Associations imported with null p-values - PMID 32929287

Open earlEBI opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

For PMID '32929287', original author submission, 731 studies published, then unpublished via the backend to add associations. I reuploaded the submission template via the depocuration app with associations and received no metadata errors, only sumstats errors, as expected:

This was pushed through by Sajo and imported by me.

On checking, I see the most significant snps have imported with null p-values:

I suspect all p-values below about 1e-308 are affected. See submission template:

For this publication, I will fix the p-values manually to allow DR to go ahead. But the issue should be looked into to avoid it reoccuring.

@earlEBI do you know if you would have been able to publish with this error? Looks like the associations are approved?

@ljwh2 Yes, they approved, but I'm afraid I don't know if it would've let me publish. I didn't try.
