Hi all,
I have run a bivariate GCTA analysis and am somewhat unclear how to interpret the sample size specifications in the output:
Pairwise genetic relationships between 6661 individuals are included
Non-missing phenotypes of 4919 individuals are included
4883 individuals are in common in these files.
-> I am unclear about this number; when testing overlapping phenotypes of trait#1 and trait #2, I only get an n of 1658. Am I misinterpreting the meaning of this output?
4707 non-missing phenotypes for trait #1 and 1823 for trait #2
6530 observations
My general question is on how many individuals bivariate GCTA is performed, as I assumed it would run on the 1658 overlapping samples.
Many thanks in advance for any help,
Saskia
