Enkele recente epidemiologische studies legden een verband tussen ELF blootstelling en een verhoogd risico op de ziekte van Alzheimer. Dit verband is nog niet aangetoond maar wetenschappers proberen het fenomeen te begrijpen (zie bijvoorbeeld BBEMG-project Ziekte van Alzheimer)
Hierna volgt een niet-volledige lijst van referenties met links naar samenvattingen van deze studies (op PubMed en EMF-portal).
