Diabetes is currently treated using incretin hormones to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and other medical issues that the illness can trigger. Now researchers from Lund University in Sweden have noted new links between these hormones and arteriosclerosis, and believe their discovery could be significant for treatment of diabetes in the future. The study is published in Diabetes Care. Wh

Twenty University staff members participated as test cyclists on the super cycle path between Södra Sandby and Lund over a six-week period in September and October. The results exceeded expectations and most of the test cyclists who had not commuted by bike before improved their fitness and sleep. Are you thinking about starting to cycle to work in the spring? If so, you may be inspired by a proje

Diabetesforskare vid Lunds universitet har tidigare visat att det är möjligt att dela in diabetes i fem olika grupper med olika sjukdomsutveckling. En ny studie av samma forskare ger ökat stöd för att indelningen kan bli användbar inom sjukvården i framtiden. Forskarna har dessutom gjort nya fynd som visar på skillnader mellan grupperna när det gäller utvecklingen av komplikationer. Många patiente
