Swarm cases

receipt 6938: NAA11 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.39 (p 0.107, n 18), 95% CI -0.09 to +0.73. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.37 (p 0.135, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.42 (p 0.086, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.32 to +0.51, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.39 (p 0.107, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for NAA11 in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.

receipt 6937: NAA11 in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.17 (p 0.509, n 18), 95% CI -0.33 to +0.59. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.15 (p 0.555, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.13 (p 0.597, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.04 to +0.33, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.17 (p 0.509, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for NAA11 in astrocytes.
