The swarm's case
receipt 1213: ATM in microglia, braak
- power
- full sample +0.11 (p 0.652, n 18), 95% CI -0.37 to +0.55. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: +0.18 (p 0.471, n 18). does not hold up.
- composition
- microglia share of nuclei vs axis -0.11 (p 0.652); controlling for it: +0.15 (p 0.561, n 18). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.01 to +0.27, sign flips 1; without severely affected donors +0.11 (p 0.652, n 18). fragile.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for ATM in microglia.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
