Abstract
Laboratory studies have shown that electromagnetic fields similar to those from high voltage transmission lines can produce biological effects. Surveys of the actual effects of such lines on exposed individuals usually were hampered by complicating factors tending to blur the data. Using a new approach correlation was established between the presence of transmission-line fields and the occurrence of suicide in part of the Midlands of England, UK.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
