# How to run Conditional Analysis

## Introduction

[Conditional analyis](/background-reading/conditional-analysis.md) is a GWAS tool that performs associations while conditioning over a set (one or more ) of initial variants. It is performed with [REGENIE](https://rgcgithub.github.io/regenie/).

We provide the following tools

## Unmodifiable Conditional Analysis Pipeline

This [pipeline ](/working-in-the-sandbox/running-analyses-in-sandbox/how-to-run-genome-wide-association-studies-gwas/conditional-analysis/unmodifiable-conditional-analysis-pipeline.md)receives as inputs sumstats, nulls, pheno/cov file for a phenotype, finemaps the input sumstats to return the set of initial hits and performs iterative conditional analysis for each of the hits until a threshold is reached (either pval or # of hits).

## Unmodifiable Conditional Analysis Custom Regions Pipeline

[Pipeline ](/working-in-the-sandbox/running-analyses-in-sandbox/how-to-run-genome-wide-association-studies-gwas/conditional-analysis/unmodifiable-conditional-analysis-custom-regions-pipeline.md)that is conceptually similar, but in this case no finemapping is done and the user must provide a file containing the hits (1 or more) and regions.

## Modifiable Conditional Analysis Custom Regions Pipeline

[Similar as above](/working-in-the-sandbox/running-analyses-in-sandbox/how-to-run-genome-wide-association-studies-gwas/conditional-analysis/modifiable-conditional-analysis-custom-regions-pipeline.md), but users can pass their own phenotype file and covariates, bypassing the checks/limitations required for automatic export.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.finngen.fi/working-in-the-sandbox/running-analyses-in-sandbox/how-to-run-genome-wide-association-studies-gwas/conditional-analysis.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
