The swarm's case

receipt 14616: TNIK in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.15 (p 0.549, n 18), 95% CI -0.34 to +0.58. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.11 (p 0.658, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.21 (p 0.393, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.05 to +0.27, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.15 (p 0.549, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for TNIK in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
