➡️ ESHG poster is available here.
ℹ️ bGWAS has been updated to version 1.0.3.
This update should solve the compatibility issues that arose with more
recent R versions, but does not affect the analyses results. Note that
you might need to update some packages to be able to continue using
bGWAS.
Check the NEWS to learn more about what has been modified!
Note: some Prior GWASs have been removed, you can find more details
here.
bGWAS is an R-package to perform a Bayesian GWAS (Genome Wide
Association Study), using summary statistics from a conventional GWAS as
input. The aim of the approach is to increase power by leveraging
information from related traits and by comparing the observed Z-scores
from the focal phenotype (provided as input) to prior effects. These
prior effects are directly estimated from publicly available GWASs
(currently, a set of 38 studies, last update 20-08-2019 - hereinafter
referred to as “prior GWASs” or “risk factors”). Only prior GWASs having
a significant causal effect on the focal phenotype, identified using a
multivariable Mendelian Randomization (MR) approach, are used to
calculate the prior effects. Causal effects are estimated masking the
focal chromosome to ensure independence, and the prior effects are
estimated as described in the figure below.
Observed and prior effects are compared using Bayes Factors. Significance is assessed by calculating the probability of observing a value larger than the observed BF (P-value) given the prior distribution. This is done by decomposing the analytical form of the BFs and using an approximation for most BFs to make the computation faster. Prior, posterior and direct effects, alongside BFs and p-values are returned. Note that prior, posterior and direct effects are estimated on the Z-score scale, but are automatically rescaled to beta scale if possible.
The principal functions available are:
-
bGWAS()
main function that calculates prior effects from prior GWASs, compares them to observed Z-scores and returns an object of class bGWAS -
list_priorGWASs()
directly returns information about the prior GWASs that can be used to calculate prior effects -
select_priorGWASs()
allows a quick selection of prior GWASs (to include/exclude specific studies when calculating prior effects) -
extract_results_bGWAS()
returns results (prior, posterior and direct estimate / standard-error + p-value from BF for SNPs) from an object of class bGWAS -
manhattan_plot_bGWAS()
creates a Manhattan Plot from an object of class bGWAS -
extract_MRcoeffs_bGWAS()
returns multivariable MR coefficients (1 estimate using all chromosomes + 22 estimates with 1 chromosome masked) from an object of class bGWAS -
coefficients_plot_bGWAS()
creates a Coefficients Plot (causal effect of each prior GWASs on the focal phenotype) from an object of class bGWAS -
heatmap_bGWAS()
creates a heatmap to represent, for each significant SNP, the contribution of each prior GWAS to the estimated prior effect from an object of class bGWAS
All the functions available and more details about their usage can be found in the manual.
You can install the current version of bGWAS with:
# Directly install the package from github
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("n-mounier/bGWAS")
library(bGWAS)To run the analysis with bGWAS two inputs are needed:
Can be a regular (space/tab/comma-separated) file or a gzipped file
(.gz) or a data.frame. Must contain the following columns, which can
have alternative names:
-
SNP-identifier: `rs` or `rsid`, `snp`, `snpid`, `rnpid`
Alternate (effect) allele: `a1` or `alt`, `alts`
Reference allele: `a2` or `a0`, `ref`
Z-statistics: `z` or `Z`, `zscore`
-
Effect-size: `b` or `beta`, `beta1`
Standard error: `se` or `std`
If you want the prior/posterior/corrected effects to be rescaled, please make sure to provide effect sizes and standard errors instead of (or in addition to) Z-statistics.
These files should be downloaded separately and stored in ~/ZMatrices
or in the folder specified when launching the analysis. These files
contains the Z-scores for all prior GWASs :
-
*ZMatrix\_MR.csv.gz*: Z-scores (strong instruments only) used for
multivariable MR,
*ZMatrix\_Full.csv.gz*: Z-scores (all SNPs) used to calculate the prior
Z-scores,
*AvailableStudies.tsv*: A file containing information about the prior
GWASs available.
You can download these files using this link or following the instructions below. Please note that your input GWAS will be merged with the Z-Matrix files (using rsid and alleles to align effects), and that the results reported will use the Z-Matrix files chr:pos information (GRCh37 - since UK10K data has been used to imputed the prior GWASs).
- On UNIX/MACOSX, from a terminal:
wget https://drive.switch.ch/index.php/s/jvSwoIxRgCKUSI8/download -O ZMatrices.tar.gz
tar xzvf ZMatrices.tar.gzIf you want to use your own set of prior GWASs, please have a look here to see how you can modify the files.
Before running your analysis, you can select the prior GWASs you want to
include. You can use the function list_priorGWASs() to get some
information about the prior GWASs available.
You should remove traits that by definition are not independent from
your trait of interest. For example, before analysing BMI results, make
sure to exclude “Height” from the prior GWASs used. You can use the
function select_priorGWASs() to automatically exclude/include some
traits or some files. You should also check for sample overlap, and
remove prior GWASs that come from the same consortium as your data. If
there are individuals in common between your conventional GWAS and prior
GWASs, it might induce some bias.

- .log - log file
- PriorGWASs.tsv - contains information about all prior GWASs (general info + status (used/removed) + univariable/multivariable MR estimates)
- CoefficientsByChromosome.csv - contains the multivariable MR estimates when masking the focal chromosome (22 coefficients for each prior GWASs used for prior estimation)
- PriorBFp.csv - contains BF and p-values, prior, posterior and direct effects estimates for all SNPs
- SignificantSNPs.csv - contains BF and p-values, prior, posterior and direct effects estimates for a subset of significant SNPs (identified according to specified parameters)
A detailed description of these files can be found here.
Analysis using all the 38 prior GWASs available, for a conventional GWAS containing ~7M SNPs in common with the prior studies ~ 25 minutes.
Analysis using 6 prior GWASs, for a conventional GWAS containing ~ 300,000 SNPs in common with prior studies (see example A) ~ 2 minutes.
