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.
question:
Context: To test device integrity and objective auditory reaction for cochlear implant patients intraoperatively.', 'Our protocol for intraoperative testing of the implant device includes device electrode impedance test and neural response telemetry (NRT), which measures the electrically evoked auditory nerve compound action potentials (ECAP).', 'We completed electrode integrity tests and NRT intraoperatively on 40 patients with the Nucleus CI24M cochlear implant. We have measured normal implant function on all 40 patients and obtained ECAP results from 39 patients. Out of 33 patients with normal inner ear, typical ECAPs were recorded in 195 electrodes in all 198 testing electrodes(98.5%). In 7 patients with inner ear Mondini dysphasia, affirmative ECAP waveforms were recorded in 26 electrodes in all 42 testing electrodes. The basal electrode ECAP threshold was higher than that of the epical one.\Question: Do [ The intraoperative application of neural response telemetry with the nucleus CI24M cochlear implant ]?
answer:
The intraoperative measurements of device function and NRT are quite simple, quick and with high accuracy. Inner ear malformation is an important factor that may affect NRT results.


question:
Context: The expression of growth-associated protein 43 (GAP-43), a marker of axonal growth, in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons innervating the lumbar intervertebral disc was assessed using the retrograde tracing method and immunohistochemistry.', 'To study whether disc inflammation affects GAP-43 expression in DRG neurons innervating the disc in rats.', 'Persistent inflammation and nerve ingrowth into the inner layer of degenerated discs can be a cause of discogenic pain. Although the presence of GAP-43-expressing nerve fibers in painful discs has been reported, the expression of GAP-43 in DRG neurons innervating the disc has not been studied.', "Seven days after the application of Fluoro-Gold to the L5-L6 disc, 50 microL of saline (n = 10, control group) or complete Freund's adjuvant (n = 10, inflammatory group) was applied to the disc in rats. Ten days after the Fluoro-Gold application, T13-L5 DRGs were double-stained with GAP-43 and either calcitonin gene-related peptide or isolectin B4 (IB4).", 'The percentage of Fluoro-Gold-labeled neurons that were positive for GAP-43 was significantly higher in the inflammatory group (44%) than in the control group (24%, P < 0.001). In both groups, the majority of GAP-43-positive neurons were small and positive for calcitonin gene-related peptide but not IB4.\Question: Does disc inflammation potentially promote axonal regeneration of dorsal root ganglion neurons innervating lumbar intervertebral disc in rats?
answer:
The present results suggest that disc inflammation potentially promotes axonal growth of DRG neurons innervating the disc. In light of the strong correlation between the expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide and nerve growth factor receptor, it is most likely that nerve growth factor-sensitive DRG neurons extend their axons following disc inflammation.


question:
Context: Biotechnological screening processes are performed since more than 8 decades in small scale shaken bioreactors like shake flasks or microtiter plates. One of the major issues of such reactors is the sufficient oxygen supply of suspended microorganisms. Oxygen transfer into the bulk liquid can in general be increased by introducing suitable baffles at the reactor wall. However, a comprehensive and systematic characterization of baffled shaken bioreactors has never been carried out so far. Baffles often differ in number, size and shape. The exact geometry of baffles in glass lab ware like shake flasks is very difficult to reproduce from piece to piece due to the hard to control flow behavior of molten glass during manufacturing. Thus, reproducibility of the maximum oxygen transfer capacity in such baffled shake flasks is hardly given.', 'As a first step to systematically elucidate the general effect of different baffle geometries on shaken bioreactor performance, the maximum oxygen transfer capacity (OTRmax) in baffled 48-well microtiter plates as shaken model reactor was characterized. This type of bioreactor made of plastic material was chosen, as the exact geometry of the baffles can be fabricated by highly reproducible laser cutting. As a result, thirty different geometries were investigated regarding their maximum oxygen transfer capacity (OTRmax) and liquid distribution during shaking. The relative perimeter of the cross-section area as new fundamental geometric key parameter is introduced. An empirical correlation for the OTRmax as function of the relative perimeter, shaking frequency and filling volume is derived. For the first time, this correlation allows a systematic description of the maximum oxygen transfer capacity in baffled microtiter plates.\Question: Is cross-section perimeter a suitable parameter to describe the effects of different baffle geometries in shaken microtiter plates?
answer:

Calculated and experimentally determined OTRmax values agree within ± 30% accuracy. Furthermore, undesired out-of-phase operating conditions can be identified by using the relative perimeter as key parameter. Finally, an optimum well geometry characterized by an increased perimeter of 10% compared to the unbaffled round geometry is identified. This study may also assist to comprehensively describe and optimize the baffles of shake flasks in future.
