The swarm's case

receipt 0099: ITPKB in astrocytes, braak

power
full sample -0.11 (p 0.302, n 84), 95% CI -0.32 to +0.10. the interval sits on zero: probably nothing there.
confounder
adjusted for age, sex and PMI: -0.05 (p 0.658, n 84). does not hold up.
composition
astrocytes share of nuclei vs axis +0.26 (p 0.016); controlling for it: -0.08 (p 0.486, n 84). could be the mix.
skeptic
leave-one-out range -0.15 to -0.09, sign flips 0; without severely affected donors -0.13 (p 0.269, n 75). fragile.
cell type
no other cell group does better.
axis
no measure beats "tracks Braak Lewy-body stage" for ITPKB in astrocytes.

case closed: nothing better to follow up.
