Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) can act as surfactants and have been suggested to be capable of affecting gut mucosa integrity, a possible factor in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). So far, only PFOA has been shown to have a positive association with ulcerative colitis. The present study aimed to investigate the association of PFAS and clinically diagnosed IBD in the Ronneby

Clinical practice improvements based on quality-register data are influenced by multiple factors. Although there is agreement that information from quality registers is valuable for quality improvement, practical ways of organising register use have been notoriously difficult to realise. The present study sought to investigate the mechanisms that lead various clinicians to use quality registers fo

Ny studie vid LU: Vid enheten för Arbets- och miljömedicin, Lunds universitet, bedrivs forskning bla kring hur miljöfaktorer och levnadsvillkor påverkar hälsa och sjukdom. Vi avser att i en serie registerstudier undersöka hur hälsan ser ut hos de föräldrar vars barn kommit till via assisterad befruktning (tex provrörsbefruktning, IVF), både innan och efter eventuella behandlingar.

A powerful neutron source, the European Spallation Source (ESS), is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden (~90 000 inhabitants). Levels of tritium (3H) in urine were estimated in members of the public in Lund and employees at the ESS using liquid scintillation counting, to obtain baseline levels before the start of operation of the ESS.

Our results suggest that genetic predisposition for CAD can predict hospitalization burden and mortality, especially due to cardiovascular causes, independently of traditional risk factors. As the risk conferred by the GRS is partially modifiable, our results may help to reduce societal costs, individual suffering and prolong life. New publication in IJC Heart & Vasculature

Only one out of ten elderly, is dissatisfied with the outcome of LDH surgery. Age, preoperative duration of leg pain, preoperative SF 36 score, and for satisfaction also dominance of back over leg pain, are in elderly factors associated to good and poor subjective outcome after LDH surgery.

Den 24/2 2020 lanseras LU:s system för datahanteringsplaner, DMP Roadmap. Inloggning sker med LUCAT-id och systemet finns på https://dmp.research.lu.se. Planerna lagras på en server inom LU och rekommendationen är att de inte ska göras publika. De ska däremot bevaras och kan eventuellt arkiveras direkt i systemet.

For a long time the attention given to the hip fracture patient group was minor and without any certain consideration to their frailty. To improve the care for these patients Skane University Hospital in Lund has during the past 19 years worked actively with developing the care.

The authors assessed the effect of incorporating the timing of cancer diagnosis events into the assessment of familial risks of breast cancer in first‐degree and second‐degree relatives in a nationwide cohort study of 5,099,172 women (follow‐up was between 1958‐2015). Family history was assessed using 3 approaches: 1) as a static variable (ever having a relative with breast cancer); 2) as accumula
