to determine whether C is part of the mechanism by which A contributes to B. Biologists use convergency and consistency amongst these experiments to judge the strength of any causal assertion. Therefore, in research maps convergency and consistency amongst results increases the score assigned to each edge, while contradictory results have the opposite effect. By selecting any one edge in a particular research map, users can be directed to the exact experiments and associated research papers represented by that edge. Of course, there is much more to researchmaps, but this gives you a sense of what these maps are all about.
