En randomiserad klinisk studie ledd av forskare vid Lunds universitet har jämfört effekten av intravenös behandling med ketamin mot ECT-behandling vid svår depression. Resultaten stärker bilden av ketamin som en möjlig behandling, men visar också att ECT-behandling hjälper fler. Under senare år har ketamin seglat upp som en ny behandling, eftersom studier visat att det har en antidepressiv effekt.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Ökad livslängd och en större andel äldre i Sverige och andra länder leder också till en ökad användning av läkemedel. En ny avhandling från Lunds universitet belyser för första gången på ett mer omfattande vis nyttan av att redan i primärvården jobba strukturerat med äldres läkemedelsintag. Trots olika initiativ för

When the American research field "Fear of Crime" was introduced in Sweden in the 1980s, it was translated "otrygghet", a word with a previously established meaning in Swedish. The meaning of the word "otrygghet" has since then changed significantly in Sweden. From being used to signify economic and materialist unpredictability, "otrygghet" has come to be used almost exclusively in a crime context.
