# PGC Major Depressive Disorder — GWAS Summary Statistics

[![License: CC BY 4.0](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-CC_BY_4.0-lightgrey)](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)

## Dataset Description

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics for **Major Depressive Disorder** phenotypes from the [Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC)](https://pgc.unc.edu/).

Each publication is available as a separate subset (config) and can be loaded independently.

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load a specific GWAS
ds = load_dataset("OpenMed/pgc-mdd", "AntiDepResponse2021")
print(ds)
```

### List all available subsets

```python
from datasets import get_dataset_config_names
print(get_dataset_config_names("OpenMed/pgc-mdd"))
```

## Subsets

| Config | Phenotype | Journal | Year | PubMed |
|--------|-----------|---------|------|--------|
| `AntiDepResponse2021` | Antidepressant Response | Biol Psychiatry: Global Open Science | 2021 | Pending |
| `mdd2013` | Major Depression | Molecular Psychiatry | 2013 | [22472876](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22472876/) |
| `mdd2018` | Major Depression | Nature Genetics | 2018 | [29700475](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29700475/) |
| `mdd2018_noUKBB` | Major Depression (no UK Biobank) | Nature Genetics | 2018 | [29700475](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29700475/) |
| `mdd2021asi` | Major Depression (East Asian) | JAMA Psychiatry | 2021 | [34586374](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34586374/) |
| `mdd2023diverse` | Major Depression (Multi-Ancestry) | Nature Genetics | 2023 | [38177345](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38177345/) |
| `mdd2025` | Major Depression | Cell | 2025 | [39814019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39814019/) |
| `ppd2023` | Peripartum Depression | American Journal of Psychiatry | 2023 | [37849304](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37849304/) |

## Data Format

All data is stored as **Apache Parquet** shards (10,000 rows each). Common columns:

| Column | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `SNP` / `ID` | SNP rsID or variant identifier |
| `CHR` | Chromosome |
| `BP` / `POS` | Base-pair position (typically GRCh37/hg19) |
| `A1` | Effect allele |
| `A2` | Non-effect allele |
| `OR` / `BETA` | Odds ratio or effect size |
| `SE` | Standard error |
| `P` | P-value |
| `_source_file` | Original source filename |

> Column names vary between publications. Check each subset's schema.
