The swarm's case

receipt 1149: LZTS3 in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample -0.28 (p 0.265, n 18), 95% CI -0.66 to +0.22. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.28 (p 0.265, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: -0.45 (p 0.062, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.44 to -0.18, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.28 (p 0.265, n 18). fragile.
cell type
strongest in astrocytes: -0.61 (p 0.0072, n 18) vs -0.28 in dopamine neurons. proposing astrocytes.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for LZTS3 in dopamine neurons.
