Checks: 6 1

Knit directory: multigroup_ctwas_analysis/

This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.7.0). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.

R Markdown file: uncommitted changes

The R Markdown file has unstaged changes. To know which version of the R Markdown file created these results, you’ll want to first commit it to the Git repo. If you’re still working on the analysis, you can ignore this warning. When you’re finished, you can run wflow_publish to commit the R Markdown file and build the HTML.

Environment: empty

Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.

Seed: set.seed(20231112)

The command set.seed(20231112) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.

Session information: recorded

Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

Cache: none

Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.

File paths: relative

Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.

Repository version: c791833

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.

The results in this page were generated with repository version c791833. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:


Ignored files:
    Ignored:    .Rhistory
    Ignored:    cv/

Unstaged changes:
    Modified:   analysis/realdata_final_tissueselection_mingene0_exclude_brainprocessed.Rmd
    Modified:   analysis/realdata_final_tissueselection_mingene0_splicing_exclude_brainprocessed.Rmd

Note that any generated files, e.g. HTML, png, CSS, etc., are not included in this status report because it is ok for generated content to have uncommitted changes.

These are the previous versions of the repository in which changes were made to the R Markdown (analysis/realdata_final_tissueselection_mingene0_exclude_brainprocessed.Rmd) and HTML (docs/realdata_final_tissueselection_mingene0_exclude_brainprocessed.html) files. If you’ve configured a remote Git repository (see ?wflow_git_remote), click on the hyperlinks in the table below to view the files as they were in that past version.

Introduction

For non-psychiatric traits, we ran a cTWAS analysis using sQTL data from all 49 GTEx tissues.
For psychiatric traits, we used only the 9 GTEx brain tissues.
We ranked tissues by their G-test p-values & Fisher p-values and selected those passing the Bonferroni threshold (0.05 divided by the number of tissues) for the multi-group cTWAS analysis.
Default settings were used for computing z-scores, assembling input data, and estimating model parameters.

Mem: 50g/node got killed, 100g/node

Remove tissues with <200 samples. (2) Remove some tissues that are not related to our traits, including Testis, Nerve Tibial, Ovary, Prostate, Uterus, Vagina, Breast Mammary Tissue.
