Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.

It has been suggested that genes related to Amerindian ancestry account for the high prevalence of gallstone disease (GD) observed in Mexican-Americans. The HLA-B39 is an allele found in higher frequency in Amerindians whereas HLA-B15 is rarely found. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that gallstone susceptibility genes are more prevalent in Mexicans with recent Amerindian ancestry.', 'We carried out a prospective case-controlled study. Subjects were divided into those who had stones visible on gallbladder ultrasound (cases), and those whose ultrasounds were negative for gallstones (controls). Body mass index (BMI) was calculated, and serum lipids and lipoprotein, and glucose levels were measured. Class I HLA (HLA-B) typing was performed by PCR amplification of genomic DNA.', 'Of the 1,101 subjects, 146 were classified as subjects with GD (cases) and 955 as subjects without GD (controls). Mean age of the cases was 53.5 +/- 12.5 yr versus 44.78 +/- 12.0 yr for the controls, p= 0.001. A family history of GD was observed in 48% of the cases versus 28.4% of the controls, p= 0.001. HLA-B39 was more frequently increased in GD subjects (0.162), compared with controls (0.063), p= 0.008. The odds ratio of having HLA-B39 was 2.8 and 95% (CI 95%= 1.3-6.3) for GD; HLA-B15 was more frequently increased in controls than in cases.

Abnormalities of lung coagulation and fibrinolysis in sarcoidosis are thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease.', 'We previously showed that bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) D dimer directly correlated with various measures of severity in sarcoidosis. Here, we analyze our observation that BALF D dimer was more frequently found at higher levels in African-American patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis.', 'BALF D dimer was measured in 55 subjects with pulmonary sarcoidosis and 31 healthy volunteers by enzyme immunoassay. The healthy group established a normal range of BALF D dimer with 71 ng/ml as the highest measured level. This was the cut point for comparisons among the patients with sarcoidosis.', 'High BALF D dimer levels (>71 ng/ml) were found in younger patients with sarcoidosis and were associated with a significantly lower percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s and greater numbers of BAL lymphocytes. Black patients with sarcoidosis had higher BALF D dimer levels (median 131, range 0-2,040 ng/ml) than white patients (median 18, range 0-605 ng/ml; p = 0.011). Higher than normal BALF D dimer levels were found in 61% of the black subjects with sarcoidosis, but in only 20% of the white individuals (chi(2) = 5.539, p = 0.019). BALF D dimer was the only disease measure that discriminated black from white individuals with sarcoidosis.

To identify the risk factors for suboptimal response to GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) trigger and evaluate the effect of hCG on the outcome of patients with suboptimal response to GnRH-a.', 'A retrospective data analysis.', 'A tertiary-care academic medical center.', 'A total of 8,092 women undergoing 8,970 IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment cycles.', 'All women underwent hMG + medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA)/P treatment cycles during IVF/ICSI, which were triggered using a GnRH-a alone or in combination with hCG (1,000, 2,000, or 5,000 IU). Viable embryos were cryopreserved for later transfer.', 'The rates of oocyte retrieval, mature oocytes, fertilization, and the number of oocytes retrieved, mature oocytes, and embryos frozen.', 'In total, 2.71% (243/8,970) of patients exhibited a suboptimal response to GnRH-a. The suboptimal responders (LH ≤15 mIU/mL) had a significantly lower oocyte retrieval rate (48.16% vs. 68.26%), fewer mature oocytes (4.10 vs. 8.29), and fewer frozen embryos (2.32 vs. 3.54) than the appropriate responders. Basal LH levels served as the single most valuable marker for differentiating suboptimal responders with the areas under the receiver operating curve of 0.805. Administering dual trigger (GnRH-a and hCG 1,000, 2,000, 5,000 IU) significantly increased oocyte retrieval rates (60.04% vs. 48.16%; 68.13% vs. 48.16%; and 65.76% vs. 48.16%, respectively) in patients with a suboptimal response.
