Normative Aging Study (NAS)

The Normative Aging Study (NAS) is a longitudinal study established by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs in 1963. Participants were male residents and free of chronic disease at the time of recruitment. Participants were invited to undergo an in-person examination every 3-5 years. Participants provided information on medical history, lifestyle and demographic factors and underwent a physical examination and laboratory tests, at each visit. Participants provided written informed consent at each visit, and the VA Boston Healthcare System Institutional Review Board approved the study.

PyEGA3 download client

PyEGA3 Checks prior to download - Is the dataset available for download? Most datasets are available using the PyEGA3 Download client, except for specific legacy datasets. For these ones, refer to Live Outbox distribution, an alternative way to download these datasets.If the dataset you've been granted access to begins with the ID EGAD5XXXXXXX, please refer to the Live Outbox distribution. If the dataset you have been granted access to contains encrypted data (filename ending in .gpg), contact EGA Helpdesk for detailed information on how to download these files.General Information The PyEGA3 download client is available at its GitHub repository. In its README you will find a step by step guide on how to use it to download files you have been granted access to. PyEGA3 implements the GA4GH-compliant HTSGET protocol supporting requests over genomic ranges. This enables the download of specific regions of interest rather than the entire file. HTSGET is not possible for all the files held by EGA: if the dataset does not contain index files (e.g. filename ending in *.crai), then genomic range requests cannot be performed. The maximum number of connections allowed is 30. If more than 30 connections are used, the download client will encounter 500 errors. The recommended number of connections for maximum output is one. Check out our video tutorial! Frequently Asked Questions General questions How do I download the datasets to which I have been granted access? After setting up your EGA download account, you can proceed to download using the EGA download client – PyEGA3. The pyEGA3 download client is a python-based tool for viewing and downloading files from authorised EGA datasets. This download client is continuously being developed for more user-friendly download experiences. Can I download the dataset’s metadata via the download client? No, the download client cannot be used to download metadata. Registered EGA users can download metadata of an authorised dataset by logging into the EGA webpage and navigating to the dataset of choice. Approximately two thirds down the page you will find the option to download the metadata as a zip file. How do I download large datasets as quickly as possible? The main EGA download client is pyEGA3 download client, a python-based tool for viewing and downloading files from authorised EGA datasets.We could exceptionally consider the option of an Aspera download for users experiencing very slow download rates or facing particular issues.Contact the EGA Helpdesk for further information. Pre-requirement and Installation What are the major requirements for the PyEGA3 download client installation and usage? The PyEGA3 client is compatible with any OS with Python 3.6+ installed. The client requires a connection to the internet, sufficient space on the destination drive, and the EGA download account credentials. Where can I find the PyEGA3 download client installation and download instructions? We strongly recommend checking our video tutorial demonstrating the usage of PyEGA3 from installation to file download. More detailed information is available at PyEGA3 GitHub. What ports are required for the PyEGA3 download client to function? PyEGA3 makes HTTPS calls to the EGA Data API (https://ega.ebi.ac.uk:8443). This port 8443 must be reachable from the location where PyEGA3 is executed to avoid timeouts. PyEGA3 download client How to update the PyEGA3 download client to be on the latest version? Updating the client to the latest version can be achieved by running the following command: pip3 install pyega3 --upgrade I do not have an active EGA account. Can I test the download with the PyEGA3 download client? An EGA download test account (ega-test-data@ebi.ac.uk) has been created for troubleshooting and training purposes. The test account does not require an EGA username and password because it contains publicly accessible files from the 1000 Genomes Project. More information about the use of this account and log in details are available at pyEGA3. I lost my connection while the download was in progress. Does this mean that I have to download the file again from the start? The PyEGA3 download client supports automatic resumption of downloads. To enable quicker download speeds, the API breaks files into up to four segments and downloads them in parallel. With the resume feature, downloads will automatically resume if you encounter any errors or if the connection is interrupted. How can I improve the overall download speed of the PyEGA3 download client? Download speeds can be optimised using the --connections parameter which will parallelise download at the file level. If the --connections parameter is provided, all files >100Mb will be downloaded using the specified number of parallel connections. It is important to note that files are still downloaded sequentially, so using multiple connections does not mean downloading multiple files in parallel. The maximum number of connections allowed is 30. If more than 30 connections are used, the download client will encounter 500 errors. The recommended number of connections for maximum output is one. Why is my file taking a long time to be saved? Please note that when a file is being saved, it goes through two processes. First, the downloaded file "chunks" are pieced back together to reconstruct the original file. Secondly, PyEGA3 calculates the checksum of the file to confirm that the file was downloaded successfully. Larger files will take more time to reconstruct and validate the checksum. Why is the HTSGET protocol not working with my dataset of interest? PyEGA3 implements the GA4GH-compliant htsget protocol for supporting requests over genomic ranges. This exciting new feature means that for data files with accompanying index files (e.g. .crai for CRAM files) users can download specific regions of interest rather than the entire file, saving both time and storage space. Please note that in order for the genomic range requests to work for a BAM, CRAM or VCF file there must be an associated BAI, CRAI or TBI file, respectively. If the dataset does not contain these index files then genomic range requests cannot be performed. After download Do I need to decrypt data files downloaded through the pyEGA3 download client? Files are transferred over secure HTTPS connections and received unencrypted, thus there is no need for decryption after data download. What is the purpose of an MD5 file? After the download completes, file integrity is verified using checksums. The PyEGA3 download client automatically verifies each file’s unencrypted md5 after download to ensure that the file was downloaded correctly from the EGA. Errors Why do I get a “400 Client Error” while trying to access the download client? Ensure that your credentials are formatted correctly. Please contact the EGA Helpdesk if you are unsure about your account’s username (i.e. your email address). Why do I get a “500 Server Error”? It is important to note that files are still downloaded sequentially, so using multiple connections does not mean downloading multiple files in parallel. The maximum number of connections allowed is 30. If more than 30 connections are used, the download client will encounter 500 errors. The recommended number of connections for maximum output is one. Otherwise, 500 server errors are internal server errors from EGA’s end. Retry after some time and, if the 500 error persists: check our homepage or Twitter for any outage information or report it to EGA Helpdesk. Why do I get a “slice error”? This type of error occurs when one slice download was prematurely interrupted. Please re-start the same download. The download client will pick up any partial download and download any missing slices. Why do I get the error “Dataset' EGADXXXXXXXXXXX' is not in the list of your authorised datasets”? Please note that the data access was given to the email (username) provided to the Data Access Committee (DAC) in your official request. Therefore, you shall check that the account that you are using is the same one that you sent to the DAC. Why do I get “ERROR:root:Failed to obtain IP address”? This might mean that the connection ports are blocked. Check that the port 8443 is reachable.In case the port is reachable and the error persists, please try to modify the file pyega3.py on line 44 in the python module installation: Replace endpoint = 'https://ipinfo.io/json' with endpoint = 'https://api.myip.com' Why do I get the error “Invalid username, password or secret key - please check and retry”? Make sure that you are using the correct credentials (username and password) and there is no typo. Contact EGA Helpdesk if the problem persists.

