The swarm's case

receipt 11423: KAT2A in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.44 (p 0.067, n 18), 95% CI -0.03 to +0.75. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.46 (p 0.056, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.42 (p 0.080, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.37 to +0.50, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.44 (p 0.067, n 18). robust.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for KAT2A in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
