Can cirrhosis of the liver be treated with faeces transplantation?
Researchers from Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital replace sick intestinal bacteria with intestinal bacteria from healthy donors in a treatment intended to help patients with cirrhosis of the liver. The Novo Nordisk Foundation supports the project with just over DKK 13 million.
In Denmark, approximately 15,000 people are diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver. The disease has different causes and is serious due to the complications and frequent deterioration associated with it, as well as the high mortality rate.
Exposure to silica dust at work may increase risk of autoimmune rheumatic diseases
If you are exposed to silica (quartz) dust at work - e.g. from working with concrete and granite - you have a greater risk of certain types of rheumatic disease. This is shown by results from Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital, which have just been published in the
International Journal of Epidemiology.
