En internationell forskargrupp har gjort den största genetiska studien någonsin om artros – med data från nästan två miljoner människor. De hittade 962 genetiska kopplingar, varav över 500 är helt nya. Detta ger en mycket mer detaljerad bild av sjukdomens biologiska grund. Vad betyder det? Av de 962 genetiska kopplingarna har forskarna identifierat 700 gener som verkar påverka risken för artros.Ci

Production for the textile and fashion industry can, for many countries, represent a first step out of poverty. But what does this mean for those who work in the sector, and what happens when even poorer countries begin to compete by paying even lower wages for the seamstresses in the factories?

For up to 40 years, nearly 800,000 people from Sweden, Norway and Austria have been tracked based on how their BMI and metabolic health – that is, their blood pressure, blood glucose levels and blood fats - affect the risk of suffering from obesity-related cancers. The study shows that those who are metabolically unhealthy are at a higher risk of certain forms of cancer, regardless of their body w
