Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

[Q]: The objective of this study was to compare health-related quality of life (HR-QoL), disability/work productivity, and health care utilization in a variety of medical disorders with and without comorbid major depressive disorder (MDD) in the general population.', 'Twelve-month MDD (Composite International Diagnostic Interview) diagnosis was determined among 4181 participants from a community sample. Medical diagnoses (respiratory, cardiovascular, allergic, endocrine/metabolic, gastrointestinal, and neurological diseases) were made after medical examination. HR-QoL was evaluated with the MOS-SF-36. Outpatient doctor visits and disability/work productivity were assessed by self-report.', 'Comorbid MDD was associated with a lower SF-36 mental summary score in all medical diagnoses and with a lower physical summary score in comorbid allergic and neurological disorders. The number of coexisting medical disorders was strongly related to lower physical and mental summary scores in cases without comorbid depression. The number of outpatient doctor visits increased by 42% when any of the medical disorders without comorbid MDD was present, and comorbid MDD was associated with a further 24-42% increase, depending on the medical disorder. Comorbid MDD was strongly associated with lower full-time working status (37.1% with MDD vs. 51.0% without MDD) and with a significant increase in disability days (45%) in the presence of any medical disorder.

[Q]: The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene is located within the highly polymorphic major histocompatibility complex region, exhibiting the -308 GA promoter region polymorphism and six microsatellites (TNFa-f) spanning the region nearby the TNF locus.', 'In the present study, we evaluated the frequency of -308 GA and TNFa-e polymorphisms and respective haplotypes (in chromosomal sequence: TNFd-TNFe-308GA-TNFc-TNFa-TNFb), in 222 patients with AIDS, 52 of whom exhibited cytomegalovirus retinitis, and in 202 healthy HIV-negative individuals.', 'TNF microsatellite and single nucleotide polymorphism typings were performed by PCR followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.', 'The TNF-308A allele and the 4-3-G-2-7-1 haplotype were associated with susceptibility to AIDS, whereas the TNFb4 allele and the 3-3-G-1-11-4 haplotype were associated with protection against AIDS development. The TNFc2 allele and the 4-1-G-2-2-1 haplotype, which contains the TNFc2 allele, were associated with cytomegalovirus retinitis.

[Q]: Obesity has become a significant public health concern in the United States. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of obesity on postoperative complications after operative management of proximal humerus fractures by use of a national database.', 'Patients who underwent operative management of a proximal humerus fracture were identified in a national database by Current Procedural Terminology codes for procedures in patients with International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) codes for proximal humerus fracture, including (1) open reduction and internal fixation, (2) intramedullary nailing, (3) hemiarthroplasty, and (4) total shoulder arthroplasty. These groups were then divided into obese and nonobese cohorts by use of ICD-9 codes for obesity, morbid obesity, or body mass index >30. Each cohort was then assessed for local and systemic complications within 90 days and mortality within 2 years postoperatively. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated.', 'From 2005 to 2011, 20,319 patients who underwent operative management of proximal humerus fractures were identified, including 14,833 (73.0%) open reduction and internal fixation, 1368 (9.2%) intramedullary nail, 3391 (16.7%) hemiarthroplasty, and 727 (3.6%) shoulder arthroplasty. Overall, 3794 patients (18.7%) were coded as obese, morbidly obese, or body mass index >30. In each operative group, obesity was associated with a substantial increase in local and systemic complications.
