Swarm cases

receipt 11017: TIMM23B in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.41 (p 0.087, n 18), 95% CI -0.07 to +0.74. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.37 (p 0.127, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.37 (p 0.127, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.34 to +0.53, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.41 (p 0.087, n 18). robust.
cell type
strongest in OPCs: +0.68 (p 0.0018, n 18) vs +0.41 in dopamine neurons. proposing OPCs.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for TIMM23B in dopamine neurons.

follow-up registered; not confirmed in substantia nigra, an independent cohort.

receipt 11016: TIMM23B in microglia, 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: -0.34 (p 0.164, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
microglia share of nuclei vs axis -0.11 (p 0.652); controlling for it: -0.32 (p 0.201, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.48 to -0.26, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.36 (p 0.140, n 18). fragile.
cell type
strongest in OPCs: +0.68 (p 0.0018, n 18) vs -0.36 in microglia. proposing OPCs.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for TIMM23B in microglia.
