Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) can cause more serious liver conditions, such as liver failure. A new study, led by Lund University in Sweden, presents new data that may lead to better disease management and prevention in the future. The international research team identified an altered expression of specific genes in samples from individuals with obesity, MASLD an

AI-stödd screening är ett säkert alternativ till dagens traditionella dubbelavläsning av radiologer och kan minska arbetsbördan för en hårt belastad profession. Det visar nu en prospektiv, randomiserad studie som undersökt hur säkert det är att använda AI i mammografiscreening. Studien som letts av forskare från Lunds universitet publiceras i The Lancet Oncology. Varje år kallas cirka en miljon kv

The Middle East and North African region lose about $13 billion a year because of increasing sand and dust storms. By combining learnings from artificial intelligence and 3000-year-old sustainable methods, researchers might be on the way to finding out how to mitigate the damages. Sand and dust storms cause damage to crops, human and animal health, buildings and infrastructure, and force shutdowns

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A small proportion of women who receive anti-estrogen treatment after breast cancer surgery have worse outcomes. This is associated with mutations in the estrogen receptor gene, according to a study from Lund University now published in JNCI Cancer Spectrum.   “If our results are confirmed in further studies, it would

Research has shown that only one out of three individuals with osteoarthritis receives appropriate care. Doctoral candidate Simone Battista aims to explore why many osteoarthritis patients are not offered the right treatment. Simultaneously, he seeks to understand how aware individuals with osteoarthritis are of available treatments to alleviate osteoarthritis symptoms. This study is a collaborati

I slutet av oktober samlades omkring 45 lärare från hela den naturvetenskapliga fakulteten till en gemensam inspirationsdag på LINXS i Science Village vilket var den första i sitt slag. Syftet var att ge nya perspektiv på undervisning, väcka inspiration och bjuda in till erfarenhetsutbyte mellan kollegor.– Det viktigaste för mig var att vi faktiskt träffades, säger Charlotta Turner, vicedekan för

Antikroppar är kroppens superhjältar som känner igen och röjer undan sjukdomsframkallande ämnen. Genom att kombinera delar från antikroppar har forskare vid Lunds universitet designat en hybridantikropp som bättre stimulerar immunförsvaret mot både SARS-CoV-2-virus och streptokockbakterier. –  Hybridantikroppen är betydligt bättre än kroppens egna antikroppar på att bekämpa såväl streptokocker som

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

A team of researchers led by Daniel E. Coral and Paul W. Franks at LUDC have used human genetics to do a phenome-wide analysis of the degree of genetic dissimilarity between obesity and type 2 diabetes. Together with colleagues from Dundee and Oxford universities in the UK and the Vanderbilt Genetics Institute in the US, the team recently published their findings in the journal Nature Metabolism.

Forests have long been seen as a sink for greenhouse gases. Research conducted by scientists from University of Gothenburg has shown that over a forest rotation of 80 years, forest production on drained peat soil is a large source of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.

Over the last 40 years, the majority of the world’s lakes have changed colour, according to a new study. The research team analysed 32 million satellite observations from over 67,000 lakes. Major changes in the lake ecosystems are thought to be the cause. Lakes are critical components of Earth’s ecosystem. They provide habitats for aquatic and terrestrial species, support biodiversity and help mai

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC.
