The swarm's case
receipt 7627: C1R in astrocytes, braak
- power
- full sample -0.17 (p 0.498, n 18), 95% CI -0.59 to +0.32. the interval is wide: not enough donors to tell.
- confounder
- adjusted for sex: -0.17 (p 0.498, n 18). does not hold up.
- composition
- astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis -0.21 (p 0.413); controlling for it: -0.30 (p 0.221, n 18). could be the mix.
- skeptic
- leave-one-out range -0.32 to -0.06, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.17 (p 0.498, n 18). fragile.
- cell type
- strongest in oligodendrocytes: -0.59 (p 0.0092, n 18) vs -0.17 in astrocytes. proposing oligodendrocytes.
- axis
- no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for C1R in astrocytes.
