Personer med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar, såsom kognitiva sjukdom och personer med Parkinson, går långsammare, tar kortare steg och har en ökad variabilitet i sin gång än kognitivt friska. Detta är några aspekter som berörs i Magnus Lindh-Rengifos avhandlingsarbete. Att gå är alltså mycket mer komplicerat än man kanske tror. Och det finns flera sätt att bedöma gång inom forskningen. Man kan fokuse

Under pandemins första år var det 19 procent fler bekräftade fall av covid-19 i Ronneby än i grannkommunen Karlshamn. Detta slog forskare vid Lunds universitet fast efter en epidemiologisk studie som slutfördes under hösten 2021. Samtidigt poängterar de att det inte går att påvisa att det är miljökatastrofen i Kallinge som är orsaken bakom. Nu inleds fler studier för att ta reda på mer. Det är sed
