question:
Question: Is repeated sputum microscopy essential for monitoring tuberculosis treatment response?
Answer: The yield of a second on-the-spot sputum specimen is negligible, provided that the first smear is from an overnight specimen. From the data available, it is evident that repeated follow-up smears are not essential for documenting treatment outcome.
answer:
no


question:
Question: Does novel individual metabolic profile characterize the protein kinase B-alpha ( pkbα-/- ) in vivo model?
Answer: Specific metabolic characterization should be assessed individually. Therefore, our in silico model enables novel insights inaugurating specific primary preventive strategies targeting individual metabolic profiling precisely.
answer:
yes


question:
Question: Is variation in the DCP1 gene , encoding the angiotensin converting enzyme ACE , associated with increased susceptibility to Alzheimer 's disease?
Answer: Further research is needed to elucidate any role that the DCP1 polymorphism may play in relation to Alzheimer's disease. Previous studies may be false positive, or inconsistency in replication may be due to heterogeneity.
answer:

no
