An international team of researchers has investigated whether oral insulin can prevent early signs of type 1 diabetes and clinical diagnosis in children with an increased risk of developing the disease. Although treatment with oral insulin could not prevent development of diabetes-related autoantibodies, oral insulin delayed the rate of disease progression in children who developed such autoantibo

Lotta Gränse, ophthalmologist and researcher Lund University and Skåne University Hospital has demonstrated that eye drops containing cortisone can prevent the development of the very serious eye disease ROP in infants. This has revolutionised treatment and means that the majority of children in Sweden’s Southern Healthcare Region with severe ROP do not need conventional treatment under anaesthesi

När covid-19-pandemin svepte över världen 2020 blev mRNA-vaccinerna räddningen för många – men i bakgrunden fanns en annan, mindre känd hjälte: lipidnanopartikeln. Utan dessa små ”fettdroppar” hade vaccinet aldrig kunnat levereras in i kroppens celler. Och faktum är att den lär få fler uppdrag framöver. Det kan vara den som löser leverans av gensaxen och de nya genterapierna in i kroppen. När värl

Stadsplanerare har det inte helt lätt. Städer måste byggas tätare eftersom omgivande jordbruksmark och natur måste skyddas - samtidigt som hälsokraven är högt ställda. Under fem år har forskare närstuderat förtätningsplaner i tre städer och hittat nycklar till hur den svåra ekvationen kan lösas. Lösningen är i korthet att fokusera på invånarnas välmående samt att inte bara följa befintliga standar

The strange space object ‘Oumuamua took the scientific community by storm nine years ago. In the wake of its passage close to our planet, many questions have been raised. Recently, an international initiative was launched to search for more visitors from other solar systems.

It is not easy to be an urban planner. Cities must be built more densely because surrounding agricultural land and nature must be protected – while at the same time health requirements are high. Over a period of five years researchers at Lund University in Sweden, have closely studied densification plans in three cities and found keys to solving this difficult equation. In short, the solution is t
