Ld score regression

Hello,
I am trying to run LD score regression on my GWAS results in order to assess polygenecity vs confounding from my population. My GWAS was a linear regression of ~8.8 million variants and 900 samples.

I followed the example available at the link below. I was able to replicate the analysis one of the 1kg datasets available through hail on chromsome 21.
https://ibg.colorado.edu/cdrom2023/session/Day-5b%20Hail%20I,%20Tim%20Poterba/2021_IBG_Hail/05-advanced-hail-functionality.ipynb

gwas_control_gene = hl.read_table(gwas_results_file)
mt = hl.read_matrix_table(mt_gwas_ready_file)

ht_scores = hl.experimental.ld_score(
    entry_expr=mt.n_alt_alleles,
    locus_expr=mt.locus,
    radius=1e6
)

betas = gwas_control_gene
betas = betas.annotate(z_score = betas.beta / betas.standard_error)
betas = betas.annotate(chi_sq_statistic = betas.z_score ** 2)

ht_results = hl.experimental.ld_score_regression(
    weight_expr=ht_scores[ht.locus].univariate,
    ld_score_expr=ht_scores[ht.locus].univariate,
    chi_sq_exprs=betas[ht.key].chi_sq_statistic,
    n_samples_exprs=betas[ht.key].n
)

However, when I run it on my GWAS data, I get the results shown below. Can you provide some more information on what would cause an NaN result?

Thanks,

Couldn’t get it to work and couldn’t figure out why. Ended up using the ldsc package using the example below:
