Abstract

Study is directed to power frequency (PF) electric and magnetic field (EF and PF) occupational exposure possible effects to carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. As part of the periodic medical examination based in the FSBI «Izmerov Research Institute of Occupational Health», 144 men occupationally exposed by PF electromagnetic field (EMF) were examined. The control group consisted of 40 practically healthy men who were not in contact with the studied harmful factor. Based on the results of therapeutic examination and the results of a biochemical blood test, a metabolic syndrome (MS) was established in some of the persons. It was revealed that 55.5% of the employees of the main group have MS, more than 80% of men have a violation of lipid metabolism, and 43% of the subjects - carbohydrate metabolism. Higher indicators of carbohydrate metabolism were revealed in the group of primary exposure PF EMF magnetic component. Only. The group of primary exposure to both components of PF EMF (EF and MF) had higher levels of lipid metabolism. Obtained results indicate a negative effect of PF EMF occupational exposure to lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.
