Characterization of degradation and heterozygote balance by simulation of the forensic DNA analysis process
Hansson, Nils Oskar Gunnar; Egeland, Thore; Gill, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Simulation experiments were used to show the impact of varying extraction efficiency, aliquot proportion, and PCR efficiency on the heterozygote balance of a range of diploid and haploid cells. Reducing either parameters ... -
Computational challenges in family genetics
Kling, Daniel (PhD Thesis;2015:36, Doctoral thesis, 2020-11-13)There is a constant demand to determine the most probable relationship between a set of person given some genetic marker data and some hypotheses about pedigree structure. A constant stream of paternity cases is obtained ... -
Does prolonged labor affect the birth experience and subsequent wish for cesarean section among first-time mothers? A quantitative and qualitative analysis of a survey from Norway
Gaudernack, Lise Christine; Michelsen, Trond Melbye; Egeland, Thore; Voldner, Nanna; Lukasse, Mirjam (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Prolonged labor might contribute to a negative birth experience and influence first-time mothers’ attitudes towards future pregnancies. Previous studies have not adjusted for possible confounding factors, such ... -
Establishment of gut microbiota in infants from a large Norwegian cohort
Avershina, Ekaterina (PhD Thesis;2015:76, Doctoral thesis, 2020-11-10)Human gut microbiota, our so-called forgotten organ, is crucial for proper functioning of our body and for health maintenance. Although the topic of the gut microbiota establishment is very important, scientists still have ... -
Estimation of small probabilities with applications to forensic genetics
Azulay, Naomi (Master thesis, 2016-08-10)When determining kinship relations based on genetic material, there is a need to quantify the probability for doing errors. These probabilities are typically very small, but nonetheless important, and needs to be controlled. ... -
Gene variations in oestrogen pathways, CYP19A1 , daily 17ß-estradiol and mammographic density phenotypes in premenopausal women.
Flote, Vidar Gordon; Furberg, Anne-Sofie; McTiernan, Anne; Frydenberg, Hanne; Ursin, Giske; Iversen, Anita; Lofterød, Trygve; Ellison, Peter T.; Wist, Erik; Egeland, Thore; Wilsgaard, Tom; Makar, Karen W; Chang-Claude, Jenny; Thune, Inger (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014) -
Genetisk og klinisk karakterisering av moyamoyasjukdom hos pasientar av skandinavisk opphav
Steinsvåg, Ingunn Vespestad (Master thesis, 2019)Innleiing Dei siste 15 åra har det vore stor utvikling av nye teknologiar for DNA-sekvensering. Dette har opna opp for mange nye bruksområde av desse teknologiane. Utviklinga av neste generasjons sekvensering (NGS) har ... -
Kan degradering i mRNA predikere alder på biologiske spor?
Gjengedal, Celine Therese (Master thesis, 2020)DNA-analyser er et viktig verktøy for å knytte et individ til et biologisk spor funnet på et åsted. DNA gir i hovedsak kun informasjon om identitet, og sier ikke noe om når eller hvordan et spor ble avsatt. RNA har tidligere ... -
Lipoprotein subfractions by nuclear magnetic resonance are associated with tumor characteristics in breast cancer
Flote, Vidar Gordon; Vettukattil, Muhammad Riyas; Bathen, Tone Frost; Egeland, Thore; McTiernan, Anne; Frydenberg, Hanne; Husøy, Anders; Finstad, Sissi Espetvedt; Lømo, Jon; Garred, Øystein; Schlichting, Ellen; Wist, Erik; Thune, Inger (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -

Parameters and pedigrees in forensic genetics and statistics
Kaur, Navreet (PhD Thesis;2017:46, Doctoral thesis, 2017)With the rapidly evolving DNA technology today, there is a constant need of more robust statistical methods for analyzing the data. The sequencing techniques are improving, making more genetic markers available, and we are ... -
Prioritising family members for genotyping in missing person cases: A general approach combining the statistical power of exclusion and inclusion
Vigeland, Magnus Dehli; Marsico, Franco L.; Herrera Piñero, Mariana; Egeland, Thore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Missing person identification typically involves genetic matching of a person of interest against relatives of the missing person. In cases with few available relatives, exhumations or other substantial efforts may be ... -
Relationship inference and inbreeding in forensic genetics
Brustad, Hilde Kjelgaard (PhD Thesis;2021:48, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Inference of relatedness between individuals is of interest in fields as disparate as animal breeding, archaeology, medical genetics and genealogy. In the forensic context, emphasised in this thesis, applications include ... -

Hernandis, Elias; Dørum, Guro; Egeland, Thore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019) -
Statistical methods for match probabilities with applications to Y chromosome data
Lanes, Daniel (Master thesis, 2016-08-10)Accurate estimates of Y-STR haplotype frequencies is an interesting problem in itself, but is especially important in forensic genetics, where the frequencies are used to calculate the likelihood ratio (LR) for the evidential ... -
