Altruism – to give unselfishly so that society will function by sharing your blood is a linchpin of healthcare. At least that is the case in Sweden. In many other countries, voluntary, unpaid blood donations are not the norm. World Blood Donor Day focuses on the important role of blood d

Perennial crops have the potential to reduce the need for ploughing and pesticides, which in turn can lead to reduced soil degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. Recently, a unique research infrastructure that has the potential to transform agriculture was inaugurated by the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science and LUCSUS, in collaboration with SLU Alnarp. The new facility, fu

Psykiska och kognitiva symtom kommer tidigt vid Huntingtons sjukdom och är ofta de svåraste symtomen i sjukdomen, vittnar berörda. Ändå har forskningen, i sin jakt på behandling, främst fokuserat på sjukdomens rörelsestörningar, ett senare symtom. Ny forskning visar att känslohjärnan påverkas tidigare i sjukdomsförloppet och därför bör ges mer fokus vid utvecklingen av nya behandlingar. Artikeln p

Mer än varannan tonårsflicka blödde rikligt och 40 procent hade järnbrist. Forskningen som är ledd från Lunds universitet visar även att ett enkelt formulär kan användas för att upptäcka unga tonårsflickor med riklig mens som löper ökad risk. Så många som hälften av tonårsflickorna i studien som publiceras i PLOS One hade rikliga menstruationer, och fyra av tio hade järnbrist. Studien genomfördes

De nya blodproven för att diagnostisera Alzheimers sjukdom ger allt bättre möjligheter till tidig diagnos, men en utmaning är att markörerna som mäts förändras långt innan symtom utvecklas. Forskning ledd från Lunds universitet visar nu att en tidigare inte använd blodmarkör kan, när den kombineras med dagens blodmarkörer, betydligt minska risken för att personer får missvisande besked om sjukdom.
