Affektanfall är vanliga hos små barn och är ofarliga. Ändå genomgår barn ofta omotiverade undersökningar när de söker sjukvård. Anledningen är att det saknas både nationella och internationella riktlinjer hur dessa barn ska utredas. Nu har ett forskarteam på Lunds universitet lagt fram förslag på riktlinjer, för att barnen ska få färre akuta och oplanerade sjukvårdskontakter och i stället ett mer

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. IT IS HIGH TIME that we start thinking about how we define life, according to a group of Lund University researchers. An army of intelligent robots is growing in front of us, but also opportunities to alter people’s DNA, create super babies and, perhaps, to encounter life in space.“Human beings have always dreamed of

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Varför har du inte tagit din medicin? Glömt bort att göra det? Eller struntat i det? Båda anledningarna är vanliga, särskilt om du inte förrän det är för sent på ett negativt sätt känner av det du behandlas för. Ett exempel är behandlingen av blodfettsrubbningar som bevisligen räddar liv. Och diabetiker, både typ 2

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. The findings are published in the

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Hospitals should design premises and adapt their infection control routines to a society that no longer has effective antibiotics, and that is vulnerable to fast-spreading global pandemics. This is argued in a new dissertation from Lund University in Sweden. “Many hospitals in Sweden and the world are becoming old and

Each year, one in four women suffers from bacterial vaginosis, something that is currently treated with antibiotics. However, recently a gentler, antibiotic-free alternative has been authorised for sale in the EU. The chance discovery behind the innovation was made by a group of researchers from Lund University in Sweden. Stinging, itching and odorous vaginal discharge is a common and a stigmatise

A new study by researchers at Lund University supports the notion that patients with type 2 diabetes patient should be divided into subgroups and given individualised treatment. The study demonstrates that there are distinct epigenetic differences between different groups of patients with type 2 diabetes. The epigenetic markers are also associated with different risks of developing common complica

Stem cells from umbilical cords in Skåne are improved with nanotubes. By cross-pollinating nanotechnology with stem cell biology, researchers are creating gentle methods to ensure that more cells perform better. Blood stem cells are altered without showing that they have been modified. “If you are interested in working with blood stem cells in Sweden, this is the place to be.” So says Martin Hjort

Many people feel anxious about climate change and other trends in the world around us. However, there are constructive ways to cope with one’s emotions. Researcher Marlis Wullenkord sums up the current state of research. In step with the incorporation of the word ”klimatångest” (climate anxiety) in the Swedish vocabulary, more and more researchers have become interested in the concept. One of them