European Genome-phenome Archive 15th Anniversary Celebration

2023 marks the 15th Anniversary of the EGA, jointly managed by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) and the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG). To mark the occasion, a simultaneous celebration was held in both institutions on the 13th of December 2023. The teams gathered online to play a quiz game and celebrate all the achievements and milestones with two wonderful anniversary cakes. In 2008, the European Genome-phenome Archive was created at the EBI-EMBL in Cambridge to guarantee that human genome and phenome data were available to the international scientific community while data privacy was preserved. The six-person staff at the beginning of the project is now far behind us, with a team that reaches the number of 35 members. Since 2013, the European Bioinformatics Institute and the Centre for Genomic Regulation share responsibility for The European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA). At that time, the EGA had data for about 0,5 petabytes. Currently, the Archive contains more than 12 petabytes. 2023 comes to an end with several good news. The EGA has been renewed as an ELIXIR Core Data Resource. This was announced during the GA4GH 11th Plenary held in San Francisco last September when ELIXIR-Beacon was also confirmed to be a GA4GH Driver Project. Thus, the Beacon API has maintained this title since 2018. What’s more, the first Federated EGA dataset is now live on our website. This year we also launched new services for EGA users in September. By the numbers, in 2023 the EGA counts 2.5 PB archived, 371 studies published, 208 new submitters and 19 active projects in which the team is participating, among others. We look forward to continuing to support your research in 2024!

Are children born after medical assisted reproduction at greater risk of having an increased de novo mutation rate?

