この研究は、健常なボランティア6人(28-52歳;平均35歳)の前腕部正中神経に電力周波磁界ばく露を行い、神経伝導機構の変化の可能性を調べた。磁界ばく露は、50Hzヘルムホルツコイルに前腕を通して行われ、磁界強度は約1mTとした。磁界ばく露前、磁界ばく露実験中、ばく露終了後の3回、正中神経の遠位部または近位部にそれぞれ刺激頻度2Hz、パルス幅0.2msの最大上刺激を与え、そのときの短母指外転筋(APB)の応答(活動電位振幅)を記録した。その結果、(遠位刺激時の振幅)/(近位刺激時の振幅)の比は、ばく露後に比べばく露前では有意に低かったことを報告している。

To examine whether exposure of humans to 50 Hz-magnetic fields influences the nerve conduction mechanism in the arm.
6 healthy volunteers were examined. Measurements were performed three times for every proband: 1.) before exposure, 2.) during exposure and 3.) after exposure. The median nerve from the right arm was stimulated on the elbow and on the wrist with pulses (0.2 ms, 2 Hz). The motor responses were recorded from the Abductor pollicis brevis muscle (abductor of the thumb), using surface electrodes.

No significant differences were seen between the measurements during the exposure and the measurements before and after the exposure. However, a significant decrease in the stimulus conduction was observed in the measurements after the exposure when compared to the measurements before the exposure.
The authors conclude that these results could indicate a potential deleterious effect of 50 Hz-magnetic field exposure on human nerves.
