A project at Lund University in Sweden has trained an AI model to identify breast cancer patients who could be spared from axillary surgery. The model analyses previously unutilised information in mammograms and pinpoints with high accuracy the individual risk of metastasis in the armpit. A newly completed study shows that the model indicates that just over 40 per cent of today’s axillary surgery

Why do some people oppose interventions meant to protect them from climate hazards, and what forms of resistance are available to those most vulnerable and exposed? These questions are explored in a new literature study from LUCSUS that maps where people resist climate adaptation; how, and in what contexts. It shows that resistance to adaptation occurs overtly and covertly, in both low-income and

The symptom profiles of different neurodegenerative diseases often overlap, and diagnosing age-related cognitive symptoms is complex. A patient may have multiple overlapping disease processes in the brain at the same time. Now, researchers at Lund University have developed an AI model showing that it is possible to detect several neurodegenerative diseases from a single blood sample. The study is

Research is like solving a puzzle, some might say. One of the biggest of these is the body’s proteins – with over 90,000 pieces to keep track of. LUM meets three professors of protein to understand what makes the subject so fascinating and how they are working to understand when proteins go wrong in the body. If a research field were to be evaluated based on the number of Nobel Prizes it has been

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new blood test demonstrated remarkable promise in discriminating between persons with and without Alzheimer’s disease and in persons at known genetic risk may be able to detect the disease as early as 20 years before the onset of cognitive impairment, according to a large international study published today in the J

Climate change is damaging public health and is also leading to premature deaths. At the same time, the healthcare sector itself is responsible for significant emissions. Studies of intensive care and surgical care in Sweden show that over 60 per cent of the climate impact in intensive care is driven by the growing volume of single-use products, according to research by Linn Hemberg at Lund Univer

Just over two weeks after the climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world’s countries are meeting again, this time to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. The issue is less well-known than the climate crisis and no framework corresponding to the Paris agreement is in place – something that many people hope the December summit in Montreal will rectify.

Allt fler vill hjälpa bin och andra pollinerare och väljer därför att odla blommor rika på nektar och pollen. Men vilka blommor gör allra störst nytta? Enligt pollineringsforskare beror det på syftet. Vill man gynna hotade biarter och den biologiska mångfalden bör man välja en mångfald av växter av inhemskt ursprung. Är man lantbrukare med stora arealer insektspollinerade jordbruksgrödor kan det v

New research at Lund University shows that the biological parents’ genes affect the child's insulin function and capacity to regulate blood sugar levels and blood lipids in different ways. Such knowledge may be used to develop preventive treatments that reduce the child's risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
