100,000 babies screened for high risk of type 1 diabetes

A total of 100,000 newborn babies have now been screened for type 1 diabetes within the framework of GPPAD (The Global Platform for the Prevention of Autoimmune Diabetes), a major European initiative to find children with a high hereditary risk of developing the disease. Number 100,000 was Arthur from Dresden in Germany, who was born on 15 July. Children who are found to be at high risk, have the

From enemy to friend – 33 million for reprogramming cancer cells

An international research project led from Lund University is now awarded 33 million SEK by the European Innovation Council, EIC Pathfinder. The idea behind the project is to use drugs to reprogram cancer cells into immune cells, in order to increase the body's natural anti-tumor response and fight cancer. And it is small molecules that will do the work. The research project that has received fund

New precision technology for immunotherapy

In recent years, great advances have been made in the development of new successful immunotherapies to treat cancer. CAR T-cell therapy and antibody treatments are two types of targeted immunotherapies that have revolutionised areas of cancer care. However, there are still significant challenges in the identification of cancer cell surface proteins as targets for immunotherapies. A research group

Death is our textbook on life

Pathologists and coroners are now commonplace in crime novels and TV crime series and are often depicted as slightly odd people. Elisabet Englund has worked at the Division of Pathology in Lund for over 40 years. She has often been told that she is a little ‘too happy’ to be a pathologist. “Yes, there is a stereotype of people who work with dead people, which perhaps contributes to the mystificati

Best treatment for cardiac arrest – new international study will provide answers

The guidelines governing the treatment of sudden cardiac arrest exhibit variation across different nations, with treatment strategies often resting on a limited evidential foundation. A randomized international study is underway poised to address some of the most pivotal questions. Encompassing a cohort of 3,500 patients, this study aims to scrutinize the impact of different fever treatments, cont

Gut and mouth bacteria give researchers new clues about atherosclerosis

What is the link between atherosclerosis and gut and mouth bacteria? Researchers behind a large new study have found several new connections. In the long term, this knowledge can benefit people with type 2 diabetes, a group with an increased risk of developing atherosclerosis. In atherosclerosis, fat and calcium have accumulated in the artery walls over time, forming so called atherosclerotic plaq

New palliative centre to improve skills in end-of-life care

Death in the form of a skeleton with a scythe is a familiar figure of dread, but death and dying do not have to be frightening. “Death does not have to be marked by fear; it can just as often be characterised by calm and quiet. There can be a lot of joy even during the last days of a person’s life!” Carl Johan Furst. These are the words of Professor Carl Johan Fürst, head of the new Palliative Car

Improved screening efficiency for type 1 diabetes with simplified blood draw

Diabetes researchers have established methods for screening people with an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Current methods require multiple blood samples during each visit. An international team of researchers has developed a simplified screening method, which will increase screening efficiency. Type 1 diabetes is a disease that requires lifelong treatment with insulin. People of all
