Electromagnetic field exposures and childhood leukaemia in New Zealand.
A nationwide case-control study of childhood leukaemia in New Zealand included measurements of electric and magnetic fields in children's homes. There was no significant association between leukaemia and the time-weighted average of the 50 Hz magnetic or electric fields in the bedroom and living (or daytime) room combined.
