Contradictory Triplets 1

Analysis of triple stability comes from a deep graph theoretic background. It identifies triangles within the graph that have logically inconsistent relations.

Separately Unstable Triplet
When both A positiveCorrelation B, B negativeCorrelation C, but C positiveCorrelation A.
Mutually Unstable Triplets
When both A negativeCorrelation B, B negativeCorrelation C, and C negativeCorrelation A.
Jens Contradictory Triplet
When A increases B, A decreases C, and C positiveCorrelation A.
Increase Mismatch Triplet
When A increases B, A increases C, and C negativeCorrelation A.
Decrease Mismatch Triplet
When A decreases B, A decreases C, and C negativeCorrelation A.
Type Node A Node B Node C
Jens p(HGNC:MAPT) p(HGNC:MAPT) p(HGNC:MAPT)

Causal Pathologies 11

Pathologies are more dogmatically the result of molecular and physical processes, and do not necessarily make sense as the subject of causal statements.
