Ülkemizde yüksek gerilim hatlarından yayılan
elektromanyetik alanlarla ilgili bir güvenlik limit düzenlemesi olmaması iletim
hatlarının, evlerin 4 metre gibi çok yakınından geçmesine yol açmaktadır.
Nitekim ikamet edilen yerin yüksek gerilim iletim hatlarına yakınlığı ile
çocukların cinsiyet oranları arasındaki ilişkiye dair yapılmış çalışmalar
mevcuttur. Bu çalışma ile 50-60 Hz frekans aralığında elektromanyetik alan
kaynağı olan hücre dağıtım ve trafo merkezleri yakınında ikamet eden ailelerin
çocuklarında cinsiyet insidansı araştırılmıştır. Kahramanmaraş ve Şanlıurfa il
merkezlerinde yer alan hücre dağıtım merkezleri ve trafo merkezleri çevresinde
100 m yarıçaplı alan içerisinde ikamet eden ailelerden, çocuk sahibi erkek
bireyler ile toplam 19 sorudan oluşan anketler yüz yüze görüşme ile
doldurulmuştur. Sonuçlar, elektromanyetik alan kaynaklarına yakınlığa,
cevaplayıcıların anketin yapıldığı evde ikamet sürelerine ve evde geçirdikleri
sürelere göre değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuşlardır. Araştırma sonucunda söz
konusu etkilerin erkek çocuk sayısı üzerine önemli bir etki yapmadığı fakat
maruz kalınan elektromanyetik alan yoğunluğunun kız çocuk sayısı üzerine önemli
derecede etki yaptığı tespit edilmiştir.
