The swarm's case

receipt 14128: ST6GAL2 in oligodendrocytes, braak

power
full sample -0.09 (p 0.715, n 18), 95% CI -0.54 to +0.39. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.13 (p 0.609, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: -0.14 (p 0.573, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.19 to +0.02, sign flips 3; without severely affected donors -0.09 (p 0.715, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for ST6GAL2 in oligodendrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
