Alltmer forskning ger stöd för att diabetes kan delas in i fem olika undergrupper. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har nu undersökt om en persons genetiska risk för olika undergrupper kan användas för att bedöma risken att utveckla kranskärlssjukdom. Forskarlaget utvecklade genetiska riskpoäng och fann att poängen för en undergrupp kunde förutsäga kranskärlssjukdom redan innan en diabetesdiagnos ha

Vid årsskiftet firar Skåne två år som en region med SMS-livräddning. Närmare 24 000 skåningar har anmält sig villiga att rycka ut när mobilen larmar om hjärtstopp i närheten. Lundaforskare tittar nu närmare på förloppet vid hjärtstopp utanför sjukhus: Hur ser förutsättningarna ut för de utryckande civilpersonerna? Och hur går det för de personer som överlever? – Vi i Skåne har en mycket robust HLR

Israel is in shock. The most basic task of a country's defence forces is to guard and protect its borders. Yet the Israeli army was caught completely off guard when thousands of terrorists entered the country to murder and take hostages.

Researchers in Lund have discovered an antitoxin mechanism that seems to be able to neutralise hundreds of different toxins and may protect bacteria against virus attacks. The mechanism has been named Panacea, after the Greek goddess of medicine whose name has become synonymous with universal cure. The understanding of bacterial toxin and antitoxin mechanisms will be crucial for the future success

Huntington's disease is known as the "dance disease" due to the patient's characteristic motor symptoms. However, Elna Dickson's Ph.D. project shows that the disease also leads to pathological changes outside the brain.

A record number of PhD students, around 25, from 10 of SWEAH's 13 partner universities, participated in the spring SWEAH PhD Student Days at Kristianstad University last week. It was a replay of the popular theme "Introduction to Writing Retreats". As usual, the doctoral students networked, shared experiences and learned new things during a lecture on how AI can be used in scientific writing, and

During the spring, the Purchasing and Procurement Office will gradually take over responsibility for all procurements over SEK 700,000. The previous threshold (below which no support was available) was SEK 1.5 million. A new procedure is being introduced, which means that procurements worth over SEK 700,000 will be carried out with support from procurement officers in the Division of Finances. The

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt att mängden av ett mikroRNA är förhöjt vid typ 2-diabetes och påverkar utsöndringen av insulin negativt. Deras försök på mänskliga insulinproducerade celler i bukspottskörteln visar även att det går att öka insulinutsöndringen genom att minska mängden av detta mikroRNA. Målsättningen är att forskningen ska leda till nya behandlingar för personer med sjuk
