In patients with symptoms such as irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or fainting, or in individuals that physicians suspect may have atrial fibrillation, many days of ECGs may be required for diagnosis – “long-term ECG recordings”. These recordings must then undergo a time-consuming and human resource-intensive review to identify heart rhythm abnormalities. In a large international study, researcher

Writing a thesis can be both lonely and difficult to get started with. To support students in the writing process, the Faculty of Science Library and the Academic Support Centre at Lund University have launched a joint digital initiative combining focused writing sessions with Q&A drop-ins.“We noticed that students often come to us with questions that fall somewhere between the library and the Aca

Many of those who are genetically predisposed to develop atrial fibrillation, which dramatically raises the risk of stroke, can be identified with a blood test. This is shown by new research from Lund University in Sweden. The number of people affected by atrial fibrillation is rising rapidly, partly as a result of the ageing population. Over recent years, a research group at Lund University in Sw

Two issues that have taken up a relatively large part of my time since I became pro vice-chancellor five years ago are the management of research data and IT security. Both were areas in which LU did not really live up to the expectations of a top 100 university. There are, naturally, many points of contact between the areas, and both require a larger element of university-wide solutions than what

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. TEDDY- studien har sedan 2004, med hjälp av navelsträngsblod, identifierat skånska barn som har en ökad ärftlig risk att få diabetes. Nu fortsätter studien med uppföljning av 2 500 av dessa barn tills de blir 15 år. Forskarna hoppas att TEDDY-studien ska ge svar på varför barn får diabetes. Typ 1 diabetes drabbar nä

De senaste åren har de digitala vårdalternativen för patienter med knä- och höftartros ökat kraftigt – inte minst på grund av pandemin. Men hittills har det inte gjorts några studier som har jämfört effekten av de digitala vårdinsatserna med de traditionellt fysiska. I en studie som publiceras i tidskriften JAMA Network Open, har forskare jämfört de två artrosskolorna. Cirka var fjärde person över