Introduction: De novo mutations (DNMs) play a prominent role in sporadic disorders with reduced fitness such as infertility and intellectual disability. Advanced paternal age is known to increase disease risk in offspring by increasing the number of DNMs in their genome. Less is known about the effect of assisted reproduction techniques (ART) on the number of DNMs in offspring. With the on-going trend of delayed parenthood more children are now born both from older fathers and through ART. Materials and Methods: We investigated 49 trios (mother, father and child) and 2 quartets (mother, father and 2 siblings) divided into children born after spontaneous conception (n=18); born after in vitro fertilisation (IVF) (n=17) and born after intracytoplasmic sperm injection combined with testicular sperm extraction (ICSI-TESE) (n=18). Groups further divided by paternal age, young (<35) or old (>45 years of age at conception). Whole-genome sequencing was performed twice to independently detect and validate all DNMs in children. Results: A clear paternal age effect was observed, with 70 DNMs detected on average in children born to young fathers and 94 DNMs in those born to older fathers (p = 0.001). No significant differences were observed between different methods of conception (p = 1) with paternal age affecting all methods equally. Conclusions: Paternal age, not method of conception, had a major effect on the observed number of DNMs in offspring. Given the role DNMs in disease risk, this negative result is good news for IVF and ICSI-TESE born children, if replicated in larger cohorts.

Comparison of 3 protocols for deriving pancreatic progenitors from hPSCs (RNA-seq)

This dataset contains 26 mapped bam files. The samples were generated with 3 different protocols for deriving pancreatic progenitors from hPSC. Three parallel differentiations were performed, all done in a hPSC NKX6.1-GFP reporter line. For each protocol there are three cellular populations: total (presort), GFP+ and GFP- . In summary: 3 differentiations x 3 protocols x 3 cellular populations. We prepared Smart-Seq2 RNA-seq libraries for the 27 samples, 1 sample failed library preparation and is not therefore included in this dataset.

Neural Systems, Inhibitory Control, and Methamphetamine Dependence

The Neural Systems, Inhibitory Control, and Methamphetamine Dependence study started in 2011 and is currently finishing data collection for its last participants. The study included methamphetamine abusing individuals and healthy control participants aged 18-55 years. Participants who qualified over the telephone were scheduled to visit the London Laboratory at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior for the In-Person Screening Phase. The screening procedures, usually scheduled over two visits, determined if participants were eligible to complete the subsequent study visits. Both groups completed identical screening procedures, with the exception of more in-depth drug use questions for the methamphetamine users. After providing written consent, participants completed questionnaires about their mood, medical, psychiatric and drug use history, personality and life experiences. They also provided a urine sample to determine what drugs they recently used and a breath sample to determine the carbon monoxide levels in their system. The drug screen tested for recent methamphetamine, cocaine, opiates/opioids, benzodiazepines, THC and other amphetamines. Methamphetamine participants needed to test positive for methamphetamine at admission. If methamphetamine participants tested positive for any drugs other than methamphetamine or marijuana, and if healthy control participants tested positive for any drugs other than marijuana, they were excluded from the study. Additionally, the urine samples of female participants were tested for pregnancy; pregnant females were also excluded. If no exclusionary criteria were met during the first screening visit, participants completed a second screening visit to ensure they were mentally and physically healthy enough to participate. The second screening visit included a psychiatric diagnostic interview (DSM-IV (SCID-I) for first 500 participants and the MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview M.I.N.I for the last 50 participants). Additionally, laboratory tests and procedures were completed by the UCLA General Clinical Research Center and interpreted by a study physician. Laboratory tests included vital signs (heart rate--BPM, blood pressure, and respirations), an electrocardiogram (ECG) to record the electrical activity of the heart, and an 18-cc blood sample to perform laboratory tests which included a complete chemistry and metabolic panel, hepatic panel, Hepatitis-C tests, and HIV test. The laboratory tests from this blood sample ensured that participants' liver and kidneys were functioning normally, and that their standard blood counts (red cell, white cell, and salts) were also normal. If a Hepatitis-C (HCV) or HIV test was positive, participants were not allowed to continue in the study and their results were reported to the California State Health Department. Participants deemed eligible to continue in the methamphetamine group participated on an outpatient basis or were admitted to the UCLA Medical Center to participate on an inpatient basis for up to 10 days. Typically, detectable levels of methamphetamine in urinalysis remain for 2-3 days, therefore inpatient days 0-3 served as a "washout period" and the methamphetamine abusing inpatient participants provided daily urine samples to test for recent drug use and pregnancy (female participants only). Outpatient participants were also required to remain abstinent from all drugs except nicotine and marijuana for at least 4 days prior to study sessions. Self-reported abstinence for outpatients was verified by urine toxicology and saliva screening at every visit to UCLA before completion of study procedures. Neurocognitive assessments, about three hours each, typically took place on two separate days. The purpose of the neurocognitive sessions were to assess participants' intellectual and neurocognitive functioning. On either the same day as the neurocognitive testing or on separate days, both methamphetamine abusers and healthy controls were administered a structural MRI to collect information on brain structure.

