Vet du att det är stor brist på välutbildade geologer? Geologi handlar om jorden - planeten vi lever på. Geologisk kunskap behövs för att vi ska kunna hantera många av dagens och framtidens stora utmaningar t ex hållbar hushållning med våra begränsade naturresurser och samhällets anpassning till ett förändrat klimat. Geologer arbetar även med grundvatten som är källan till vårt viktigaste livsmede

Osteoarthritis sometimes affects young adults and is often the result of a previous joint injury. Around 50% of those who suffer a knee injury develop osteoarthritis 15-20 years after the injury. If you are between the ages of 25-35 and have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis (OA), you are definitely not alone. It may be a lot more common for OA to affect adults over the age of 45, but even younge

What we know today about osteoarthritis has come a long way since British doctor John Kent Spender first discussed the term "osteoarthritis" in his article in The Lancet in 1886. The joint disease can however be traced back to the age of the dinosaurs and is thereby one of our oldest known diseases. Today, researchers at Lund University, are amongst those driving osteoarthritis research forward. S

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex joint disease as it is often difficult to know the exact cause for why a person develops the disease. What we do know, is that several genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors play a role in increasing the risk of developing OA The more risk factors present, the

Although there is no guaranteed way to avoid being affected by osteoarthritis, there are several external risk factors that can be reduced to prevent developing the joint disease. There is no guaranteed way to avoid being affected by osteoarthritis (OA), however, the fewer risk factors present, the smaller the risk is of being affected by the disease. Risk factors such as genes, biological gender,

A clinical diagnosis where an X-ray often isn’t necessary. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a clinical diagnosis, meaning that a diagnosis should be made primarily through a clinical examination by a doctor or a physiotherapist. As OA can affect a joint long before the disease is visible on an x-ray which is why a diagnosis is based on symptoms, risk factors, and medical history.  Sometimes OA is difficult

A previous joint injury increases the risk of developing osteoarthritis already between the ages of 25-35. Young athletes who have suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear or a meniscus injury may proceed to develop knee osteoarthritis already 15-20 years after their injury. Being diagnosed with osteoarthritis (OA) at an early age is not uncommon and there is a strong link between severe

The articular cartilage consists of cartilage cells (also known as chondrocytes) surrounded by extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix is a network of proteins and sugar molecules and contains a large proportion of water. The water helps to create an impact-absorbing effect in the joint and reduces joint friction. As it is the cartilage cells that produce and maintain the extracellular matr

Osteoarthritis (OA) affects not only the cartilage but the entire joint, i.e., the synovium, the joint capsule, the synovial fluid, the menisci, the ligaments, the muscles, and the bones. The exact order in which the joint is affected is not clear and can most likely differ from case to case. However, the main sign of the disease is cartilage degeneration which impairs joint function. A healthy jo
