plotTrait: Plot all correlations with a specific trait

In alexploner/GeneCorrAtlas: Display the Atlas of Genetic Correlations (Bulik-Sullivan et al. 2015)

Description

Given the atlas of genetic correlations or a valid subset, plus a trait name, this function plots all correlations of the specified trait and all other traits in the correlation set. The plotting data (including confidence intervals) is returned invisibly.

Usage

plotTrait(trait, data = gcatlas, conf = 0.95, sort = TRUE,
  rlim = c(-0.5, 1))

Arguments

trait	The name of the trait for which to plot the correlations; can be abbreviated, but must be unique.
data	Either the full atlas of genetic correlations (gcatlas, the default), or a valid subset, from which to draw correlations.
conf	The confidence level for the confidence intervals
sort	Logical switch indicating whether to sort the traits by by correlation (default: TRUE)
rlim	Cutoff values for plotting the confidence limits, so that wide confidence limits do not dominate the plot

Value

The plot as an ggplot2 object. Note that the plotting data can be easily extracted for further processing, see Examples.

Examples

## Default invocation
plotTrait("ADHD")

## Subset of the full atlas
plotTrait("Alz", sel_trt("Obesity"))

## Extract the plotting data
x = plotTrait("Cor")
x$data
## Useful extra attributes
attributes(x$data)
