DIABETES- och NJURFORSKNING. Efter mer än ett decennium av stiltje har njurforskningen fått ett lyft. Nya läkemedel och biomarkörer gör det möjligt att upptäcka och bromsa sjukdomsförlopp tidigare – något som länge verkade ouppnåeligt. Och det här kommer att påverka personer med diabetes, där njurskada är en allvarlig långtidskomplikation. – Vi står inför en ny era. Det som sker nu liknar det som

An international consensus report on diabetes identifies the potential for diabetes screening, better classification of type 2 diabetes, and biomarkers that can predict cardiovascular disease. The report also highlights that more evidence is needed before it is possible to provide individualised treatment to all patients. The report is based on a large collaboration between 28 universities worldwi

Ett nytt antikroppstest vid covid-19 som utvecklats av forskare vid Lunds universitet har visat hög prestanda i kliniska tester och tillämpning. Antikropparna som mäts är kopplade till det så kallade spikeproteinet (S-protein) hos SARS-CoV-2-viruset, som orsakar covid-19, och testet visar på 15 minuter om en person haft sjukdomen, oavsett om man haft symptom eller inte. Till skillnad från andra se

Vi var väldigt förväntansfulla inför resan till London, man hör ofta att London leder utvecklingen av miljözoner i Europa tack vare sina omfattande, strikta och ambitiösa policyer för att minska utsläpp och förbättra luftkvaliteten. Stadens Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) är en av de mest omfattande i världen och täcker hela stor London sedan augusti 2023. Zonen mäter 1 500 km² och omfattar ca nio

Two universities within 20 km of each other will become a reality next year when the higher education institution in Malmö will receive full university status. What this will mean for Lund is unclear. Will the university in Malmö be a complement or a competitor? In Lund, the feeling is cautiously optimistic.

In a new observational study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden looked at all children listed for heart transplants in the Nordic countries between 1986 and 2023. A total of 597 children were included in the study, 461 of whom received a transplant. The results show that survival rates have increased significantly over time despite the modest volumes in the region – a development that the r

Close proximity between the laboratory and the clinic, an identity that is tied to the division and not only to the different research groups, and lunch conversations about everything between heaven and earth.

In Chichigalpa, Nicaragua, almost half of all male deaths are attributable to a mysterious kidney disease. In El Salvador, it the second most common cause of death among men. In Sri Lanka, it is believed to have caused about 25 000 deaths over the past decade. Working in heat is a common factor, so the problem is expected to increase along with global warming.

We usually associate ageing with a shrinking life span, sickness and death. The difficulty of imagining ourselves as old means that we go to great lengths to avoid planning for later life. Yet researchers argue that we have everything to gain by looking at life as a journey where preparations for the future provide opportunities for living a full life – until it really is over.
