Vårdpersonal som fått utbildning i narrativ medicin är ofta bättre på att lyssna in, att förstå andras perspektiv. Det kan såklart handla om patie
Modern RNA-sekvensering kan ge bröstcancervården värdefulla ledtrådar och matcha enskilda patienter till rätt behandling – utifrån tumörens unika egenskaper och genuttryck. I en aktuell studie har data och genuttryck från drygt 7 700 cancertumörer använts för att utveckla vässade analysmodeller av RNA-sekvenseringen; en analys av ett enskilt vävnadsprov kan beskriva flera av tumörens egenskaper.

Men forskningen kring smittspridning talar sitt tydliga språk och idag finns sprutbyte på ett flertal platser i Sverige. Här erbjuds en svårnådd grupp behandling och på sikt en drogfri tillvaro.
