En ny svensk studie visar att bara blodprov kan säkra en riktig diabetesdiagnos och behandling. En stor svensk kartläggning av så gott som samtliga i Kronobergs län som insjuknat i diabetes under tre år slår hål på flera myter om vem som drabbas av vi

Mer än varannan tonårsflicka blödde rikligt och 40 procent hade järnbrist. Forskningen som är ledd från Lunds universitet visar även att ett enkelt formulär kan användas för att upptäcka unga tonårsflickor med riklig mens som löper ökad risk. Så många som hälften av tonårsflickorna i studien som publiceras i PLOS One hade rikliga menstruationer, och fyra av tio hade järnbrist. Studien genomfördes

TEMA FORSKNING I EN OROLIG VÄRLD. När det planeras för mat i kristider – vilka livsmedel föreställer vi oss då?Konservburkar och frystorkad mat tänker många, men faktum är att om det uppstår en kris så är det inte bunkrade konserver som räddar oss. Livsmedelsberedskap är ett ämne som tas upp av forskare från LTH i Almedalen i sommar, och en av deras reflektioner är att lokala odlingar av grödor so

Borders don’t just divide nations — they define our bodies too. At the skin and in the gut, our barrier organs form the frontline of defense against infection. Here, diverse communities of friendly microbes, the microbiota, help maintain health and keep these borders strong, backed up by an immune system ready to deploy antibodies against any intruder. Protecting these barrier organs is central to

Pathologists and coroners are now commonplace in crime novels and TV crime series and are often depicted as slightly odd people. Elisabet Englund has worked at the Division of Pathology in Lund for over 40 years. She has often been told that she is a little ‘too happy’ to be a pathologist. “Yes, there is a stereotype of people who work with dead people, which perhaps contributes to the mystificati

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A hot topic among cancer researchers is vesicles, nanoparticles that flow in our veins in their billions and which have proven to hold information on the health status of the body. Now the hope is to be able to capture and decode the messages in the vesicles via a standard blood test. Thomas Laurell, professor of biom

Using micro-designed soil models, researchers at Lund University and members of BECC, have investigated how tiny particles of polystyrene affect bacteria and fungi. Although this nanoplastic reduced both bacterial and fungal growth, the fungus actually managed to 'clean up' its environment and mitigate the impact of the plastic. - Plastic waste is a huge problem today.

Market economics, not degrowth, will enable sustainable societies. For economist Fredrik N G Andersson the answer is crystal clear – researchers advocating for degrowth are wrong. “They miss the mark by attacking growth instead of the actual problem,” he says. The subject of degrowth awakes a lot of interest. Its critics are as vocal as its proponents. Fredrik N G Andersson, assistant professor at
