An ancient marine lizard in remarkable condition has been uncovered by a Lund University-led research team in Jordan. Its fish-like tail fin tells an evolutionary story about the species previously unknown to scientists. One of history’s most fearsome predators, the mosasaur Prognathodon, lived during the Cretaceous Period some 70 million years ago. The most spectacular aspect of the fossil find i

Många lider av korta men upprepade andningsuppehåll under sömnen, så kallad obstruktiv sömnapné. Övervikt och typ 2-diabetes är de mest kända riskfaktorerna. Nu har forskare undersökt hur det är bland normalviktiga typ 1-diabetiker. Området har varit relativt outforskat. Resultaten visar att också bland typ 1-diabetiker är obstruktiv sömnapné vanligt och vanligare än bland befolkningen i stort. Ol

Patienter med diabetes typ 2 behandlas ofta med blodförtunnande läkemedel för att förebygga hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar. Men diabetespatienter som inte haft stroke, hjärtinfarkt eller andra hjärtsjukdomar blir inte hjälpta av blodförtunnande läkemedel. Det visar en studie av forskare vid Sahlgrenska akademin. yp 2 diabetiker löper mer än dubbelt så stor risk för hjärt- och kärlsjukdom jämfört med de

Diabetesrelaterade fotsår är en vanlig och allvarlig komplikation till diabetes. Orsaken till fotsår är mångfasetterad och inkluderar bland annat nervskador och försämrad funktion i stora och små blodkärl. Vid förekomst av högt blodsocker fungerar immunförsvaret sämre och problematiska infektioner är vanligare vid diabetes. Sårläkning försämras vid låg vävnadskoncentration av syrgas, ett tillstånd

En ny undersökning ger starkt stöd åt rådet till diabeteskvinnor som planerar att skaffa barn att de ska hårdsatsa på ett så normalt blodsocker som möjligt redan innan de blir gravida. Risken att barnet föds missbildat ökar markant ju högre blodsockret är.

Mat med mycket fibrer förbättrar både blodsockerkontroll och blodfettsbalans men den kan ha en nackdel – fibrerna minskar kroppens förmåga att absorbera kalcium ur födan vilket är viktigt för skelettet. - Vi rekommenderar att patienter, till exempel med typ 2 diabetes, som gör som de ska och äter mycket fibrer att ta upp frågan om att öka kalciumintaget med sin läkare. Man ska inte göra det på ege

Researchers have shown for the first time that an animal uses different directional sensors to achieve the highest possible navigational precision in different conditions. When the sun is high, dung beetles navigate using the wind. The discovery of the dung beetles’ wind compass and how it complements the sun compass was made by an international research team comprising biologists from Sweden and

The EAT-Lancet diet is a framework designed to promote environmental sustainability while also preventing common diseases such as type 2 diabetes. How do we know if the diet actually works? An international research team studied seven dietary scores and found that two of them were particularly good at evaluating adherence to the diet. Reliable diet scores are important when developing sustainable

The archaeology team gets up with the sun at five o’clock each morning. They then work for seven hours under the burning sun in the middle of nowhere in Egypt’s desert landscape among venomous scorpions and lizards. They only stop work for lunch and a typical Egyptian chai tea break. “The most common danger is sunstroke – you cannot get away from the sun”, says Maria Nilsson. “But also workplace a

En stor internationell studie (BLING III) ska undersöka bästa sättet att ge en viss antibiotika till svårt infektionssjuka i intensivvården. Målet är att få evidens för optimerad antibiotikabehandling och därigenom minska dödstalen till följd av sepsis. Totalt ska studien omfatta 7000 patienter och nu har de första patienterna inkluderats i den svenska delen av studien. – I sitt upplägg är det en
