The swarm's case

receipt 12653: AK5 in oligodendrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.09 (p 0.709, n 18), 95% CI -0.39 to +0.54. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.08 (p 0.754, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: +0.06 (p 0.800, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.02 to +0.23, sign flips 2; without severely affected donors +0.09 (p 0.709, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for AK5 in oligodendrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
