Det är dubbelt så vanligt att barn och ungdomar som har insulinpump drabbas av syraförgiftning jämfört med dem som tar insulininjektioner. Syraförgiftning är ett farligt tillstånd men i de allra flesta fall är det inte pumpens fel. Insulinpumpar har flera fördelar. Den främsta, vilket många undersökningar visar, är att de ofta gör det lättare att hålla en bra kontroll på blodsockret.Ännu fler unde

Minst 30 minuter om dagen. Så lyder de flesta goda råd om fysisk aktivitet. Några minuter några gånger i veckan är också bra, förutsatt att träningen är intensiv, säger skotska forskare. Tre minuters spring uppför trappor förbättrar påtagligt kroppens sockeromsättning. - Alla vet att regelbunden träning minskar risken för typ 2 diabetes och hjärtsjukdomar. Problemet med dagens rekommendationer som

Det är tre gånger vanligare att små barn utvecklar antikroppar mot de insulinbildande betacellerna om det förekommer våld i familjen eller om mamma och pappa skiljer sig. En av de frågor den stora svenska undersökningen ABIS söker besvara är om psykisk stress är en riskfaktor för typ 1 diabetes. Om psykiska påfrestningar också stressar betacellerna.Johnny Ludvigsson är barnläkare, professor i pedi

Schistosoma, en illa sedd inälvsmask som plågat människan i hundratusentals år har kanske samtidigt skyddat oss mot typ 1 diabetes. Engelska forskare, som lyckats förebygga diabetes hos möss med extrakt av schistosoma, ger ny näring åt hygienhypotesen. Schistosoma är en sugmask som under flera decennier kan leva och föröka sig i människans mag-tarmkanal eller blodkärl. Masken orsakar sjukdomen snä

En stor svensk tvillingstudie visar att den som insjuknar i diabetes före 65 års ålder löper avsevärt större risk att drabbas av vaskulär demens eller Alzheimers sjukdom. Forskargrupper vid Karolinska institutet i Stockholm, universitetet i Göteborg och University of California i Los Angeles har analyserat data från en stora svensk tvillingstudie för att undersöka sambandet mellan diabetes och ris

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden are investigating a car fuel comprised of a liquid that is converted to hydrogen by a solid catalyst. The used liquid is then emptied from the tank and charged with hydrogen, after which it can be used again in a circular system that is free from greenhouse gas emissions. In two research articles, Lund researchers have demonstrated that the method works, an

International law supports women’s right to breastfeed in the public. However, women report having been subjected to negative responses and judgmental looks when breastfeeding outside the home. This is according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden, based on surveys answered by women living in Sweden, Ireland and Australia. The researchers behind the study say that societies everywhere ne

This is the science behind the unimaginably quick attosecond pulses. The method can “photograph” electrons, giving us new insights into the inner life of atoms, and is the discovery that earned Anne L’Huillier this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics. Electrons move so unbelievably fast that they were long thought to be unobservable. Yet despite the difficulties, many researchers were determined to try

Iryna Tsunovska and Nataliia Kohutyuk from Ukraine are taking home many new insights on how they can contribute to the protection of human rights in their professional roles. They have just completed a training course at Lund University for young policymakers, public servants and civil society workers from selected countries in the Baltic Sea Region/EU Eastern Partnership. Almost two weeks packed

Video games are easy to exploit, and are being used by actors ranging from IS and Hizbollah for recruitment, to Russia, who use it to spread propaganda during the ongoing invasion of Ukraine. This according to a new report from Psychological Defence Research Institute at Lund University in Sweden. Since the 2016 US Presidential election, many democratic governments have paid close attention to how

Using global satellite data, a research team has mapped the tree cover of the world’s protected areas. The study shows that regions with abundant large herbivores in many settings have a more variable tree cover, which is expected to benefit biodiversity overall. Maintaining species-rich and resilient ecosystems is key to preserving biodiversity and mitigating climate change. Here, megafauna – the

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

A man who is exposed to physical pain feels less severe pain if he is subjected to pain by a woman compared with a man, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. In addition, men experience less pain after surgery when asked about it by a woman than by a man. “This was true despite the fact that the men and women involved in the study were dressed the same and used the same script”

For over 20 years, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied the common bluetail damselfly. Females occur in three different colour forms – one with a male-like appearance, something that protects them from mating harassment. In a new study, an international research team found that this genetic colour variation that is shared between several species arose through changes in a speci

Worldwide, coastal river deltas are home to more than half a billion people, supporting fisheries, agriculture, cities, and fertile ecosystems. In a unique study covering 49 deltas globally, researchers from Lund University and Utrecht University have identified the most critical risks to deltas in the future. The research shows that deltas face multiple risks, and that population growth and poor

The COP climate meetings are organised in a way that benefits richer and larger countries at the expense of smaller and poorer countries, according to a new study from Lund University and the University of Leeds. The study also labels the participating countries as either Radicals, Opportunists, Hypocrites or Evaders. Every year, the UN organises its global climate change Conference of the Parties

Breath-holding spells are common in young children and are benign. Yet children often undergo unnecessary diagnostic interventions when seeking medical care. This is because there are no national or international guidelines on how to assess children in these cases. A team of researchers at Lund University, Sweden has now proposed guidelines to reduce the number of emergency and unplanned medical v
