Quantum error-correction codes (QECCs) are a vital ingredient of quantum computation and communication systems. In that context it is highly desirable to design QECCs that can be represented by graphical models which possess a structure that enables efficient and close-to-optimal iterative decoding. In this paper we focus on stabilizer QECCs, a class of QECCs whose construction is rendered non-trivial by the fact that the stabilizer label code, a code that is associated with a stabilizer QECC, has to satisfy a certain self-orthogonality condition. In order to design graphical models of stabilizer label codes that satisfy this condition, we extend a duality result for Forney-style factor graphs (FFGs) to the stabilizer label code framework. This allows us to formulate a simple FFG design rule for constructing stabilizer label codes, a design rule that unifies several earlier stabilizer label code constructions.
