EpiGraphDB Get Genetic Correlations
Get strong genetic correlations (|rg| > 0.8) between a GWAS trait and other traits in the IEU OpenGWAS database, indicating shared genetic architecture. NOTE: the genetic-correlation graph is sparse and matches exact, case-sensitive trait labels, so many common traits (e.g. 'Body mass index') return no rows even though they exist in OpenGWAS — an empty result means 'no strong-rg edge in the graph', not 'no shared genetics'. Genetic correlation is NOT causal evidence; use EpiGraphDB_get_mendelia…
Overview
Get strong genetic correlations (|rg| > 0.8) between a GWAS trait and other traits in the IEU OpenGWAS database, indicating shared genetic architecture. NOTE: the genetic-correlation graph is sparse and matches exact, case-sensitive trait labels, so many common traits (e.g. 'Body mass index') return no rows even though they exist in OpenGWAS — an empty result means 'no strong-rg edge in the graph', not 'no shared genetics'. Genetic correlation is NOT causal evidence; use EpiGraphDB_get_mendelian_randomization for causality. Example traits with data: 'Waist circumference', 'Hip circumference', 'Body fat percentage'.
