psygenetGeneSentences {psygenet2r} | R Documentation

## Query PsyGeNET for given gene(s) and extract the pmids sentences that report a gene-disease asssociation.

### Description

Given a gene or a gene list, retrives the pmids and sentences for each gene-disease association from PsyGeNET and creates an object of type `DataGeNET.Psy`.

### Usage

    psygenetGeneSentences(geneList, database = "ALL", verbose = FALSE)

### Arguments

`geneList` | Name or vector of names (that can be both code or symbol) to specific genes from PsyGeNET. The genes non existing in PsyGeNET will be removed from the output.
`database` | Name of the database that will be queried. It can take the values `'psycur15'` to use data validated by experts for first release of PsyGeNET; `'psycur16'` to use data validated by experts for second release of PsyGeNET; or `'ALL'` to use both databases. Default `'ALL'`.
`verbose` | By default `FALSE`. Change it to `TRUE` to get a on-time log from the function.

### Value

An object of class `DataGeNET.Psy`

### Examples

    genesOfInterest <- c("PECR", "ADH1C", "CAST", "ERAP1", "PPP2R2B",
                         "ESR1", "GATA4", "CDH13")
    psyGeneSen <- psygenetGeneSentences( geneList = genesOfInterest,
                                         database = "ALL")
