The brain's big-eating immune cells can slow down the progression of Alzheimer's disease. This is shown by a study that is now published in Nature Aging. The brain's own immune cells are called microglia and are found in the central nervous system. They are big eaters that kill viruses, damaged cells and infectious agents they come across. It has long been known that microglial cells can be activa

A new study have identified which blood tests are best at detecting Alzheimer’s disease during the earliest stages, and also another blood test that is optimal for detecting relevant treatment effects. These findings will speed up the development of new therapies that can slow down the disease progression. The article was originally published as a press release from the Sahlgrenska Academy, Univer

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o

En stor svensk-tysk studie visar att trots betydande investeringar i det korta perspektivet lönar det sig sannolikt att på längre sikt anpassa bostäder för äldre i större skala. Kostnaden för att avlägsna de fem miljöhinder i Sverige som skulle vara till störst nytta för de äldre är betald inom drygt ett år genom minskade kostnader för hemtjänst. Resultaten publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskrift

In Sweden, class actions - such as the ongoing Aurora case, where 300 young people are suing the government for failing to implement climate policies - are rare. Too rare, according to the sociologist of law Michael Molavi. He argues that Sweden would benefit from more class actions and that the state should finance the legal costs. On 21 March, Nacka District Court announced that the youth group
