A research study at Lund University shows that there is an association between selenium deficiency and an increased risk of developing heart failure. The risk is twice as high for individuals with low selenium levels. Heart failure is a common condition affecting 250 000 Swedes. In heart failure, the heart cannot pump enough blood into the body, and the disease is associated with a poor prognosis.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best. The researchers in the BECC action group looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region. A p

The Dean has decided that Colm Doyle, Head of Unit for BIKT, will be responsible for the Faculty's IT network. The decision has been made in light of increased demands for clear roles and responsibilities in the University's IT security work. Until this change, the network responsibility has followed the line of work."So in practice, the Head of Department has been responsible for his or her part

A new study from Lund University in Sweden raises questions about the efficacy of bariatric operations involving gastric bypass. The results show that the biggest metabolic changes happened directly after surgery. Just a year after the operation, the concentration of metabolites and fats had returned to almost the same levels as before the procedure.  Previous research has shown that the majority

People with type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease and dying prematurely due to atherosclerosis. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has now identified molecular mechanisms that may explain the increased risk. Their discovery may lead to more accurate treatments for patients with atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes in the future. People with type 2 diabete

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In May, screening for colorectal cancer will be offered in Skåne to all those born in 1961. Subsequently, Swedes aged 60 to 74 will be tested for blood in their faeces, to detect cancer at an early stage. Once all regions in Sweden have introduced the screening, at least 300 lives are expected to be saved per year. Sw

Med hjälp av en matematisk modell har forskare lyckats koppla samman bekräftade covid-19-fall med intensivvårdsinskrivningar och dödsfall. Modellen, som gör det möjligt att förutse och planera sjukvårdsbelastning, kan bli värdefull under den pågående pandemin samt vid framtida epidemier. Det är med hjälp av en så kallad FIR-modell (en typ av filter för digitala system) som ett svenskt forskarlag,

Genom att tillsätta kostfiber i samband med brödbakning kan risken för att drabbas av vår tids folksjukdomar, typ 2 diabetes och hjärt-och kärlsjukdomar, minskas. En ny avhandling från Lunds universitet visar att unga, friska personers blodsockersvar var lägre efter att ha ätit specialbakade bröd jämfört med ett vit

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Mättat fett är mer fettbildande och mindre muskeluppbyggande än fleromättat fett, visar tidigare forskning. En ny studie visar att valet av fett orsakar epigenetiska förändringar som i sin tur skulle kunna bidra till skillnaderna i fettlagringen. Den så kallade ”Muffinsstudien” rönte stor uppmärksamhet när den kom 2
