Pooled analysis of recent studies of magnetic fields and childhood leukemia

Creators

Description

This new pooled analysis covers studies on childhood leukemia and the magnetic field of the electricity transmission network published since 2010. Compared with the pooled analyses published in 2000 and 2010, it does not confirm the previously reported rise in risk and finds that risk decreases over time. This news is based on the following article: Amoon A.T., Swanson J., Magnani C., Johansen C., Kheifets L. 'Pooled analysis of recent studies of magnetic fields and childhood leukemia'. Environmental Research 2021; 204: 111993. Doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.111993. (author)

Abstract (French)

Cette nouvelle analyse poolee concerne les etudes sur les leucemies de l'enfant et le champ magnetique du reseau de transport de l'electricite publiees depuis 2010. Elle se compare aux analyses poolees precedemment publiees en 2000 et 2010 et ne confirme pas l'elevation du risque publiee precedemment. Elle retrouve une diminution du risque au cours du temps. Cette breve est tiree de l'article suivant: Amoon AT, Swanson J, Magnani C, Johansen C, Kheifets L. Pooled analysis of recent studies of magnetic fields and childhood leukemia. Environmental Research 2021; 204: 111993. Doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2021.111993. (auteur)
