Swarm cases

receipt 2242: ANTXR2 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.49 (p 0.039, n 18), 95% CI +0.03 to +0.78. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.46 (p 0.057, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.47 (p 0.051, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.42 to +0.62, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.49 (p 0.039, n 18). robust.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for ANTXR2 in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
