This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.7.2). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.
Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.
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.
The command set.seed(20251109) 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.
Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.
Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.
Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.
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 0ac74ee. 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:

We use the processed (expression & genotype) data of Strober et.al, 2019 to perform the eQTL analysis.
For the association testing, we use a linear regression model for each gene-variant pair at each time point. Following the practice in Strober et.al, we adjust for the first five PCs.
The code to perform this step can be found in the script
dynamic_eQTL_real/00_eQTLs.R from the code directory.
After this step, we have the effect size of eQTLs for each gene-variant pair at each time point, as well as its standard error.
To fit the FASH model on \(\{\beta_i(t_j), s_{ij}\}_{i\in N,j \in [16]}\), we consider fitting two FASH models:
A FASH model based on first order IWP (testing for dynamic eQTLs: \(H_0: \beta_i(t)=c\)).
A FASH model based on second order IWP (testing for nonlinear-dynamic eQTLs: \(H_0: \beta_i(t)=c_1+c_2t\)).
The code to perform this step can be found in the script
dynamic_eQTL_real/01_fash.R from the code directory.
We will directly load the fitted FASH models from the output directory.
load(paste0(result_dir, "/fash_fit1_all.RData"))
We will load the datasets from the fitted FASH object:
datasets <- fash_fit1$fash_data$data_list
for (i in 1:length(datasets)) {
datasets[[i]]$SE <- fash_fit1$fash_data$S[[i]]
}
all_genes <- unique(sapply(strsplit(names(datasets), "_"), "[[", 1))
In this analysis, we will focus on the FASH(1) model that assumes a first order IWP and tests for dynamic eQTLs.
Let’s take a quick overview of the fitted FASH model:
log_prec <- seq(0,10, by = 0.2)
fine_grid <- sort(c(0, exp(-0.5*log_prec)))
fash_fit1 <- fash(Y = "beta", smooth_var = "time", S = "SE", data_list = datasets,
num_basis = 20, order = 1, betaprec = 0,
pred_step = 1, penalty = 10, grid = fine_grid,
num_cores = num_cores, verbose = TRUE)
save(fash_fit1, file = "./results/fash_fit1_all.RData")

If we measure the significance using the false discovery rate, then it is sensitive to the value of \(\pi_0\). The estimated \(\pi_0\) is 0.4106637, which is way too small to be realistic.
One likely reason could be due to model-misspecification under the alternative hypothesis. To account for this, we will consider the following approaches:
(i): Computing a conservative estimate of \(\pi_0\) based on the BF procedure:
fash_fit1_update <- BF_update(fash_fit1, plot = FALSE)
fash_fit1_update$prior_weights
save(fash_fit1_update, file = paste0(result_dir, "/fash_fit1_update.RData"))
The conservative estimate is 0.93568, which is much more realistic.
(ii): Instead of looking at the FDR which is based on the estimated \(\pi_0\), we can use the minimum local false sign rate (\(\text{min-lfsr}_i\)) to measure significance: \[ \text{min-lfsr}_i = \min_{t} \left\{ \text{lfsr}(W_i(t)) \right\}, \] where \(W_i(t) = \beta_i(t) - \beta_i(0)\).
Let’s compute the significance using the minimum local false sign rate (\(\text{min-lfsr}_i\)):
smooth_var_refined = seq(0,15, by = 0.1)
min_lfsr_summary1 <- min_lfsr_summary(fash_fit1, num_cores = num_cores, smooth_var = smooth_var_refined)
save(min_lfsr_summary1, file = "./results/min_lfsr_summary1.RData")
min_lfsr_summary1_update <- min_lfsr_summary(fash_fit1_update, num_cores = num_cores, smooth_var = smooth_var_refined)
save(min_lfsr_summary1_update, file = "./results/min_lfsr_summary1_update.RData")
Let’s visualize how the min-lfsr compares with the local false discovery rate (lfdr):
load(paste0(result_dir, "/min_lfsr_summary1.RData"))
# sample some indices for easy visualization
sample_indices <- sample(1:length(min_lfsr_summary1$min_lfsr), 1e5)
min_lfsr1_unadj <- min_lfsr_summary1$min_lfsr[sample_indices]
lfdr1_vec_unadj <- fash_fit1$lfdr[min_lfsr_summary1$index][sample_indices]
plot(lfdr1_vec_unadj, min_lfsr1_unadj,
pch = 20, cex = 0.1,
ylim = c(0,1), xlim = c(0,1),
xlab = "lfdr", ylab = "min-lfsr", main = "lfdr vs min-lfsr (Un-adjusted)")
lines(c(0,1), c(0,1), col = "red")

