question:
Context: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of CALPAIN-5 (CAPN5) gene in PCOS susceptibility.', 'We analysed four intronic polymorphisms of the CAPN5 gene in 148 well-characterized women with PCOS and 606 unrelated controls. We performed a case-control study and an intracohort analysis of clinical characteristics associated with PCOS.', 'Analysis of haplotypes distribution between PCOS population compared to controls showed a strong deviation (P = 0.00029). The haplotypes GGCA and GGTG were overrepresented in PCOS patients (P = 0.009 and P = 0.001, respectively). In addition, we identified several CAPN5 haplotypes associated with phenotypic differences observed between PCOS patients, such as the presence of obesity (P = 0.02), cardiovascular complications (P = 0.02), familial antecedents of obesity (P = 0.003) and of hypertension (P = 0.007) and type 2 diabetes mellitus aggregation (P = 0.04).
Answer: These results suggest a role of CAPN5 gene in PCOS susceptibility in humans. Moreover, novel candidate risk alleles have been identified, within CAPN5 gene, which could be associated with important phenotypic and prognosis differences observed in PCOS patients.
answer:
Are specific haplotypes of the CALPAIN-5 gene associated with polycystic ovary syndrome?


question:
Context: Objective analysis of surgical skill is necessary. A novel method of assessment using simple error analysis in synthetic models is examined for construct validity.', 'Two examination protocols were devised using synthetic models. These contained either a purpose made error or were representative of good surgical practice. Protocol one contained models of skin closure and minor operations. Protocol two in addition more complex procedures. Face validity was established by the approval of senior surgeons. Junior surgeons were recruited to undertake the assessment. A p value of less than 0.05 was deemed to be significant.', 'Eighty-nine surgeons were recruited. Both protocol one and two were able to discriminate between groups at statistically significant levels.
Answer: Construct validity has been established by showing that error analysis is able to distinguish surgeons with varying levels of experience.
answer:
Is the surgical error examination a novel method for objective technical knowledge assessment?


question:
Context: Apart from surgery, treatment of rectal cancer increasingly involves the use of (neo-)adjuvant strategies. To optimize the selection process for these therapy regimens, especially in the field of cellular and molecular biology, new prognostic factors additional to the established TNM system are being investigated.', 'Two groups of patients ( n=2x85) with rectal carcinoma curatively treated by surgery alone were studied retrospectively (median follow-up 6.1 years). To exclude the effect of the surgeon only patients free of locally recurrent disease were selected. Patient groups were matched for age, gender, UICC stage, and year of operation (1982-1991) and differed only in subsequent metachronous distant metastatic spread, i.e., the criterion to be studied. The factors investigated in uni- and multivariate analysis were angiogenesis, density of dendritic cells, grading, venous invasion, and lymphatic invasion.', 'Grading invariably proved to be the only significant prognostic factor. In univariate analysis the absence of venous invasion was also correlated significantly with increased disease-free survival.
Answer: Angiogenesis and dendritic cell density are not prognostic factors for metachronous distant metastasis in rectal cancer and therefore cannot serve as selection parameters for adjuvant therapy.
answer:

Are angiogenesis and dendritic cell density correlated with metachronous distant metastasis in curatively operated rectal cancer?
