The swarm's case
receipt 4113: GPRIN3 in microglia, braak
- power
- full sample +0.50 (p 0.034, n 18), 95% CI +0.04 to +0.78. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: +0.54 (p 0.021, n 18). holds up.
- composition
- microglia share of nuclei vs axis -0.11 (p 0.652); controlling for it: +0.54 (p 0.021, n 18). not the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range +0.43 to +0.57, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.50 (p 0.034, n 18). robust.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for GPRIN3 in microglia.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
