Hello,

I am doing GSEA analysis with using WebGestallt. However, I noticed that  when I enter the same rank list, I am always getting slightly different results. Because of that I am not able to exactly reproduce my results. So why it is happening?

And I have several data and I want to compare each GSEA results with each other at the end. If it will create always different results, how I can trust it?

Thank you for your help!
Bests,
Elif

I forgot to mention that  all FDR, Enrichment score, NES are changing too.

Because GSEA uses random permutation for significance evaluation. Enrichment score should be the same.
