Inom hälso- och sjukvården används kostindex för att bedöma om en person har ohälsosamma matvanor. Kostindex hjälper forskare att bedöma hur graden av följsamhet, det vill säga i vilken utsträckning vi följer en viss diet, påverkar hälsan. Tillförlitliga kostindex är även viktiga för att myndigheter ska kunna utveckla hållbara näringsrekommendationer. Ett internationellt forskarlag har studerat sj

En ny studie ledd från Lunds universitet har löst ett flera år gammalt mysterium: vilka patienter med aggressiv bröstcancer som blir hjälpta av en målriktad cancerbehandling som varit under utveckling men som lagts i malpåse. Studien är angelägen då den väcker hopp om att läkemedlet kan fortsätta utvecklas och förhoppningsvis nå hela vägen till dessa patienter. Trots de amerikanska forskarnas anst

Personer med typ 2-diabetes har ökad risk för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar och förtida död till följd av åderförfettning och forskare söker efter förklaringar till detta. Ett forskarlag vid Lunds universitet har nu identifierat molekylära mekanismer som kan förklara den ökade risken. Deras upptäckt kan leda till mer träffsäkra behandlingar mot åderförfettning i samband med typ 2-diabetes Individer med typ

Have you noticed that when scientists are asked whether or not a particular extreme weather event is due to climate change, they usually respond with something like "It fits the pattern, but we can't say for sure that this particular event is worse because of climate change"? Weather attribution is a new phenomenon that is changing this. Climate scientist Wilhelm May at Lund University helps us ge
