Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.

Input: Consider Input: A limited amount of literature suggests that plasma leptin concentrations are reduced with habitual physical activity in men and non-pregnant women. We investigated the relationship between maternal physical activity and plasma leptin during early pregnancy.', 'The study population included 879 normotensive, non-diabetic pregnant women who reported physical activity type, frequency, and duration in early pregnancy. Plasma leptin, measured in blood samples collected <16 weeks gestation, were determined using enzyme immunoassays. Weekly duration (h/week) and energy expended on recreational physical activity [metabolic equivalent score (MET)-h/week] were categorized by tertiles among active women. Physical activity intensity was categorized as none, moderate (<6 MET) and vigorous (> or =6 MET). Differences in leptin concentrations across categories were estimated using linear regression procedures.', 'Mean leptin was 5.8 ng/ml lower among active versus inactive women (P=0.001). Mean leptin was lower among women in the highest levels (>12.8 h/week) of time performing physical activity (-8.1 ng/ml, P<0.001) and energy expenditure (>70.4 MET-h/week) (-8.3 ng/ml, P=0.001) compared with inactive women. Leptin was inversely associated with the intensity of physical activity.

Input: Consider Input: The molecular basis to overcome therapeutic resistance to treat glioblastoma remains unclear. The anti-apoptotic b cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) gene is associated with treatment resistance, and is transactivated by the paired box transcription factor 8 (PAX8). In earlier studies, we demonstrated that increased PAX8 expression in glioma cell lines was associated with the expression of telomerase. In this current study, we more extensively explored a role for PAX8 in gliomagenesis.', 'PAX8 expression was measured in 156 gliomas including telomerase-negative tumours, those with the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) mechanism or with a non-defined telomere maintenance mechanism (NDTMM), using immunohistochemistry and quantitative PCR. We also tested the affect of PAX8 knockdown using siRNA in cell lines on cell survival and BCL2 expression.', 'Seventy-two percent of glioblastomas were PAX8-positive (80% telomerase, 73% NDTMM, and 44% ALT). The majority of the low-grade gliomas and normal brain cells were PAX8-negative. The suppression of PAX8 was associated with a reduction in both cell growth and BCL2, suggesting that a reduction in PAX8 expression would sensitise tumours to cell death.

Input: Consider Input: Previous studies have shown a relationship between intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery and coronary artery disease (CAD). The role of IMT in the prediction of significant CAD has not been established.', 'To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of IMT measurement and the detection of carotid plaques in relation to cardiovascular risk factors in the prediction of significant CAD.', 'One hundred and seventy patients (121 men and 49 women; average age 58 +/- 11 years) undergoing selective coronary angiography were examined by carotid ultrasound. IMT was measured. Plasma lipid concentrations and other risk factors were determined.', 'Angiographically proven significant CAD was found in 138 (81%) of all patients. Carotid plaques were detected in 98 (58%) of all patients. Presence of carotid plaques in common carotid artery (P<0.001) and male sex (P<0.005) were found to be categorical risk factors for significant CAD but in multiple regression analysis only age (P=0.15), IMT (P<0.01), high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (P=0.02) and, less significantly, total cholesterol (P=0.09) were found to be independent parameters for the prediction of significant CAD. IMT of 0.75 mm was determined as a cut-off point for the detection of significant CAD (sensitivity 78%, specificity 79%, positive predictive value 95%, negative predictive value 41%, odds ratio 12.9, 95% CI 3.5 to 47.6).
