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.

Question: Is terlipressin more effective in decreasing variceal pressure than portal pressure in cirrhotic patients?
Answer: Our results demonstrate that terlipressin produces significant and prolonged decreases in variceal pressure and variceal wall tension and has intrinsic effects on portal pressure and systemic hemodynamics. Variceal pressure provides a better assessment of the effects of terlipressin administration on esophageal varices than hepatic venous pressure gradient.
yes

Question: Is high salt intake associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events : a 7.2-year evaluation of a cohort of hypertensive patients?
Answer: In a cohort of hypertensive patients, high salt intake independently predicts the occurrence of CV events, particularly of stroke.
yes

Question: Is vEGF-C expression a prognostic factor in locally advanced colon adenocarcinoma?
Answer: The study results indicate that expression of VEGF-C in cells of locally advanced pT3-4 adenocarcinoma of the colon does not affect the survival time of the patients. Increased expression of VEGF-C is accompanied by a significant increase in vessel density in the pT3-4 tumour stroma. Increased expression of VEGF-C in cancer cells is related to the tumour location in the left side of the colon and better tumour differentiation.

no
