Prospective observational studies have shown previously that study participants have lower morbidity and mortality than non-participants. The aim of the current study was to determine whether participants in a prospective cohort study on melanoma have a different incidence and mortality of melanoma compared with non-participants and the background population. Information was collected from Swedish

Earlier studies have implied a change in dietary habits of the Swedish population towards a low carbohydrate, high fat diet. Questions have been raised about the development in recent years and potential health effects. We have investigated the dietary intake of Swedish female students enrolled in a university nutrition course between 2002 and 2017. The students carried out self-reporting of all f

We reweighted the Malmö Diet and Cancer (MDC) study based on population register data on background variables, including socio-demographics and hospital admissions for both participants and the background population. Following individuals from baseline in 1991-1996 and at most until 2016, we studied mortality (all-cause, cancer, and CVD), incidences (cancer and CVD), and associations between these

The more sugar we eat, the lower intake of vitamins and minerals we have, show new findings from Lund University Diabetes Centre. High sugar intake has been associated with numerous diseases and conditions such as dental caries, obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. In this study the researcher have examined the effect of added sugar - that is sugar added to food and beverages during proc

The strategic research areas (SRAS) host half-day workshops that discuss sustainability across research environments at Lund University. After nine engaging workshops, three more workshops are planned on topics of equality in research environments, research impact of multidisciplinary collaborations, and writing policy briefs. “Not everyone sees their research as relevant to sustainability,” says

The HLF gene is necessary for maintaining our blood stem cells in a resting state, which is crucial for ensuring normal blood production. This has been shown by a new research study from Lund University in Sweden published in Cell Reports. “The study confirms several previous studies that show the HLF gene’s significance in blood formation”, says Mattias Magnusson who led the new study. The result

A warmer global climate can cause mutations to have more severe consequences for the health of organisms through their detrimental effect on protein function. This may have major repercussions for an organisms’ ability to adapt to, and survive in, the altered habitats of the future. This is shown in a new research study now published in the scientific journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Na

Many of us have noticed the increasing frequency of climate protests organised by Extinction Rebellion (XR) across Sweden. What do these protests represent? Is this just another group of tree-huggers being a public nuisance? Or is this a needed development in taking our climate goals further?

Plaståtervinning och avfallshantering i all ära, men vad blir den egentliga miljövinsten om plastproduktionen fördubblas inom den närmaste 20-årsperioden? Den frågan ställer sig forskare som menar att mer fokus måste läggas på hur plasten produceras. En ny forskningsstudie visar att det inte finns något politiskt intresse för de initiala stegen plastens livscykel; det vill säga vilka råvaror använ

Personer med ursprung i Mellanöstern och Afrika är särskilt utsatta för diskriminering och trakasserier i arbetslivet. Denna utsatthet kan leda till minoritetsstress, vilket i sin tur riskerar att orsaka långvarig psykisk ohälsa. Detta menar Martin Wolgast och Sima Nurali Wolgast, psykologiforskare vid Lunds universitet, i en ny rapport. Studien, som gjordes på uppdrag av Myndigheten för arbetsmil
