During his more than 50-year career, diabetes researcher Åke Lernmark has made several significant discoveries that have increased knowledge about type 1 diabetes. His research contributes to creating conditions for a national screening programme in Sweden. In Sweden, around 1,000 children and an equal number of adults develop type 1 diabetes each year. The disease has major consequences for the f

People with type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease and dying prematurely due to atherosclerosis. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has now identified molecular mechanisms that may explain the increased risk. Their discovery may lead to more accurate treatments for patients with atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes in the future. People with type 2 diabete

Obesity is a common cause of diabetes, heart disease and early death, but risk differs greatly from one person to the next. In work led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden as part of the Innovative Medicine Initiative project SOPHIA, a pioneering clinical risk prediction algorithm has been developed that splits obesity into 5 separate diagnostic profiles each with contrasting health conseq

In 2025, children within the TEDDY study will submit their final samples at research clinics in Sweden, Finland, Germany and the United States. The international study has provided a lot of new knowledge about type 1 diabetes and how the disease develops. Analysis of the samples will continue with the aim of preventing the disease. Sweden and Finland are the two top countries for incidence rates o

In type 2 diabetes, the body's ability to release insulin is impaired, which leads to high blood glucose levels. Research led from Lund University shows how the levels of a particular protein are elevated in the pancreas of people with type 2 diabetes. By knocking out the gene for the protein IGFBP7, the researchers discovered that insulin secretion was improved. Reduced insulin secretion leads to

Registry-based trials have emerged as a potentially cost-saving study methodology. Early estimates of cost savings, however, conflated the benefits associated with registry utilisation and those associated with other aspects of pragmatic trial designs, which might not all be as broadly applicable. In this study, we sought to build a practical tool that investigators could use across disciplines to

This paper examines social class differences in fertility, using longitudinal micro-level data for a regional sample in Sweden, 1922-2015. Using discrete-time event history models, we estimated the association between social class and parity-specific duration to next birth, adjusting for household income in separate models. Social class was associated with fertility quite independently from income
