Chefer lider allt oftare av psykisk ohälsa vilket i sin tur även påverkar organisationernas välmående. Ny forskning pekar på att reflekterande samtal med fokus på chefernas hälsa kan vara en viktig åtgärd för att hantera denna ökande problematik. – Chefer behöver bekräftelse på att deras mående är av stor betydelse för organisationen. Deras roll, med ansvar för verksamheten och övriga medarbetare,

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Det är fler 70-80-åringar som insjuknar i typ 1 diabetes än barn. En ny svensk studie visar att bara blodprov kan säkra en riktig diabetesdiagnos och behandling. En stor svensk kartläggning av så gott som samtliga i Kronobergs län som insjuknat i diabetes under tre år slår hål på flera myter om vem som drabbas av vi

Researchers have identified 395 genes that are differently expressed in people with type 2 diabetes. One of the genes proved to be very strongly associated with impaired insulin secretion. Now, researchers want to investigate if it is possible to use the genetic CRISPR/Cas9 scissors to correct the gene’s activity. The research team’s scientific paper was published in the Journal of Clinical Invest

Food impacts not only the body but also the brain. Researchers at Lund University strive to understand how a diet rich on fat and sugar impacts memory functions in relation to obesity and type 2 diabetes. Their new study on mice shows that although an unhealthy diet leads to memory impairment, the damage does not have to be permanent. Obesity is a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes and car

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New results from the Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study showed an association between prolonged enterovirus infection and the development of autoimmunity to the insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells that precedes type 1 diabetes (T1D). Notably, researchers also found that early adenovi

Where, how often, and how much it is going to rain or snow in the future is difficult to predict. Anders Ahlström studies the importance of precipitation for ecosystems on Earth – and contributes with new knowledge in a complex and fraught area. Across the world, researchers are in agreement on future warming patterns. However, future precipitation is more difficult to predict, and climate models

When used as a diagnostic aid, artificial intelligence (AI) can help physicians save time and make more accurate diagnoses. However, physicians should also understand and be able to explain the computer’s decision to the patient to avoid jeopardising trust, says AI researcher Stefan Larsson. AI also puts us at a crossroads: do we want to reflect the world or change it? Stefan Larsson is a research

Why do some people develop type 1 diabetes and others do not? Worldwide, researchers are now collaborating to find the answer to this complex question. Diabetes researchers at Lund University recently contributed data to a new study that shows that type 1 diabetes develops in three different ways in children.
