The swarm's case
receipt 7595: HSPA1L in microglia, braak
- power
- full sample -0.53 (p 0.022, n 18), 95% CI -0.80 to -0.09. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: -0.52 (p 0.028, n 18). holds up.
- composition
- microglia share of nuclei vs axis -0.11 (p 0.652); controlling for it: -0.44 (p 0.069, n 18). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.61 to -0.47, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.53 (p 0.022, n 18). robust.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for HSPA1L in microglia.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
