When in life we gain weight can have a significant impact on our health many years later. In a study involving over 600,000 people, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated how changes in weight between the ages of 17 and 60 are linked to the risk of dying from various diseases. The results show a clear pattern: weight gain early in adulthood has the greatest impact. It has long

The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The TEDDY Study has increased our knowledge about what happens prior to the onset of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) and has shown that a stomach infection can trigger coeliac disease. Lund University in Sweden has now received just over SEK 40 million from the American National Institutes of Health (NIH) to con

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. If silence is golden, speech is silver – and singing the worst. Singing doesn’t need to be silenced, however, but at the moment the wisest thing is to sing with social distancing in place. The advice comes from aerosol researchers Jakob Löndahl and Malin Alsved at Lund University. They have studied the amount of parti

A new technology that makes hydrogen from forestry and agricultural residues that are currently burnt is being developed at Lund University. The plan is to efficiently produce a green gas that society needs - while cutting carbon emissions. The researchers' European consortium has received SEK 37 million from the EU Innovation Fund to realise the technology. Renewable hydrogen is no longer conside

Researchers have investigated whether there is a correlation between hip osteoarthritis and alcohol habits in women. Alcohol habits have been studied many times before, and both benefits and drawbacks have been discussed from various health perspectives. According to the researchers, no specific correlation between osteoarthritis and alcohol has been found. However, it has been found that alcohol

A unique long-term study, in which samples were collected from the same population of blue tits over a 30-year period, shows that rising spring temperatures have doubled the incidence of avian malaria in southern Sweden. Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have collected samples every year from hundreds of blue tits in a single population at a local breeding area outside Lund. This has prov

The Pereira research group has previously shown that it is possible to reprogram human skin cells into dendritic cells that strengthen the immune system. However, the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells has been shown to be very low. New studies now indicate that there are ways to increase the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells by over 75%. These findings provide mechanistic insights into h

A lot of research explains which diets may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Much research remains to be done about how our genes respond to the foods we eat. A new study led by researchers at Lund University adds to evidence that variations in the AMY1 gene may affect the way the body breaks down starchy foods. Unhealthy food habits are risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. An

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
