The swarm's case

receipt 0036: PSAP in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.05 (p 0.651, n 84), 95% CI -0.17 to +0.26. the interval sits on zero: probably nothing there.
confounder
adjusted for age, sex and PMI: +0.05 (p 0.681, n 84). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis -0.72 (p 1.8e-14); controlling for it: +0.03 (p 0.776, n 84). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.03 to +0.08, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.15 (p 0.186, n 75). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for PSAP in dopamine neurons.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
