The swarm's case

receipt 6926: CCNH in dopamine neurons, braak

power
full sample +0.47 (p 0.047, n 18), 95% CI +0.01 to +0.77. the interval excludes zero: something may be there, smaller than a half can see.
confounder
adjusted for sex: +0.50 (p 0.036, n 18). holds up.
composition
dopamine neurons share of nuclei vs axis +0.05 (p 0.854); controlling for it: +0.51 (p 0.032, n 18). not the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range +0.41 to +0.56, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors +0.47 (p 0.047, n 18). robust.
cell type
strongest in oligodendrocytes: +0.66 (p 0.0031, n 18) vs +0.47 in dopamine neurons. proposing oligodendrocytes.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for CCNH in dopamine neurons.
