Trots nya behandlingar, som moderna läkemedel och defibrillatorer, är dödligheten fortfarande hög och prognosen sämre än för vissa cancersjukdomar. Nu visar en ny studie ett samband mellan nedsatt kognitiv förmåga och en ökad risk för återinläggning på sjukh

Epigenetiken har gett forskare nya möjligheter att förstå orsakerna bakom typ 2-diabetes och hur sjukdomen utvecklas. I framtiden kan epigenetiska biomarkörer användas för att förutspå sjukdomen och individanpassa behandlingen. Forskare inom diabetes och epigenetik vid Lunds universitet sammanfattar de viktigaste framstegen i en översiktsartikel som publiceras i Nature Reviews Endocrinology. Orsak
