# Remove Extra Partial Correlations Options

## Description

When running the partial correlations feature against an entire dataset, the "Compute" element gives the following options, from which the user can select:

* Genetic Correlation, Pearson's r
* Genetic Correlation, Spearman's rho
* SGO Literature Correlation
* Tissue Correlation, Pearson's r
* Tissue Correlation, Spearman's rho

@robw was of the opinion that this is too much, and is entirely unnecessary, suggesting the provision of only two options:

* Pearson's r
* Spearman's rho

This will have corresponding changes in code to get rid of all the code dealing with the differences that were inherent in the former 5 options.

enable this simplification of the partial correlation options.
