Sofia Carlsson

To all colleagues in epi & biostat @karolinskainst There are still some seats left at our September conference. We have an exciting program. Registration link and program can be found here: ki.se/en/research/re…

The diabetes epidemiology group at KI is looking for a talented post doc to work on early-onset T2D!

@FallTove @Jessica_edstorp @karolinskainst Tack för en fantastisk opponering @FallTove🌟

Compared with childhood-onset type 1 #diabetes, adult-onset type 1 diabetes is less heritable and, therefore, more likely to be affected by environmental factors thelancet.com/journals/landi… #T1D

Our new meta-analysis suggests that consuming moderate amounts of #vitamins C, E, and β-carotene may reduce the risk of type 2 #diabetes. But what about #supplements? Read more in our latest publication in #AdvNutr! @SofiaEJCarlsson advances.nutrition.org/article/S2161-…

Typ 1-diabetes hos vuxna är betydligt mindre ärftligt än hos barn, vilket betyder att miljöfaktorer spelar större roll. Vi behöver identifiera dem och intervenera! Fantastiskt arbete av doktorand @yuxia_wei och stort tack till @RalfKH för metodexpertis lnkd.in/gvq8rbdu

@SofiaEJCarlsson presenting existing evidence on tobacco use and #diabetes risk today at IMM, @karolinskainst. New #tobacco products pose a threat to #publichealth, especially among the youth — and more research on the topic is needed.

@AMLampousi et al. (2023) found that #vitaminE may play a protective role in the development of #LADA, possibly by inhibiting the development of #autoimmunity and preventing #insulin resistance. 🥑🍋 Full text: bit.ly/3FWfX4y #WorldDiabetesDay

A study by @yuxia_wei et al (2022) found that low birth weight and adult #obesity increase the risk of #LADA, using mendelian randomisation to examine the association between birth weight, obesity & the risk of #LADA. Full text: bit.ly/3u6YMe0 #WorldDiabetesDay

In honour of #WorldDiabetesDay, we'll share facts about #LADA and research findings from the group. #LADA is a type of #diabetes with onset in adult years and is characterised by features of both #T1D and #T2D. Learn more about the ESTRID study 👇🏽 ki.se/en/imm/estrid

A new study by @yuxia_wei and @SofiaEJCarlsson showed that adult exposure to smoking appears to increase the risk of adult-onset #type1diabetes, with stronger effects in those with a family history of diabetes. 👇🏽 thelancet.com/journals/lanep… #DiabetesAwarenessMonth #T1D #smoking

A new study in @DiabetescareADA led by @yuxia_wei and @sofiaejcarlsson shows a need for better treatment of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults #LADA to improve glycemic control and reduce complications. news.ki.se/need-for-impro…

Our @EstridStudy team had a great time at #EDEG2023 in the Netherlands where we talked about the complex relationship between lifestyle, environment and #diabetes risk. We learned a ton from other talks and met some wonderful people. @SofiaEJCarlsson @Jessica_edstorp @yuxia_wei👏

Child obesity is linked to increased risk of developing diabetes in adulthood, both autoimmune forms of diabetes and different forms of type 2 diabetes, a study published in @DiabetologiaJnl reports. Research by @yuxia_wei and @sofieaejcarlsson et alt. news.ki.se/childhood-obes…

@MFeychting Men för helsike!

Läkareförbundet har skickat ut en avi med pensionärstaxa 😱

Our Jan cover represents the link between #smoking and #diabetes. In this issue, Edstorp et al provide evidence that smoking increases the risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) @Jessica_eds @sofiaejcarlsson @yuxia_wei link.springer.com/article/10.100…

The bravery and strength of Iran's women in one image ✌🏻

People with more autoimmune Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults #LADA have high risk of CVD and poor glycemic control, targeted intervention is needed!

Congratulations to @Jessica_eds on her presentation about interaction between tobacco use and genetic sucseptibility for The risk of #LADA and #T2D #EASD2022
