Trots nya behandlingar, som moderna läkemedel och defibrillatorer, är dödligheten fortfarande hög och prognosen sämre än för vissa cancersjukdomar. Nu visar en ny studie ett samband mellan nedsatt kognitiv förmåga och en ökad risk för återinläggning på sjukh

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Att anställa en barnflicka eller au pair har blivit ett vanligare sätt för barnfamiljer att få vardagen att gå ihop och se till att jämställdheten mellan föräldrarna ökar. Införandet av statliga subventioner har bäddat för en ny marknad som tycks leda till att det jämställda föräldraskapet alltmer blir en klassfråga

A new international study shows that ice loss in the Arctic is leading to increased evaporation from Arctic marginal seas, such as the North Sea, and that the increased atmospheric moisture has clear consequences for precipitation in the Northern Hemisphere. It is well known from research that climate change has contributed to a doubling of temperatures in the Arctic compared to the global average

Can dragonflies migrate thousands of miles across the Indian Ocean, from India via the Maldives to Africa, and back again? An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has used models and simulations to find out if the hypothesis could be true. In 2009, marine biologist Charles Anderson put forward a hypothesis after observing globe skimmer dragonflies (Pantala flavescens) on th

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o
