The swarm's case
receipt 8216: GNAI1 in oligodendrocytes, braak
- power
- full sample +0.61 (p 0.0069, n 18), 95% CI +0.20 to +0.84. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: +0.61 (p 0.0069, n 18). holds up.
- composition
- oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.03 (p 0.915); controlling for it: +0.73 (p 6.6e-4, n 18). not the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range +0.56 to +0.71, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.61 (p 0.0069, n 18). robust.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for GNAI1 in oligodendrocytes.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
