The swarm's case
receipt 14171: CABLES1 in astrocytes, braak
- power
- full sample -0.18 (p 0.482, n 18), 95% CI -0.59 to +0.32. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: -0.22 (p 0.384, n 18). does not hold up.
- composition
- astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: -0.07 (p 0.787, n 18). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.35 to -0.12, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.18 (p 0.482, n 18). fragile.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for CABLES1 in astrocytes.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
