摘要: In view of reports health problems induced by low frequency (50-60 Hz) electromagnetic fields (EMF), we carried out a study in 18 healthy subjects, comparing sleep with and without exposure to 50 Hz/1 mu Tesla electrical field. We found that the EMF condition was associated reduced: total time (TST), efficiency, stages 3 + 4 slow wave (SWS), activity (SWA). Circulating melatonin, growth hormone, prolactin, testosterone or cortisol were not affected. The results suggest commonly occurring may interfere sleep.
