The epidemiology of electric and magnetic field exposures in the power frequency range and reproductive outcomes
Paediatr Perinat Epidemiol.

Abstract
Some laboratory studies have reported effects of extremely low frequency electric and magnetic fields on calcium homeostasis and pineal gland function which potentially could have consequences for reproductive health. The purpose of this review is to report results of research to date in humans on maternal, paternal and fetal exposure to the 50-60 Hz fields associated with electricity, and to propose populations, endpoints and strategies for future research.
