The swarm's case

receipt 0444: LRP1 in oligodendrocytes, braak

power
full sample -0.51 (p 0.031, n 18), 95% CI -0.79 to -0.06. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
confounder
adjusted for sex: -0.49 (p 0.037, n 18). holds up.
composition
oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: -0.71 (p 0.0011, n 18). not the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.59 to -0.45, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.51 (p 0.031, n 18). robust.
cell type
strongest in dopamine neurons: -0.74 (p 5.0e-4, n 18) vs -0.51 in oligodendrocytes. proposing dopamine neurons.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for LRP1 in oligodendrocytes.
