The swarm's case
receipt 0058: MYO5A in oligodendrocytes, braak
- power
- full sample +0.02 (p 0.860, n 84), 95% CI -0.20 to +0.23. the interval sits on zero: probably nothing there.
- confounder
- adjusted for age, sex and PMI: +0.04 (p 0.692, n 84). does not hold up.
- composition
- oligodendrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.09 (p 0.422); controlling for it: +0.01 (p 0.938, n 84). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.01 to +0.05, sign flips 5; without severely affected donors -0.07 (p 0.538, n 75). fragile.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for MYO5A in oligodendrocytes.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
