- Hur elever i år 2 uppfattar och använder tallinjen som redskap har undersökts i en Learning study. För att kunna hantera tallinjen som redskap i matematiskt tänkande behöver eleverna, i enlighet med ett variationsteoretiskt sätt att se på lärande, urskilja vad som är specifikt för denna representationsform av talsystemet. Kritiska aspekter i andra studier med liknande lärandeobjekt har beaktats vid utformandet av förtest i denna studie. Dessa aspekter har också kompletterat och fördjupat analysen av resultaten.Studiens resultat överensstämmer i stora delar med vad som framkommit i andra Learning study. Det pekar på vikten av att elever har förståelse för att tallinjen kan ha olika omfång, sambandet mellan värde och avstånd, att det behövs två referenspunkter för att kunna placera ett tredje tal, alltså bestämma tallinjens skala, samt hur del och helhet förhåller sig till varandra. Resultaten diskuteras i förhållande till tidigare Learning study samt i relation till vad vi ser som intressant ur ett undervisningsperspektiv. Studien har genomförts av matematiklärare vid Sjöstadsskolan i Stockholm, som en del i ett FoU-projekt i samarbete mellan Stockholms stad och Stockholms universitet.

Birth Characteristics’ Impacton Future Reproduction and Morbidity Among Twins an dSingletons
- 2015
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Globally, in both developed and developing countries, the twinning rates have increased since the early 70’s. A large proportion of twins are born preterm and/or small-for-gestational-age (SGA) and/or with a low birth weight. Several studies have been performed on the long-term effect of these non-optimal birth characteristics on future reproductive performance and morbidity. Yet, most studies exclude twins or higher order pregnancies and thus the findings are based on singleton pregnancies only.The aim of the present thesis was therefore to investigate the impact of non-optimal birth characteristics in terms of preterm birth, small-for-gestational age, and low birth weight, on the reproductive pattern and morbidity among twins and singletons Furthermore, the present thesis attempted to establish whether twins and singletons were affected in the same manner.The studies included in this thesis are prospective population-based register studies, including all men and women, alive and living in Sweden at age 13, who were born between 1973 and 1983 (1,000,037 singletons and 16,561 twins) for the first three studies with follow-up till the end of 2006 and 2009. The last study included all men and women, alive and living in Sweden at age 13, who were born between 1973 and 1993 (2,051,479 singletons and 39,726 twins) with follow-up till the end of 2012.In general, twins were found less likely to reproduce between 13 and 33 years of age compared with singletons. Stratifying data by different birth characteristics, it was found that twins had a lower likelihood of reproducing on several different birth characteristics (appropriate-for-gestational-age, normal birth weight, low birth weight, term birth, preterm birth). However, twins born very preterm had an increased likelihood of reproducing compared with singletons born very preterm.Not taking birth characteristics into account, twinning was associated with a higher degree of hospitalization. However, accounting for the diverging birth characteristics this difference diminished and for some diagnoses the relationship was reversed such that twins were actually less likely to be hospitalized compared with singletons.In terms of the heritability of non-optimal birth characteristics singleton mothers born preterm were more predisposed to give birth to a child that was preterm while singleton mothers born SGA more often gave birth to a child either born preterm or SGA. Among twins this heritability was not as evident. The only difference observed was among twin mothers born SGA who were more likely to give birth to a child born SGA.In the extended cohort comprising those born between 1973 and 1993, male and female twins were found to be less likely to become parents compared with singletons. No difference was found among women in terms of having a second child, while male twins were more likely to have a second child compared with male singletons. It was also found that the likelihood of becoming a first-time parent and second-time parent was positively associated with the number of siblings.

