The swarm's case

receipt 9430: PHYHD1 in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample +0.33 (p 0.188, n 18), 95% CI -0.17 to +0.69. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.38 (p 0.116, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: +0.38 (p 0.123, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.22 to +0.47, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.33 (p 0.188, n 18). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for PHYHD1 in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