Let’s also visualize the min-lfsr and the lfdr from the BF-updated model:
load(paste0(result_dir, "/min_lfsr_summary1_update.RData"))
min_lfsr1 <- min_lfsr_summary1_update$min_lfsr[sample_indices]
lfdr1_vec <- fash_fit1_update$lfdr[min_lfsr_summary1_update$index[sample_indices]]
plot(lfdr1_vec, min_lfsr1,
pch = 20, cex = 0.1,
ylim = c(0,1), xlim = c(0,1),
xlab = "lfdr", ylab = "min-lfsr", main = "lfdr vs min-lfsr (BF-adjusted)")
lines(c(0,1), c(0,1), col = "red")

Indeed, the min-lfsr tends to be more conservative than the lfdr, especially when \(\hat{\pi_0}\) has not been adjusted using the BF procedure.
Let’s also assess how does the BF-update of \(\pi_0\) affect the min-lfsr.
plot(min_lfsr1_unadj, min_lfsr1,
pch = 20, cex = 0.1,
ylim = c(0,1), xlim = c(0,1),
xlab = "min-lfsr (unadjusted)", ylab = "min-lfsr", main = "Effect of BF adjustment on min-lfsr")

We will use the updated FASH model (1) to detect dynamic eQTLs.
alpha <- 0.05
test1 <- fdr_control(fash_fit1_update, alpha = alpha, plot = F)
10290 datasets are significant at alpha level 0.05. Total datasets tested: 1009173.
fash_highlighted1 <- test1$fdr_results$index[test1$fdr_results$FDR <= alpha]
How many pairs are detected as dynamic eQTLs?
pairs_highlighted1 <- names(datasets)[fash_highlighted1]
length(pairs_highlighted1)
[1] 10290
length(pairs_highlighted1)/length(datasets)
[1] 0.01019647
How many unique genes are detected?
genes_highlighted1 <- unique(sapply(strsplit(pairs_highlighted1, "_"), "[[", 1))
length(genes_highlighted1)
[1] 1295
length(genes_highlighted1)/length(all_genes)
[1] 0.2035523
Let’s see how many pairs and genes remain significant after controlling the min-lfsr:
fash_highlighted1_lfsr <- min_lfsr_summary1_update$index[min_lfsr_summary1_update$fsr <= alpha]
pairs_highlighted1_lfsr <- names(datasets)[fash_highlighted1_lfsr]
length(pairs_highlighted1_lfsr)
[1] 10070
length(pairs_highlighted1_lfsr)/length(datasets)
[1] 0.009978468
genes_highlighted1_lfsr <- unique(sapply(strsplit(pairs_highlighted1_lfsr, "_"), "[[", 1))
length(genes_highlighted1_lfsr)
[1] 1271
length(genes_highlighted1_lfsr)/length(all_genes)
[1] 0.1997799
It seems like once \(\hat{\pi_0}\) is adjusted, there is not much difference between measuring significance using the min-lfsr or the lfdr. From now on, we will consider the pairs that are significant using the lfdr.

Even the most significant pairs from FASH for each gene do not show a clear pattern of dynamic eQTLs. It is kind of expected that FASH won’t conclude with high confidence that these genes have dynamic eQTLs.
Following the definition in Strober et.al, we will classify the detected dynamic eQTLs into different categories:
Early: eQTLs with strongest effect during the first three days: \(\max_{t\leq3} |\beta(t)| - \max_{t> 3} |\beta(t)| > 0\).
Late: eQTLs with strongest effect during the last four days: \(\max_{t\geq 12} |\beta(t)| - \max_{t< 12} |\beta(t)| > 0\).
Middle: eQTLs with strongest effect during days 4-11: \(\max_{4\leq t\leq 11} |\beta(t)| - \max_{t> 11 | t< 4} |\beta(t)| > 0\).
Switch: eQTLs with effect sign switch during the time course such that \(\min\{\max\beta(t)^+,\max\beta(t)^-\}-c>0\) where \(c\) is a threshold that we set to 0.25 (which means with two alleles, the maximal difference of effect size is at least \(\geq 2\times\min\{\max\beta(t)^+,\max\beta(t)^-\}\times2 \geq 2 \times 0.25 \times 2 = 1\)).
We will take a look at the significant pairs detected by FASH (order 1), and classify them based on the false sign rate (lfsr).
