Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Myeloid neoplasms (MNs) with germline predisposition have recently been recognized as novel entities in the latest World Health Organization (WHO) classification for MNs. Individuals with MNs due to germline predisposition exhibit increased risk for the development of MNs, mainly acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Setting the diagnosis of MN with germline predisposition is of crucial clinical significance since it may tailor therapy, dictate the selection of donor for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), determine the conditioning regimen, enable relevant prophylactic measures and early intervention or contribute to avoid unnecessary or even harmful medication. Finally, it allows for genetic counseling and follow-up of at-risk family members. Identification of these patients in the clinical setting is challenging, as there is no consensus due to lack of evidence regarding the criteria defining the patients who should be tested for these conditions. In addition, even in cases with a strong suspicion of a MN with germline predisposition, no standard diagnostic algorithm is available. We present the first version of the Nordic recommendations for diagnostics, surveillance and management including considerations for allo-HSCT for patients and carriers of a germline mutation predisposing to the development of MNs.

Organisering kring hot och risk
- 2007
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Hur hanteras blödarfeberviruset Marburg, hur förbereder man sig för ett eventuellt utbrott av fågelinfluensan, hur kalkylerar man hälsorisker i Europa och Sverige och hur hanterar man risk i samband med äventyrsturism? Vad har stormen Gudrun lärt oss om att hantera akuta situationer och hur skapar katastrofer som Tjörnbron handlingsföreträde i form av särskilda förutsättningar för organisering? Detta är några exempel på studier inkluderade i Organisering kring hot och risk. Boken tittar även närmare på hur man hanterar effekter av datorkriser, hur konst och vad betraktaren bedömer som hot kan bidra till skapande av handlingsnät samt hur tv-serien Kommissionen belyser det svenska beredningsarbetet. Författarna visar att karaktären av organisering kring hot och risk är beroende av tidpunkten: innan, under eller efter en katastrof eller en hotfull händelse. Beredningsarbetet består av resursmobilisering, att skissa planer, att bygga upp strukturer samt bygga eller mobilisera nätverk. När katastrofen väl inträffar visar det sig dock att även de bästa planer inte alltid fungerar som man vill och responsen på de faktiska händelserna består av improvisation samt av att bygga handlingskedjor och handlingsnät. Det finns inget recept på hur man skall organisera kring hot och risk men boken har identifierat ett återkommande problem: varje misslyckande verkar leda till slutsatsen att det behövs mer av planer och strukturer. Författarna hävdar motsatsen. Bokens budskap är att istället för att skapa oändliga planer och strukturer skall man öva lämpliga skickligheter och improvisationsförmåga. Boken vänder sig till studerande inom organisationsteori respektive riskhantering på universitet och högskola samt yrkesverksamma inom krisberedskap och riskhantering.

Health and quality of life in an aging population - Food and beyond
- 2016

Ingår i: Food Quality and Preference. - : Elsevier BV. - 0950-3293 .- 1873-6343. ; 47, s. 166-170

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In Europe the percentage of citizens aged 65 and over is increasing at an unprecedented rate, and is expected to account for over 30% of the population by 2050. Coupled with an increase in life expectancy, this massive demographic change calls for a major effort to ensure quality of life in our older population. A thorough understanding of the elderly as food consumers, their nutritional needs, their food perception and preferences is increasingly needed.The role of food in healthy aging was a prominent theme at the 6th European Conference on Sensory and Consumer Research, which had quality of life across the life span as a focal point. This short paper is based on a workshop held at the EuroSense meeting, focusing on research from sensory and consumer scientists. The workshop featured contributions focusing on food-related perception, needs and behavior of the elderly, and aimed at demonstrating the relevance of sensory and consumer scientists in promoting food-related well-being in an aging population. The workshop contributions are here reviewed and summarized three main themes: nutritional needs, food perception and aging, and behavioral drivers of food consumption.

Exploring the Performativity Turn in Management Studies
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- One of the contemporary “turns” in management studies is the “performativity” turn. In this paper, we present a genealogy of the concept of performativity as it has been used in management and organization studies (MOS). Starting with the work of Austin, Bateson, Goffman and Lyotard, we move on to more recent debates surrounding the use of the concept by Butler and the STS researchers Callon, Latour and Law, as well as how their ideas have been further translated within MOS. The focus is on how the concept is defined and on the areas of study where performativity has been used. Taken together, the approach to performativity employed has implications for how the concept is understood and translated. Finally, we discuss the particular ontological position of the performative perspective, and its methodological consequences.

Organizational effects on e-business in companies
- 2002
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The end of the 1990s witnessed a firm establishment of IT, Internet and various forms of e-commerce in business-to-business trade. The new technology is commonly presented as a new, revolutionary way of doing business. In our study we examine this image in practice, describing how a fashionable idea, in this case Internet-based e-commerce, meets local practices at Swedish Technology Corporation (S-Tech). The circulation of the idea is in the hands of many people who can act in many different ways. As a consequence, the idea is continuously changed, often undergoing creative transformations. The specific event under study is the implementation of the e-commerce system called 7Summits at S-Tech's purchase division. The new system is expected to produce drastic changes in the purchasing process as such. As the implementation goes on, several changes of the original plan of the process and of the study itself take place. The implementation of 7Summits is going to take more time than originally planned, and we will continue to follow this process. It has also become clear that the study needs to be expanded beyond S-Tech - to suppliers and contractors, but also to other companies belonging to the holding company A-Tech, since S-Tech cooperates with these in the development of 7Summits. The first insights confirmed also the necessity of applying a gender perspective to study how work tasks, positions and professions in this rather masculine context are changed (or not) by the implementation of e-commerce.

When the good times are over: Professionals meet new technology

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Information and communication technologies play a key role in contemporary organizations. Supported by a longitudinal study of changes in purchasing practices, owing to the implementation of an e-business system at a large, global corporation, this article shows the interplay between the technology and the role of the users. We argue that the introduction of the e-business system increased the hierarchy and bureaucracy but also that the purchasers' professional identities and established work procedures were threatened by the technology being used. The results indicate how a technological artifact is by no means detached from the broader reformulating of managerial procedures and practices, instead reflecting and embodying some of the managerial virtues of predictability and hierarchy. Since technology is playing an increasingly key role in most industries and domains, it is also suggested that the intersection between technology and professions be examined in more detail.
