    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; actuarial mathematics; Statistik; programming; Statistics; Mathematics; Naturvetenskap; Natural science; hidden Markov model; linkage analysis; Human genome; disease gene; programmering; aktuariematematik; operationsanalys; operations research; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis is interdisciplinary between Mathematical Statistics, Genetics, and Medicine. It mainly consists of topics in mathematical modelling of the correlation of inheritance of genes and disease in a family, a method called linkage analysis. It is organized as follows. READ MORE

  4. 2. Hypospadias : gene mapping and candidate gene studied

    Author : Thi Thai Hanh Trinh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation in boys, characterized by incomplete fusion of the urethral folds, abnormal opening of urethra and different degrees of curvature of the penis. In Sweden, the incidence of hypospadias is 1.14 per 300 male live-births according to the annual Swedish Malformation Registry. READ MORE

  5. 3. Genetic Mapping of Susceptibility Genes for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

    Author : Bo Johanneson; Jean Pierre Hugot; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular genetics; Association analysis; Candidate gene; Complex disease; Genome scan; Linkage analysis; Mapping; Susceptibility genes; Systemic lupus erythematosus; Genetik; Genetics; Genetik; medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Abstract : Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease with unknown etiology. The aim of this thesis was to identify susceptibility regions through genetic mapping, using model-based linkage analysis on nuclear and extended SLE multicase families. READ MORE

  6. 4. Gene Mapping in Ficedula Flycatchers

    Author : Niclas Backström; Hans Ellegren; Juha Merilä; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : collared flycatcher; SNP; linkage disequilibrium; genetic map; pedigree;

    Abstract : In order to get full understanding of how evolution proceeds in natural settings it is necessary to reveal the genetic basis of the phenotypic traits that play a role for individual fitness in different environments. There are a few possible approaches, most of which stem from traditional mapping efforts in domestic animals and other model species. READ MORE

  7. 5. Gene mapping of atopic dermatitis

    Author : Cilla Söderhäll; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Atopic dermatitis is a hereditary, pruritic, inflammatory and chronic skin disease that typically presents in early childhood. It is often associated with other atopic manifestations, such as asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, and elevated total and/or allergen-specific serum lgE levels. READ MORE
