与儿童癌症一样，成人癌症与患者住所附近的大电流电线结构（HCC）有关。这样的电线会使居住者暴露在交变磁场（AMF）中，其强度虽然很低，但可能会产生生理影响。数据中的几种模式表明HCC和癌症可能存在因果关系：发现了剂量关系。这种联系似乎不是年龄、城市化、社区或社会经济水平的人工产物。当城市/工业因素引起的癌症最不容易掩盖其影响时，这种关联最明显。首次暴露于HCC和癌症诊断之间存在明显的潜伏期模式，这与AMF暴露产生癌症促进的假设一致。
Like childhood cancer, adult cancer was associated with high-current electrical wiring configurations (HCC) near the patient''s residence. Such wiring can expose occupants of the residence to alternating magnetic fields (AMF) at a level which, though very low, may produce physiological effects. Several patterns in the data suggest that HCC and cancer may be causally linked: a dose-relationship was found. The association did not appear to be an artefact of age, urbanization, neighborhood, or socioeconomic level. The association was most clearly demonstrable when cancer caused by urban/industrial factors was least apt to obscure the effect. A distinct pattern of latency between 1st exposure to the HCC and cancer diagnosis was seen, which is consistent with a hypothesis of cancer promotion produced by AMF exposure.
