TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.
PROBLEM: Context: Animal data show that low protein intake in pregnancy programs higher offspring blood pressure, but similar data in humans are limited. We examined the associations of first and second trimester maternal protein intake with offspring blood pressure (BP) at the age of six months.', 'In a prospective US cohort study, called Project Viva, pregnant women completed validated semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaires (FFQ) to measure gestational protein intake. Among 947 mother-offspring pairs with first trimester dietary data and 910 pairs with second trimester data, we measured systolic blood pressure (SBP) up to five times with an automated device in the offspring at the age of six months. Controlling for blood pressure measurement conditions, maternal and infant characteristics, we examined the effect of energy-adjusted maternal protein intake on infant SBP using multivariable mixed effects models.', 'Mean daily second trimester maternal protein intake was 17.6% of energy (mean 2111 kcal/day). First trimester nutrient intakes were similar. Mean SBP at age 6 months was 90.0 mm Hg (SD 12.9). Consistent with prior reports, adjusted SBP was 1.94 mm Hg lower [95% confidence interval (CI) -3.45 to -0.42] for each kg increase in birth weight. However, we did not find an association between maternal protein intake and infant SBP. After adjusting for covariates, the effect estimates were 0.14 mm Hg (95% CI 20.12 to 20.40) for a 1% increase in energy from protein during the second trimester, and 20.01 mm Hg (95% CI 20.24 to -0.23) for a 1% increase in energy from protein in the first trimester.\Question: Is maternal protein intake associated with infant blood pressure?

SOLUTION: Variation in maternal total protein intake during pregnancy does not appear to program offspring blood pressure.

PROBLEM: Context: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex process that increasing evidence has demonstrated that reactive oxygen species contribute to brain injury. Revesterol (RVT), which exhibits significant antioxidant properties, is neuroprotective against excitotoxicity, ischemia, and hypoxia. Our aim was to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of RVT on the hippocampus in a rat model of TBI.', "Seven rats were divided into four. A moderate degree of head trauma was induced using Feeney's falling weight technique. Group1 (control) underwent no intervention. Head trauma was induced in the Group 2 (trauma) and, no drug was administered. Head trauma was induced in the Group 3 rats and low-dose RVT (50 mg/kg per day) was injected and in the fourth group, high-dose RVT (100 mg/kg per day) was used. Brain tissues were extracted immediately after perfusion without damaging the tissues. Histopathological and biochemistry parameters were studied.", 'Brain tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the trauma group were significantly higher than those in the control, low-dose RVT-treated, and high-dose-RVT-treated groups. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in the control group were significantly higher than those in the trauma, low-dose RVT-treated, and high-dose RVT-treated groups. Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels in the control group were significantly higher than those in the trauma and low-dose RVT-treated groups. The level of oxidative DNA damage (8-OHdG/106 dG) in the trauma group was higher than that in the control group, low-dose RVT-treated, and high-dose RVT-treated groups.\Question: Does rESVERATROL TREATMENT prevent HIPPOCAMAL NEURODEGENERATION IN A RODENT MODEL OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY?

SOLUTION: Our results demonstrated that RVT had a healing effect on neurons after TBI.

PROBLEM: Context: RECQ helicase family members act as guardians of the genome to assure proper DNA metabolism in response to genotoxic stress. Hematological malignancies are characterized by genomic instability that is possibly related to underlying defects in DNA repair of genomic stability maintenance.', 'We have investigated the expression of RECQ helicases in different hematological malignancies and in their normal counterparts using publicly available gene expression data. Furthermore, we explored whether RECQ helicases expression could be associated with tumor progression and prognosis.', 'Expression of at least one RECQ helicase family member was found significantly deregulated in all hematological malignancies investigated when compared to their normal counterparts. In addition, RECQ helicase expression was associated with a prognostic value in acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.\Question: Are rECQ helicases deregulated in hematological malignancies in association with a prognostic value?

SOLUTION:
RECQ helicase expression is deregulated in hematological malignancies compared to their normal counterparts in association with a prognostic value. Deregulation of RECQ helicases appears to play a role in tumorigenesis and represent potent therapeutic targets for synthetic lethal approaches in hematological malignancies.
