Swarm cases

receipt 16222: LPGAT1 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample -0.15 (p 0.546, n 18), 95% CI -0.58 to +0.34. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.18 (p 0.482, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: -0.19 (p 0.455, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.30 to -0.06, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.15 (p 0.546, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for LPGAT1 in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.

composition
oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: +0.27 (p 0.277, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.01 to +0.24, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.12 (p 0.627, n 18). fragile.
cell type
