Egentid, partid och mer fritid i vardagen. Många bär på en önskan om mer tid – men finns det ett hållbart förhållningssätt till tid? Under Hållbarhetsveckan i Lund möts historiken David Larsson Heidenblad och tidsikonen Bodil Jönsson i ett fördjupande samtal. I många svenska hem finns ett vältummat exemplar av Bodil Jönssons bok Tio tankar om tid, en bok som för 20 år sedan såldes i över 600 000 e
Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Den insulinbildande betacellen är starkt beroende av kolesterol för att fungera normalt. Endast en blygsam sänkning av mängden kolesterol i cellens vägg halverar kapaciteten för insulinfrisättning, visar forskare vid LUDC. Detta är ett betydelsefullt fynd eftersom i stort sett alla diabetiker, oavsett kolesterolnivå

Femton nydiagnostiserade typ 1 diabetiker har i kombination med starka cellgifter behandlats med stamceller från den egna benmärgen. Fjorton kunde sluta med insulininjektioner i varierande lång tid. Nackdelen, behandlingen är farlig. Experimentet som är utfört av forskare vid School of Medicine, universitetet i Sao

Eating cheese and cream with a high fat content may be linked to a lower risk of developing dementia. This is shown by a new large-scale study from Lund University. The researchers analysed the dietary habits of more than 27,000 people and linked these to the occurrence of dementia over a follow-up period of up to 25 years. The debate about low-fat diets has long shaped our health advice and influ

Blodproppar kan uppstå både i artärer och vener. Men orsakerna bakom skiljer sig åt, liksom konsekvenserna och möjligheterna att förebygga blodpropp. I Sverige har nästan hälften av alla fall av venös blodpropp en genetisk förklaring. Nu har ett forskarteam från Lunds universitet upptäckt tre genvarianter som ökar risken för benpropp med upp till 180 procent. Det är skillnad mellan arteriella och
