Bly. PCB. Bekämpningsmedel och bromerade flamskyddsmedel. Samt plasttillsatser och tungmetaller. Det var vad forskare i Lund hittade när de samlade in döda igelkottar för att undersöka vilka miljöföroreningar som finns i urbana miljöer.

Det är den stora och långvariga studien Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) som publicerar den senaste uppföljningen i tids
