Swarm cases

receipt 12626: RYR3 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.32 (p 0.201, n 18), 95% CI -0.18 to +0.68. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.33 (p 0.179, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.36 (p 0.148, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.22 to +0.42, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.32 (p 0.201, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for RYR3 in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.

receipt 12625: RYR3 in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.42 (p 0.080, n 18), 95% CI -0.05 to +0.74. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.42 (p 0.080, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.44 (p 0.067, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.34 to +0.56, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.42 (p 0.080, n 18). robust.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for RYR3 in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
