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]: Inflammatory mediators released by nonparenchymal inflammatory cells in the liver have been implicated in the progression of acetaminophen (APAP) hepatotoxicity. Among hepatic nonparenchymal inflammatory cells, we examined the role of the abundant natural killer (NK) cells and NK cells with T-cell receptors (NKT cells) in APAP-induced liver injury.', 'C57BL/6 mice were administered a toxic dose of APAP intraperitoneally to cause liver injury with or without depletion of NK and NKT cells by anti-NK1.1 monoclonal antibody (MAb). Serum alanine transaminase (ALT) levels, liver histology, hepatic leukocyte accumulation, and cytokine/chemokine expression were assessed.', 'Compared with APAP-treated control mice, depletion of both NK and NKT cells by anti-NK1.1 significantly protected mice from APAP-induced liver injury, as evidenced by decreased serum ALT level, improved survival of mice, decreased hepatic necrosis, inhibition of messenger RNA (mRNA) expression for interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), Fas ligand (FasL), and chemokines including KC (Keratinocyte-derived chemokine); MIP-1 alpha (macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha); MCP-1 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1); IP-10 (interferon-inducible protein); Mig (monokine induced by IFN-gamma) and decreased neutrophil accumulation in the liver. Hepatic NK and NKT cells were identified as the major source of IFN-gamma by intracellular cytokine staining. APAP induced much less liver injury in Fas-deficient (lpr) and FasL-deficient (gld) mice compared with that in wild-type mice.

[Q]: To determine whether recent reimbursement cuts have resulted in a shift of outpatient MRI from private offices to hospital outpatient departments (HOPDs); and to study office MRI utilization trends among radiologists and other specialists.', 'The Medicare Part B Physician/Supplier Procedure Summary Master Files were used. MRI codes were aggregated, and total MRI volumes from 2002 to 2012 were studied. Medicare place-of-service codes were used to identify studies performed in private offices and HOPDs and create trend lines. Specialty codes were used to categorize private office MRI users as radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, other physicians, and independent diagnostic testing facilities.', 'Medicare office and HOPD utilization of MRI (all specialties) rose rapidly from 2002 to 2006, reaching 2,727,807 in offices and 2,355,641 in HOPDs. Thereafter, office volume steadily declined, whereas HOPD volume steadily increased. By 2012, more studies were done in HOPDs than in offices. Over the entire period from 2002 and 2012, office MRI volume among radiologists increased 27%, compared with 216% among orthopedic surgeons and 124% among other physicians.
[A]: Do trends in outpatient MRI seem to reflect recent reimbursement cuts?


[Q]: Total hip replacement (THR) outcomes have been worse for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared with those who have osteoarthritis (OA). Whether this remains true in contemporary patients with RA with a high use of disease-modifying and biologic therapy is unknown. The purpose of our study is to assess pain, function, and quality of life 2 years after primary THR, comparing patients with RA and patients with OA.', 'Baseline and 2-year data were compared between validated patients with RA and patients with OA who were enrolled in a single-center THR registry between May 1, 2007, and February 25, 2011.', 'There were 5666 eligible primary THR identified, of which 193 were for RA. RA THR had worse baseline Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain (44.8 vs 53.2, p < 0.001) and function (38.7 vs 49.9, p < 0.001) compared with OA. These differences remained after surgery: pain (88.4 vs 94.0, p < 0.001) and function (82.9 vs 91.8, p < 0.001). Patients with RA were as likely to have a significant improvement as patients with OA (Δ WOMAC > 10) in pain (94% vs 96%, p = 0.35) and function (95% vs 94%, p = 0.69), but were 4 times as likely to have worse function (WOMAC ≤ 60; 19% vs 4%, p < 0.001) and pain (12% vs 3%, p < 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression controlling for multiple potential confounders, RA increased the odds of poor postoperative function (OR 4.32, 95% CI 1.57-11.9), and in patients without a previous primary THR, worse postoperative pain (OR 3.17, 95% CI 1.06-9.53).
