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.

Q: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are believed to play an essential role in cancer initiation and development. However, little research has been undertaken to evaluate the role of CAFs in endometrial cancer (EC) progression. We aim to detect the functional contributions of CAFs to promote progression of EC.', 'Stromal fibroblasts were isolated from endometrioid adenocarcinomas and normal endometrial tissues. The conditioned media of cultured CAFs and normal fibroblasts (NFs) were collected to detect the level of stromal cell-derived factor-1alpha (SDF-1α), macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), migration inhibitory factor (MIF), colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1), and interleukin-1 (IL-1) by ELISA. The CAFs or NFs were cocultured with EC cell lines to determine the proliferation, migration, and invasion by MTT assays and transwell chambers. Xenograft models were used to observe tumor growth. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 activity was evaluated by zymography. AMD3100 (a chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) antagonist) was used to block the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis. Neutralizing antibodies were used to detect PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk pathways by western blotting. SDF-1α and CXCR4 expressions were analyzed in xenotransplanted tumors and 348 cases by immunohistochemistry.', 'CAFs promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion as well as in vivo tumorigenesis of admixed EC cells significantly more than NFs by secreting SDF-1α. These effects were significantly inhibited by AMD3100. CAFs promoted EC progression via the SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis to activate the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk signalings in a paracrine-dependent manner or increase MMP-2 and MMP-9 secretion in an autocrine-dependent manner. SDF-1α and CXCR4 expression upregulation accompanied clinical EC development and progression. High SDF-1α expression levels were associated with deep myometrial invasion, lymph node metastasis, and poor prognosis in EC.

Q: Epinephrine is a component of all resuscitation algorithms. Vasopressin is a pulmonary vasodilator and systemic vasopressor. We investigated the effect of epinephrine vs. vasopressin on survival and hemodynamics after neonatal porcine cardiac arrest (CA).', 'A 4-min asphyxial CA was induced, after which cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was commenced. Animals were randomized to low- (LDE: 0.01 mg/kg) or high-dose epinephrine (HDE: 0.03 mg/kg), low- (LDV: 0.2 U/kg) or high-dose vasopressin (HDV: 0.4 U/kg), or control (saline). Clinical and echocardiography indexes were monitored.', 'Sixty-nine animals were randomized. Survival was greater in HDV (n = 8 (89%); P < 0.05 ANOVA) vs. control (n = 7 (43%)) and LDE (n = 5 (36%)) but not vs. HDE (n = 7 (64%)) or LDV (n = 6 (75%)). Animals resuscitated with LDE required more shocks (2.5 (interquartile range: 2-6); P < 0.05) and higher doses of energy (15 J (interquartile range: 10-20); P < 0.05). Left ventricular output was comparable between groups, but a greater increase in superior vena caval flow was seen after HDV (P < 0.001 vs. control, LDE, and HDE). Plasma troponin was greatest in the HDE group (P < 0.05 vs. control and HDV).

Q: We aimed to select true groove pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (GPDACs) and define their specific features.', 'We performed histopathologic and immunohistochemical comparisons of 6 GPDACs with 6 duodenal adenocarcinomas (DACs) and 24 conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (cPDACs). Both groups were adjusted to ensure similar mean tumor size.', 'Representative loupe image showed prominent duodenal invasion and slight pancreatic invasion. Groove pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas exhibited different mucins and cytokeratin profiles in DACs, but cPDACs and small branch pancreatic ducts had the same profiles. Histopathologic analysis of GPDACs showed a significantly higher incidence of duodenal invasion and well differentiation than cPDACs, although the incidences of lymph node metastasis, angiolymphatic invasion, and neural invasion were similar. Immunohistochemical analysis of GPDACs showed a significantly lower frequency of abnormal Smad4 immunolabeling, and fewer GPDAC samples exhibited abnormal immunolabeling for MUC1, p16, Smad4, and p53 than cPDACs.
