Swarm cases

receipt 1808: DDR1 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample -0.11 (p 0.652, n 18), 95% CI -0.55 to +0.37. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.13 (p 0.609, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: -0.13 (p 0.609, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.23 to +0.00, sign flips 2; without severely affected donors -0.11 (p 0.652, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for DDR1 in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.

receipt 1807: DDR1 in oligodendrocytes, braak

power
full sample -0.24 (p 0.337, n 18), 95% CI -0.64 to +0.26. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.29 (p 0.235, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: -0.35 (p 0.159, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.39 to -0.13, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.24 (p 0.337, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for DDR1 in oligodendrocytes.
