Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Hjärtsvikt är en folksjukdom som drabbar 250 000 svenskar. Trots nya behandlingar, som moderna läkemedel och defibrillatorer, är dödligheten fortfarande hög och prognosen sämre än för vissa cancersjukdomar. Nu visar en ny studie ett samband mellan nedsatt kognitiv förmåga och en ökad risk för återinläggning på sjukh

Last year, researchers in Lund, Sweden, launched a ground-breaking theory that Earth was formed by pebbles that were sucked together into a celestial body over millions of years. This explanatory model has now been further supported by a new study which shows that cosmic dust also played a crucial role in the creation of our planet. It has become known as the pebble accretion theory. The radical i
