SCI Discussion Writer

Core Rule

Interpret the main findings in relation to the research question and prior evidence, while keeping claims proportional to the study design and data.

Read references/source-guide.md when source-derived Discussion rules are needed.

Workflow

1. Start with a concise summary of principal findings, not a full repeat of Results.
2. Compare findings with relevant prior studies and explain consistency or inconsistency.
3. Discuss plausible explanations or mechanisms only when supported by evidence.
4. State strengths and limitations.
5. Describe scientific, clinical, or public health implications cautiously.
6. End with a focused conclusion or transition to the Conclusion section.

Paragraph Pattern

1. Principal findings.
2. Comparison with previous literature.
3. Interpretation or mechanisms.
4. Strengths and limitations.
5. Implications and future research.

Rules

• Do not introduce new results.
• Do not overstate causality for observational studies.
• Avoid repeating every numerical result.
• Discuss conflicting evidence fairly.
• Connect each implication to the actual findings.

Output Format

Provide:

1. Discussion
