Other research areas are conducted in collaboration with researchers from several different universities in Sweden and are being about incidence and prevalence of diabetes in Sweden, complications in people with diabetes born abroad, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Sweden with a focus on intensive care and prevention of future risk of diabetes. Success factors and its importance for people with type 2 diabetes to achieve treatment goals.

Other research areas are to evaluate non-surgical obesity treatment through intervention with low energy diet (LED), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and gastric balloon. But also studies on how group treatment of overweight/obesity is affected by dietary habits, physical activity, health-related quality of life, eating behavior and metabolic health.

An additional research area is about hypersensitive bowel, ie Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), where intervention with CBT and/or diet is examined, but also how diagnosis of these patients are manage in primary care.