- Protein histidine phosphorylation in eukaryotes has beensparsely studied compared to protein serine/threonine andtyrosine phosphorylation. In an attempt to rectify this byprobing porcine liver cytosol with the phosphohistidinecontainingpeptide succinyl-Ala-His(P)-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide(phosphopeptide I), we observed a phosphataseactivity that was insensitive towards okadaic acid andEDTA. This suggested the existence of a phosphohistidinephosphatase different from protein phosphatase 1, 2Aand 2C. A 1000-fold purification to apparent homogeneitygave a 14-kDa phosphatase with a specific activity of 3lmolÆmin)1Æmg)1 at pH 7.5 with 7 lM phosphopeptide Ias substrate. Partial amino-acid sequence determination ofthe purified porcine enzyme by MS revealed similaritywith a human sequence representing a human chromosome9 gene of hitherto unknown function. Molecularcloning from a human embryonic kidney cell cDNAlibraryfollowed by expression and purification, yielded aprotein with a molecular mass of 13 700 Da, and anEDTA-insensitive phosphohistidine phosphatase activityof 9 lmolÆmin)1Æmg)1 towards phosphopeptide I. Nodetectable activity was obtained towards a set of phosphoserine-,phosphothreonine-, and phosphotyrosine peptides.Northern blot analysis indicated that the humanphosphohistidine phosphatase mRNA was present preferentiallyin heart and skeletal muscle. These resultsprovide a new tool for studying eukaryotic histidinephosphorylation/dephosphorylation.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Slow progression of labor is a common obstetrical problem with multiple associated complications. Tafoxiparin is a depolymerized form of heparin with a molecular structure that eliminates the anticoagulant effects of heparin. We report on 2 phase II clinical studies of tafoxiparin in primiparas. Study 1 was an exploratory, first-in-pregnant-women study and study 2 was a dose-finding study. Objective: Study 1 was performed to explore the effects on labor time of subcutaneous administration of tafoxiparin before onset of labor. Study 2 was performed to test the hypothesis that intravenous treatment with tafoxiparin reduces the risk for prolonged labor after spontaneous labor onset in situations requiring oxytocin stimulation because of dystocia. Study Design: Both studies were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled. Participants were healthy, nulliparous females aged 18 to 45 years with a normal singleton pregnancy and gestational age confirmed by ultrasound. The primary endpoints were time from onset of established labor (cervical dilation of 4 cm) until delivery (study 1) and time from start of study treatment infusion until delivery (study 2). In study 1, patients at 38 to 40 weeks of gestation received 60 mg tafoxiparin or placebo daily as 0.4 mL subcutaneous injections until labor onset (maximum 28 days). In study 2, patients experiencing slow progression of labor, a prolonged latent phase, or labor arrest received a placebo or 1 of 3 short-term tafoxiparin regimens (initial bolus 7, 21, or 35 mg followed by continuous infusion at 5, 15, or 25 mg/hour until delivery; maximum duration, 36 hours) in conjunction with oxytocin. Results: The number of participants randomized in study 1 was 263, and 361 were randomized in study 2. There were no statistically significant differences in the primary endpoints between those receiving tafoxiparin and those receiving the placebo in both studies. However, in study 1, the risk for having a labor time exceeding 12 hours was significantly reduced by tafoxiparin (tafoxiparin 6/114 [5%] vs placebo 18/101 [18%]; P=.0045). Post hoc analyses showed that women who underwent labor induction had a median (range) labor time of 4.44 (1.2–8.5) hours with tafoxiparin and 7.03 (1.5–14.3) hours with the placebo (P=.0041) and that co-administration of tafoxiparin potentiates the effect of oxytocin and facilitates a shorter labor time among women with a labor time exceeding 6 to 8 hours (P=.016). Among women induced into labor, tafoxiparin had a positive effect on cervical ripening in 11 of 13 cases (85%) compared with 3 of 13 participants (23%) who received the placebo (P=.004). For women requiring oxytocin because of slow progression of labor, the corresponding results were 34 of 51 participants (66%) vs 16 of 40 participants (40%) (P=.004). In study 2, tafoxiparin had no positive effects on the secondary endpoints when compared with the placebo. Except for injection-site reactions in study 1, adverse events were no more common for tafoxiparin than for the placebo among either mothers or infants. There were few serious or treatment-related adverse events. Conclusion: Subcutaneous treatment with tafoxiparin before labor onset (study 1) may be effective in reducing the labor time among women undergoing labor induction and among those requiring oxytocin for slow progression of labor. Moreover, tafoxiparin may have a positive effect on cervical ripening. Short-term, intravenous treatment with tafoxiparin as an adjunct to oxytocin in patients with labor arrest (study 2) did not affect labor time or other endpoints. Both studies suggest that tafoxiparin has a favorable safety profile in mothers and their infants.

En båge genom tiden - ritualer kring en göteborgshistoria. Om Flickläroverket i Artisten
- 2024

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- 1929 bildades Göteborgs första Högre allmänna läroverk för Flickor – Flickläroverket som fick en byggnad 1935 i det kulturella centrumet, Götaplatsen. Efter några år som Kjellbergska gymnasiet, sedan Komvux, blev byggnaden del av Artisten, Högskolan för scen och musik, HSM 1992. Byggnaden har burit kvinnors utbildning, konst och kultur över många generationer, en minneskedja som nu är bruten. Boken - En båge genom tiden – ritualer kring en göteborgshistoria – en konst- och forskningsantologi – är resultatet av de offentliga minnesdagar där de deltagande drygt 200 kvinnorna (70– 97 år) som varit elever på Flickläroverket, studenter vid Artisten, konstnärer och forskare – bidrog till och deltog i gestaltande ritualer, minnesrum, dans, utställningar och samtal som gav liv åt en utbildningskultur och konst som berört samhället i generationer. I boken bidrar ett 20-tal Göteborgsbaserade konstnärer och forskare med olika perspektiv på byggnadens poetiska, sociala och konstnärliga dimensioner. Bland annat beskrivs återskapandet av Bågdansen, som dansades varje år vid Lucia mellan 1934-1972. Här beskrivs även den medie-debatt som ledde till räddningen av målningen Dansen av Nils Nilsson från 1935 och hur nedtagningen gick till. Tillsammans med ett rikt foto- och bildmaterial, filmdokumentationer och ett ljudarkiv utgör boken ett tidsdokument där konst fungerar som minnesbärare över tid och rum.
