Aktivism : En antologi om arbete för social och politisk förändring
- 2022
-
Editorial collection (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Aktivism kan vara en livsstil, ett nödvändigt ont, en professionell praktik, en hoppfull intervention och en effekt av att bara befinna sig i världen. Men vad vill det säga att arbeta för social förändring i det senmoderna och (post) pandemiskasamhället? Vilka uttryck kan aktivism ta sig, vilka politiska utmaningar är mest akuta att adressera och hur ser relationer mellan akademiskt och aktivistiskt arbete ut? I denna antologi om aktivism och arbete för förändring i olika kontexter och på olika arenor presenterar vi nydanande forskning om aktivism och dess samhälleliga betydelser. Antologin innehåller såväl beskrivningar av nutida aktivistiska praktiker som reflektioner över vad aktivism kan innebära i termer av politisk och social förändring. Vår förhoppning är att bokens bidrag ska ge läsareunderlag för att se nya sammanhang mellan olika aktivistiska dagordningar och uttryck inom och utanför akademin och vidga förståelser av vad aktivism är och kan vara.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- PurposeNo consensus exists whether to administer prophylactic antibiotics in conjunction with manual placenta removal. This study aimed to investigate the postpartum risk of a new prescription of antibiotic treatment, a possible indirect variable for infection, after manual placenta removal.MethodsObstetric data were merged with data from the Anti-Infection Tool (Swedish antibiotic registry). All vaginal deliveries (n = 13 877) at Helsingborg Hospital, Helsingborg, Sweden, from January 1st, 2014 until June 13th, 2019 were included. Diagnosis codes for infection can be lacking, while the Anti-Infection Tool is complete as it is unavoidable in the computerized prescription system. Logistic regression analyses were performed. The risk of a prescription of antibiotics 24 h to 7 days postpartum was analyzed in the entire study population, and in a subgroup of women not having received any antibiotics 48 h prior to delivery until 24 h after delivery, referred to as “antibiotic-naïve.”ResultsManual placenta removal was associated with an increased risk of an antibiotic prescription, adjusted (a) OR = 2.9 (95%CI 1.9–4.3). In the antibiotic-naïve subgroup, manual placenta removal was associated with an increased risk of antibiotic prescription, in general, aOR = 2.2 (95%CI 1.2–4.0), endometritis-specific antibiotics, aOR = 2.7 (95%CI 1.5–4.9), and intravenous antibiotics, aOR = 4.0 (95%CI 2.0–7.9).ConclusionManual placenta removal is associated with an increased risk of antibiotic treatment postpartum. An antibiotic-naïve population might benefit from prophylactic antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection, and prospective studies are needed.

Svensk yrkeslärarutbildning - behörighetskrav och utformning från tidigt 1900-tal till idag
- 2017

Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Bakgrund: Yrkeslärarutbildningen i Sverige framstår ofta som en samlad utbildning. Men det som vanligen betraktas som yrkeslärarutbildning berör utbildning för företrädesvis industri och hantverk (jfr Larsson 1991 & 1995). Men yrkeslärarna har ingen enhetlig bakgrund, utan de kommer från varierande yrkesområden. En del yrkesområden har en lång tradition medan andra är nya och yrkeslärarna är inte längre mästare inom skrået. Inom tekniska sektorn sköttes yrkesutbildningen under lång tid internt av mer erfarna arbetare inom företagen sedan skråväsendet upplösts. Yrkeslärare inom t.ex. vård och omsorg, barn- och fritid samt naturbruk har dock en annan historisk bakgrund (Heyman m.fl. 1984; Lemar 2001; Rudvall 2001; SOU 1963:13). Så vilka har behörighetskraven för olika typer av yrkeslärare varit och vilka är de idag? Hur har yrkeslärarutbildningarna formats? Vilka principer kan identifieras avseende vilka kunskaper yrkeslärare har ansetts behöva? Syftet är att nyansera tidigare beskrivningar av gruppen yrkeslärare och att synliggöra såväl likheter som skillnader över tid i de behörighetskrav som ställts liksom de föreställningar som funnits om vad yrkeslärare behöver kunna. För studien görs sekundäranalyser av SOUrapporter och historiska beskrivningar av svenska yrkeslärarutbildningar, kompletterade med samtida beskrivningar och studier. Materialet analyseras med avseende på likheter och skillnader för att identifiera centrala förändringar över tid och mellan yrkeslärare för olika yrkesområden.

