The swarm's case
receipt 0069: GRIN2C in astrocytes, resilience
- power
- full sample +0.10 (p 0.628, n 55), 95% CI -0.17 to +0.35. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
- confounder
- adjusted for age, sex and PMI: +0.10 (p 0.628, n 55). does not hold up.
- composition
- astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.34 (p 0.084); controlling for it: +0.07 (p 0.736, n 55). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range +0.01 to +0.19, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.09 (p 0.671, n 46). fragile.
- cell type
- no other cell group does better.
- axis
- no measure beats "differs in resilient donors (Lewy pathology, no parkinsonism)" for GRIN2C in astrocytes.
case closed: nothing better to follow up.
