Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har funnit en ny länk mellan tarmbakterier och fetma. Länken utgörs av vissa aminosyror i blodet som kopplades till både fetma och tarmbakteriernas sammansättning. Fynden kan bidra till utvecklingen av nya sätt att förebygga fetma. Kunskapen om våra tarmbakterier och tarmflorans betyde

Förträngningar i hjärtats blodkärl är en möjlig följdsjukdom vid typ 1-diabetes som på sikt kan leda till hjärtinfarkt och hjärtsvikt. I regel drabbas kvinnor av kranskärlssjukdom senare än män, men om kvinnan har typ 2-diabetes minskar den fördelen. Det gäller även vid typ 1-diabetes, visar forskare vid Karolinska

Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a certain type of cells – foam cells – in patients with the aggressive brain tumour glioblastoma. It has been shown how these cells accelerate the cancer’s growth and that this can be successfully inhibited using a drug developed for arteriosclerosis. Glioblastoma affects around 500 Swedes every year and is the most common and most aggres

When a patient with heart failure has received a new heart and survives – the transplantation is deemed a success. However, healthcare overlooks heart recipients who suffer from long-term and often severe symptoms, such as pain and fatigue. New research at Lund University in Sweden shows that simple support in symptom management can make a considerable difference to the patients’ wellbeing. Each y

A research team led by Lund University in Sweden has developed an AI tool that traces back the most recent places you have been to. The tool acts like a satellite navigation system, but instead of guiding you to your hotel, it identifies the geographical source of microorganisms. This means you can use bacteria to determine whether someone has just been to the beach, got off the train in the city
