Extracts independent variants from GWAS summary statistics using clumping with support for re-randomization and configuration.

Usage

extract_independent_variants(
  exposure_data,
  p_threshold = 5e-05,
  etamean = 0.5,
  ref_panel = NULL,
  clump_r2 = 0.001,
  clump_kb = 10000,
  temp_dir = NULL,
  verbose = TRUE,
  rerand = TRUE,
  plink_path = NULL
)
