Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

Question: This study investigated whether a 7-week yoga intervention could improve physical function, perceived stress, and mental/emotional wellness in elderly participants.', '8 participants (66.5\xa0±\xa00.3 years) attended 2 60-min Hatha yoga sessions/week for 7 weeks, and performed pre- and post-intervention assessments. Balance was assessed using a 5-test battery. Flexibility was measured by sit-and-reach and shoulder flexibility tests. Functional mobility tests included 8-ft up-and-go, 5 chair stands, and 4-m walk. Participants completed SF-12, exhaustion level, and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) questionnaires.', 'SF-12 Mental Component Summary scores, exhaustion levels, and PSS scores improved post-intervention. No differences were found for physical function measures.

Answer: Does yoga reduce perceived stress and exhaustion levels in healthy elderly individuals?


Question: Transplanted cell survival might greatly improve the therapeutic efficacy of cell therapy. Diazoxide (DZ), a highly selective mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener, is known to suppress cell apoptosis and protect cells in oxidative stressed ischemic environment. We explored the mechanisms involved in DZ pre-treatment-induced anti-apoptotic effect on L6 skeletal myoblast (SKM).', 'L6 SKMs were divided into control group, H2O2 group, DZ\xa0+\xa0H2O2 group and DZ\xa0+\xa0LY\xa0+\xa0H2O2 group. Treatments of 400\xa0μmol/L H2O2 for 24\xa0h alone, or after 200\xa0μmol/L DZ pre-treatment for 30\xa0min, or after DZ and 50\xa0μmol/L LY294002 co-administration for 30\xa0min were performed. The cell apoptosis rates were assessed by flow cytometric analysis. The changes of mitochondrial membrane potential were determined by JC-1 mitochondrial staining. The activation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt, caspase-9 and caspase-3 was detected by western blot.', 'Compared with the H2O2 group, DZ pre-treatment protected cells from H2O2-induced damage, increased Akt phosphorylation, prevented mitochondrial membrane depolarization as well as the activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 and decreased the cell apoptosis rate. However, the DZ-induced cytoprotective and anti-apoptosis effects were partly inhibited by co-administration of a PI3K inhibitor, LY294002.

Answer: Does diazoxide protect L6 skeletal myoblasts from H2O2-induced apoptosis via the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/Akt pathway?


Question: Erythromycin has been found to be a gastrointestinal prokinetic agent of hypertonic liquids, while acute hyperglycemia has been associated with delayed gastric emptying in diabetic patients.', 'To investigate whether hyperglycemia, per se, reduces gastric motility during erythromycin-induced acceleration on gastric emptying of hypertonic liquids in diabetic patients.', 'In 12 type-I diabetic patients following a hypertonic radiolabeled liquid meal, gastric emptying was measured scintigraphically during normoglycemia (5-8.9 mmol/l glucose) or hyperglycemia induced by intravenous (16-19 mmol/l) glucose infusion. The tests were performed on 4 separate days in random order after administering either placebo or 200 mg i.v. erythromycin.', 'In the hyperglycemic state compared to normoglycemia, the gastric emptying of the hypertonic liquid was reduced after placebo or erythromycin administration. The lag-phase duration (17.8+/-5.5 and 7.8+/-4.5 vs. 10.8+/-3.4 and 3.7+/-2.5 min, respectively, p<0.001), the overall gastric emptying time of the half meal (52.8+/-13 and 24.9+/-5.5 vs. 42.5+/-10.5 min and 16.6+/-6 min, respectively, p<0.001) and the retained percentage of liquid meal in the stomach at 60 and 100 min postprandially (p<0.001) were significantly increased.

Answer:
Does induced-hyperglycemia attenuate erythromycin-induced acceleration of hypertonic liquid-phase gastric emptying in type-I diabetic patients?
