Ergebnisse (lt. Autor)
Es wurde ein signifikant erhöhtes Risiko für Brustkrebs im Zusammenhang mit einer Exposition bei extrem niederfrequenten Magnetfeldern beobachtet (OR 1,10; KI 1,01-1,20). Eine nach dem Menopause-Status getrennte Analyse zeigte ein signifikant erhöhtes Risiko in der Gruppe der prämenopausalen Frauen (OR 1,25; KI 1,05-1,49) und ein nicht-signifikant erhöhtes Risiko in der Gruppe der postmenopausalen Frauen (OR 1,04; KI 0,93-1,18).
Die Autoren schlussfolgern, dass die Exposition bei extrem niederfrequenten Magnetfeldern das Risiko für Brustkrebs erhöhen könnte, insbesondere bei prämenopausalen Frauen.
