Fetma och övervikt innebär en ökad risk för att utveckla typ 2-diabetes, men normalviktiga får också sjukdomen. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt att det går att identifiera individer med normal vikt som är i riskzonen genom att mäta BMI på ett nytt sätt. De har kartlagt överviktsliknande förändringar i ämnesomsättningen som kan kopplas till en ökad risk för att utveckla typ 2-diabetes.

En stor internationell studie (BLING III) ska undersöka bästa sättet att ge en viss antibiotika till svårt infektionssjuka i intensivvården. Målet är att få evidens för optimerad antibiotikabehandling och därigenom minska dödstalen till följd av sepsis. Totalt ska studien omfatta 7000 patienter och nu har de första patienterna inkluderats i den svenska delen av studien. – I sitt upplägg är det en

Over one hundred million years ago, the impact of an asteroid on the moon formed the giant crater Tycho, which is visible from Earth. The date of this event is established as being 109 million years ago, but a new doctoral thesis from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that the crater is probably much older. For several hundred years, humans have been fascinated by the Tycho crater, which is

A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica.

Scientists at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new understanding of how the first blood cells form during human development as they transition from endothelial cells to form blood cells of different types. Using a laboratory model of human stem cell development and by looking at the expression of blood cell and endothelial cell genes in each individual cell, they found a progression from

Researchers have identified an antioxidant – richly occurring in broccoli – as a new antidiabetic substance. A patient study shows significantly lower blood sugar levels in participants who ate broccoli extract with high levels of sulforaphane. “There are strong indications that this can become a valuable supplement to existing medication,” says Anders Rosengren, Docent in Metabolic Physiology at

Teaching is to be as highly valued as research when it comes to appointments and promotions. Despite this ambition, it has rarely worked that way in practice.