A Farewell to Arms : Motivational Change and Divergence Inside FARC-EP 2002-2010
- 2014
-
Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- How can motivational change and divergence inside a rebel group be explained and what does this imply for our understanding of civil wars? In contemporary research, these questions have received limited attention. In many studies, motives are either overlooked, inferred from a single type of motive indicator or assumed to be narrow, static over time and homogenous throughout the organization. But this leaves researchers largely unable to explain phenomena such as large-scale defections, intra-rebel factionalism and principal-agent problems inside insurgencies.Departing from this criticism, the study analyzes motivational change and divergence inside FARC-EP in 2002-2010, a period of decline during which more than 15 500 guerilla members defected from the guerilla. Four FARC fronts (the 16th, 21st, 47th and 48th) were selected for structured, focused comparison over time, based on the expectation that differing functions of these units should also result in motivational change within and divergence between them. The case-studies build on unique data, including 26 in-depth interviews and 694 survey-responses from these fronts, triangulated against a wide set of primary and secondary sources, including defection statistics.The study finds significant indications of motivational divergence between the four fronts, but only partially along the dimensions originally expected. Functions such as financing, recruitment and propaganda show limited evidence of influencing motives in the expected direction, whereas the intensive combat experienced by the 47th front is clearly associated with more security-motivated enrollment and forced recruitment. Together, increased counterinsurgency operations, internal paranoia and harsh punishments influenced combatants’ security perception, which was one of the strongest motives for defections from FARC, in spite of risks not having been widely considered at the time of enrollment. Beyond this, the role of mid-level commanders is found to be of fundamental importance for understanding motivational change and divergence. In the 16th front, change in the leadership resulted in unprecedented levels of defection and in the 21st, widespread corruption was justified by alleged leadership graft. Mid-level commanders influence motives through leadership by example, tactical skills and monitoring and enforcement of disciplinary codes. In conclusion, the study shows combatant motives to be susceptible to change and divergence even inside a hierarchically organized and disciplined insurgent group such as FARC.

In search of the cell biology for self- versus non-self- recognition

Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Several of today's cancer treatments are based on the immune system's capacity to detect and destroy cells expressing neoantigens on major histocompatibility class-I molecules (MHC-I). Despite this, we still do not know the cell biology behind how antigenic peptide substrates (APSs) for the MHC-I pathway are produced. Indeed, there are few research fields with so many divergent views as the one concerning the source of APSs. This is quite remarkable considering their fundamental role in the immune systems’ capacity to detect and destroy virus-infected or transformed cells. A better understanding of the processes generating APSs and how these are regulated will shed light on the evolution of self-recognition and provide new targets for therapeutic intervention. We discuss the search for the elusive source of MHC-I peptides and highlight the cell biology that is still missing to explain how they are synthesised and where they come from.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- BackgroundSerum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines tend to be increased in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients, or subgroups thereof. Still, the link between cytokine levels and IBS symptoms is unclear. We aim to determine systemic cytokine levels in IBS patients and healthy subjects (HS), confirm the presence of a subset of patients with an increased immune activity and to establish if cytokines are linked to IBS symptoms and pathophysiological factors. MethodsSerum levels of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and IL-10 were measured. All subjects reported IBS symptoms using validated questionnaires and underwent colonic sensorimotor testing. Multivariate supervised orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and unsupervised principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) were implemented. Key ResultsIrritable bowel syndrome patients (n=246) had higher serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, TNF, and IL-10 compared to HS (n=21); however, serum cytokine profiles could not discriminate patients from HS. Moreover, cytokine levels were not correlated with symptoms among patients. Supervised OPLS-DA identified 104 patients (40% of patients) and unsupervised HCA analysis identified 49 patients (20%) with an increased immune activity indicated by elevated levels of serum cytokines compared to HS and the other patients. However, irrespective of how patients with increased immune activity were identified they were symptomatically similar to patients with no indication of increased immune activity. Conclusions & InferencesSerum cytokines are elevated in IBS patients compared to HS. Immune activation characterizes a subset of patients, but modest associations between cytokine profile and symptoms suggest immune activity does not directly influence symptoms in IBS.
