Att havre kan sänka blodets kolesterolhalt har forskarna vetat ett tag. Men gäller det oavsett hur havren behandlats i olika livsmedelsprodukter? Och varför varierar den effekten mellan olika människor? Ny forskning från Lunds universitet gör det möjligt att svara på dessa frågor. Kärlfysiologen Kristina Andersson har i en av studierna i sin avhandling undersökt om havrekli påverkar åderförfettnin

What do human remains really have to do with a museum? When Lund University closed the Department of Anatomy of 1995, its collection of human remains was transferred to the Historical Museum. Now, the museum wants to conduct a proper review of the collection in order to communicate more about it. Human remains in a museum context awaken many feelings. As recently as last year, Lund University hand

Ethnologist Susanne Lundin’s research is ultimately about life and death and how people relate to the inevitable. What are people willing to do to delay the end briefly? Is there a limit beyond which someone ceases to be human? Susanne Lundin is a professor at the Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences and has conducted interdisciplinary research with medics for 30 years. Today, she is a sought-

How do you talk about a horrible and life-threatening condition in such a way as to make your audience aware of its existence, but without scaring them so much that they turn a deaf ear? And how do you get money for research into something that most people have barely heard about – or only know of under an old and partly incorrect name? This is the problem that a team of LU researchers are tacklin

Ninety thousand people die in Sweden every year. Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available because of a shortage of intensive care beds. Simply dying is not enough to become an

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the link between osteoarthritis and mortality in an epidemiological study. It was shown that the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease was higher for people with osteoarthritis than for the rest of the population. Using population registers, the researchers studied approximately 469 000 people living in Skåne, Sweden, who in 2003 were

A small proportion of women who receive anti-estrogen treatment after breast cancer surgery have worse outcomes. This is associated with mutations in the estrogen receptor gene, according to a study from Lund University now published in JNCI Cancer Spectrum.   “If our results are confirmed in further studies, it would be relevant to screen for these resistance mutations already at diagnosis, and t
