The swarm's case
receipt 14599: FKBP15 in microglia, 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: +0.11 (p 0.664, n 18). does not hold up.
- composition
- microglia share of nuclei vs axis -0.11 (p 0.652); controlling for it: +0.09 (p 0.722, n 18). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.03 to +0.22, 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 FKBP15 in microglia.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
