Precision medicine seeks to reduce errors and improve accuracy in medical and health recommendations, but better evidence is needed to fulfil its potential. An international consortium led by Paul Franks at Lund University presents new guidelines that may increase the clinical relevance of precision medicine research. An international consensus report on precision medicine that was published in Na

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

Är det ett tidigt tecken på stress att du inte kan njuta av musik? Finns det sammanhang där buller är bra? Vad skiljer Djungellekan i Helsingborg från en vanlig lekplats? Och vad menas med en ljudmiljö á la carte? Tre forskare och en ljudkreatör samlades för att prata hållbara ljudmiljöer under Hållbarhetsveckan.

Projektets huvudsyfte är att utreda vilken effekt olika sociala aktiviteter, som körsång och vanlig kursverksamhet, har på rösthälsa och allmänt välbefinnande för äldre vuxna. Det är vanligt att rösten försämras och blir svagare med stigande ålder, och vi vill ta reda på om körsång och andra sociala aktiviteter kan motverka detta. Dessutom vill vi undersöka om en simulerad visuell miljö (virtual r
