receipt 11119: KIAA0319L in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.01 (p 0.969, n 18), 95% CI -0.46 to +0.47. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.00 (p 0.990, n 18). does not hold up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.03 (p 0.901, n 18). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.11 to +0.14, sign flips 7; without severely affected donors +0.01 (p 0.969, n 18). fragile.
cell type
strongest in oligodendrocytes: -0.67 (p 0.0022, n 18) vs +0.01 in dopamine neurons. proposing oligodendrocytes.
