Hi everyone, 

I have a quick question about my MultiXcan output. It ran smoothly with no issues, but the pvalues/zscores in the output for best/worst tissues are not matching the corresponding values for each gene in their respective single tissue SPrediXcan results.
Note, I used the latest inflation corrected models and parameters to run SPrediXcan. Could this be the reason why there is conflict between these values? If not do you know why this could be? 

Thank you very much for your help, 
Best regards, 

David

I forgot, this is the command I used to run MultiXcan : 

./SMulTiXcan.py \
--models_folder ~/Endometriosis_TWAS/GTEx_models/ \
--models_name_pattern "en_(?P<tissue>.*)\.db" \
--snp_covariance ~/gtex_v8_expression_elastic_net_snp_smultixcan_covariance.txt.gz \
--metaxcan_folder ~/Endometriosis_TWAS/TWAS_results/ \
--metaxcan_file_name_parse_pattern "SPrediXcan_(?P<tissue>.*)\.csv" \
--gwas_file ~/Endometriosis_TWAS/GWAS/final_META_endometriosis_EUR2.txt.gz \
--snp_column MarkerName \
--effect_allele_column Allele1 \
--non_effect_allele_column Allele2 \
--zscore_column Zscore \
--model_db_snp_key rsid \
--keep_non_rsid \
--cutoff_condition_number 30 \
--verbosity 9 \
--output ~/Endometriosis_TWAS/res_MultiXcan.csv

Could you share a portion of the output?

Sure

For example this is my MultiXcan output. 

And if I look into this first PNKP gene in Breast_Mammary SPrediXcan results, this is what I have

Neither the pvalue or even the uncalibrated_pvalue are matching.
