TASK DEFINITION: Given a passage with a question and an answer to that question, classify if the answer actually answers the question into 'yes' or 'no'. Output 'yes' if the answer answers the question and output 'no' if the answer does not answer the question.
PROBLEM: Question: Is galectin-3 independently associated with cardiovascular mortality in community-dwelling older adults without known cardiovascular disease : The Rancho Bernardo Study?
Answer: Higher levels of galectin-3 are independently associated with all-cause and CVD mortality among community-dwelling older adults with no known CVD at baseline.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Question: Are levels of soluble CD30 in cord blood and peripheral blood during childhood correlated with the development of atopic disease or a family history of atopy?
Answer: These findings indicate that the sCD30 concentration in cord blood is not a reliable prognostic indicator of, nor a useful diagnostic marker for, atopic disease in children up to 7 years of age. If such correlations do exist, they might be masked by age-dependent variations in the circulating levels of sCD30, which may reflect individual differences in the maturation of children's immunological responses.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Are cardiac repolarization and striatal dopamine transporter function interrelated?
Answer: This study suggests significant physiological QTc-DAT relation in young healthy adults. QTc interval measurements might carry diagnostically important information in clinical conditions, which have an effect on both striatal DAT binding and cardiac sympathetic function.

SOLUTION:
yes
