En liten undersökning har funnit att sammansättningen av tarmens bakterier hos vissa barn förändras ungefär ett år innan de insjuknar i typ 1 diabetes. Fyndet kan kanske bli ett framtida diagnostiskt test för sjukdomen. Det kan kanske ge en förklaring till varför barnen insjuknar. Det kan kanske bli en framtida beha

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,

Enligt World Happiness report brukar Finland rankas som det lyckligaste landet i världen. Undersökningen baseras på en enkel fråga om lycka, som ställs till människor runt om i världen. En ny studie ledd av Lunds universitet tyder dock på att frågans formulering får människor att tänka mer på makt och rikedom.Att använda samma fråga för att mäta lycka inom olika kulturer över tid och dessutom jämf

Alzheimers sjukdom kännetecknas av onormal spridning och ansamling av proteinet tau i hjärnan. En internationell studie visar nu hur tau sprids enligt fyra distinkta mönster som leder till olika symtom med olika prognoser för de drabbade individerna. Studien publiceras i Nature Medicine. – Till skillnad mot hur vi hittills tolkat spridningen av tau i hjärnan, visar fynden från denna studie att tau

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Do you leave work full of energy and excited about what the rest of the day has to offer? If not – maybe it is worth trying to improve recovery during the working day.  Lina Ejlertsson's thesis is about recovery of staff in one of the most stressful work environments – healthcare centres. She says we have a certain am

Two NanoLundians attended the 74th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting this summer in Bayern, Germany, by the beautiful Bodensee. PhD student Julia Valderas and Postdoctoral fellow Ajeet Kumar share their trip experiences with us. The Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings are internationally renowned conferences, attended annually by about 30–40 Nobel Laureates and some of the most promising young scientists f

In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

New blood tests for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease are making early diagnosis increasingly feasible. However, the fact that the markers being measured change long before any symptoms develop represents a challenge. Research led by Lund University in Sweden shows that a previously unused blood marker, when combined with those markers already in use, can significantly reduce the risk of misleading d

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed an algorithm that combines data from a simple blood test and brief memory tests, to predict with great accuracy who will develop Alzheimer's disease in the future. The findings are published in Nature Medicine. Approximately 20-30% of patients with Alzheimer's di

Lewy body disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease. A research group from Lund University has now shown that the disease can be detected before symptoms appear, using a spinal fluid test. The studies are published in Nature Medicine, where the researchers also demonstrate that reduced sense of smell is strongly linked to Lewy body disease even before ot

More than half of teenage girls experienced heavy bleeding and 40 per cent had an iron deficiency. The research, led from Lund University in Sweden, also shows that young teenage girls who experience heavy menstrual bleeding – and are therefore at greater risk of iron deficiency – can be identified using a simple questionnaire. As many as half of the teenage girls in the study published in PLOS On

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control. In his research, Mårten Lager has developed use

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. At the time of the atmospheric nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s, the level of carbon-14 in the atmosphere increased dramatically. Now researchers from Lund University have developed a method for measuring the carbon-14 content in atherosclerotic plaques in patients. The measurements reveal how old and da
