to power lines. More than half of the cases were exposed to two or three types of power lines
We now report that the same 1.2 microT, 60 Hz magnetic fields significantly block the growth inhibitory action of pharmacological levels of tamoxifen.
These results provide the first evidence that ELF frequency magnetic fields can act at the cellular levels to enhance breast cancer cell proliferation by blocking melatonin’s natural oncostatic action. In addition, there appears to be a dose threshold between 2 and 12 mG.
