| Resumen |
Experimental and epidemiologic studies on the effects of low-frequency magnetic fields on pregnancy are reviewed. Most of the epidemiologic studies have concerned operators of a video display terminal (VDT). The results do not provide evidence for an association between adverse pregnancy outcome and use of a VDT. Other (stronger) sources of low-frequency magnetic fields have been addressed in only a few studies. It is not yet possible to conclude whether occupational or residential exposure to low-frequency magnetic fields affects human prenatal development. There is an apparent need for further investigation. |
