The swarm's case

receipt 16059: ADCY8 in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.64 (p 0.0044, n 18), 95% CI +0.24 to +0.85. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.64 (p 0.0040, n 18). holds up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.64 (p 0.0040, n 18). not the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.59 to +0.73, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.64 (p 0.0044, n 18). robust.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for ADCY8 in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