Sporadic ALS Australia Systems Genomics Consortium (SALSA-SGC)

In 2016 we established the Sporadic ALS Australia Systems Genomics Consortium (SALSA-SGC) funded by the Ice Bucket Challenge Grant administered by the Motor Neurone Disease Research Institute of Australia. The goals of the SALSA-SGC are to collect biological samples from clinics across Australia with matched in depth clinical and self-report phenotypes and to generate multiple levels of genetic and genomic data. In this first data generation exercise of the SALSA-SGC the majority of the samples were collected prior to the formal establishment of SALSA-SGC from clinics across Australia.Briefly, the cohort includes the University of Sydney’s Australian Motor Neuron Disease DNA Bank (MND Bank) cohort recruited April 2000 to June 2011), with study protocol approved by the Sydney South West Area Health Service Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC). Cases were recruited from around Australia via state-based MND associations with diagnosis verified by a neurologist. The remainder of the cases were recruited from clinics across Australia between 2015 and 2017 under HREC approvals from Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital, Macquarie University Multidisciplinary Motor Neurone Disease Clinic,  Calvary Health Care Bethlehem in Melbourne , Fiona Stanley Hospital in Perth, and from 2016 under HREC approvals at each site for the sporadic ALS Australia Systems Genomics Consortium (SALSA-SGC). The ALS cases were diagnosed with definite or probable ALS according to the revised El Escorial criteria. Some controls were recruited as either partners or friends of patients, healthy individuals free of neuromuscular diseases. We are providing GWAS and MWAS data in this dataset. Individual level GWAS data were generated using Illumina Infinium CoreExome-24 version 1.1 chips for N= 846 cases and N=665 controls. Individual MWAS data was generated using the Illumina Human methylation 450K array for N=782 cases and N=613 controls. There 1315 individuals where GWAS and MWAS data has been generated and is available. Further information on these data sets can be found: Paper 1: Restuadi, R, Garton, FC, Benyamin, B, Lin, T, et al.

Therapeutic Trial of Potassium and Acetazolamide in Andersen-Tawil Syndrome

Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is an ion channel disorder that causes episodes of muscle weakness and potentially life-threatening heart arrhythmias. The majority of ATS cases are caused by a mutation in the KCNJ2 gene, which is linked to potassium channels in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle; other cases are presumed to be caused by an undetermined gene lesion. To date, the treatment for ATS has been largely anecdotal, and no treatments have been formally assessed in a controlled clinical trial. This study will determine whether potassium supplements and/or acetazolamide, which is a diuretic medication, affect the duration of muscle weakness and heart rhythm abnormalities in people with ATS. Participation in this study will last about 11 months. Participants will first attend a 3-day inpatient visit that will include a medical history, physical examination, blood work, heart rhythm testing by an electrocardiogram (ECG) and Holter monitor, strength testing, a health questionnaire, and daily potassium supplementation. Participants will also track the number and length of weakness episodes that they experience while in the hospital. On the last day of the inpatient visit, participants will be provided with multiple bottles containing either potassium or placebo. Participants will then return home for an 18-week treatment period that will consist of six 3-week-long treatments of either potassium or placebo, with the treatment schedule being randomly determined. Upon completing the first 18-week treatment period, participants will attend a second 3-day inpatient visit that will include the same tests and procedures as the first. The only difference will be that participants will receive acetazolamide along with potassium. This will be followed by a second 18-week treatment period that will consist of six 3-week-long treatments of either acetazolamide or placebo. At the end of the second treatment period, participants will fill out another health questionnaire. Throughout both 18-week treatment periods, participants will phone in daily to track any muscle or heart problems. They will also provide blood samples on a weekly basis. At Weeks 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, and 17 of both treatment periods, participants will wear a Holter monitor for 24 hours and then mail it in. A final outpatient visit will occur 8 weeks after the end of the second treatment period and will include heart rhythm testing, muscle strength testing, and blood work.
