receipt 5245: DGKG in dopamine neurons, braak

power: full sample -0.16 (p 0.532, n 18), 95% CI -0.58 to +0.33. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder: adjusted for sex: -0.22 (p 0.389, n 18). does not hold up.
composition: dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: -0.33 (p 0.185, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic: leave-one-out range -0.26 to -0.04, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.16 (p 0.532, n 18). fragile.
cell type: no other cell group does better.
axis: no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for DGKG in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.

receipt 5244: DGKG in oligodendrocytes, braak

power: full sample -0.36 (p 0.140, n 18), 95% CI -0.71 to +0.13. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder: adjusted for sex: -0.31 (p 0.204, n 18). does not hold up.
composition: oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: -0.53 (p 0.023, n 18). not the mix.
skeptic: leave-one-out range -0.51 to -0.28, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.36 (p 0.140, n 18). fragile.
cell type: no other cell group does better.
axis: no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for DGKG in oligodendrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
