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.

Example Input: Context: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients are at risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). We aimed to explore whether systolic function by strain echocardiography is related to VAs and to the extent of fibrosis by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).', 'We included 150 HCM patients and 50 healthy individuals. VAs were defined as non-sustained and sustained ventricular tachycardia and aborted cardiac arrest. Left ventricular function was assessed by ejection fraction (EF) and by global longitudinal strain (GLS) assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography. Mechanical dispersion was calculated as standard deviation (SD) of time from Q/R on ECG to peak longitudinal strain in 16 left ventricular segments. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was assessed by CMR. HCM patients had similar EF (61 ± 5% vs. 61 ± 8%, P = 0.77), but worse GLS (-15.7 ± 3.6% vs. -21.1 ± 1.9%, P < 0.001) and more pronounced mechanical dispersion (64 ± 22 vs. 36 ± 13 ms, P < 0.001) compared with healthy individuals. VAs were documented in 37 (25%) HCM patients. Patients with VAs had worse GLS (-14.1 ± 3.6% vs. -16.3 ± 3.4%, P < 0.01), more pronounced mechanical dispersion (79 ± 27 vs. 59 ± 16 ms, P < 0.001), and higher %LGE (6.1 ± 7.8% vs. 0.5 ± 1.4%, P < 0.001) than patients without VAs. Mechanical dispersion correlated with %LGE (R = 0.52, P < 0.001) and was independently associated with VAs (OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.1-2.3, P = 0.02) and improved risk stratification for VAs.
Answer: GLS, mechanical dispersion, and LGE were markers of VAs in HCM patients. Mechanical dispersion was a strong independent predictor of VAs and related to the extent of fibrosis. Strain echocardiography may improve risk stratification of VAs in HCM.
Example Output: Is strain echocardiography related to fibrosis and ventricular arrhythmias in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?

Example Input: Context: Impaired neurodevelopmental outcome represents a major morbidity for survivors of infant heart surgery for congenital heart defects. Previous studies in these neonates have reported preoperative microcephaly, periventricular leukomalacia, and other findings. The hypothesis of this study is that preoperative cerebral blood flow is substantially diminished and might relate to preoperative neurologic conditions.', 'Preoperative brain magnetic resonance imaging was performed. Cerebral blood flow measurements in infants with congenital heart defects were obtained by using a novel noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging technique, pulsed arterial spin-label perfusion magnetic resonance imaging. Cerebral blood flow was measured before the operation under standard ventilation and repeated after increased carbon dioxide.', 'A total of 25 term infants were studied. The average age at the time of the operation was 4.4 +/- 4.6 days. Congenital heart defects varied widely. Microcephaly occurred in 24% (6/25). Baseline cerebral blood flow was 19.7 +/- 9.2 mL . 100 g -1 . min -1 (8.0-42.2 mL . 100 g -1 . min -1 ). Five patients had cerebral blood flow measurements of less than 10 mL . 100 g -1 . min -1 . Mean hypercarbic cerebral blood flow increased to 40.1 +/- 20.3 mL . 100 g -1 . min -1 (11.4-94.0 mL . 100 g -1 . min -1 , P < .001). Pairwise analyses found that low hemoglobin levels were associated with higher baseline cerebral blood flow values ( P = .04). Periventricular leukomalacia occurred in 28% (7/25) and was associated with decreased baseline cerebral blood flow values ( P = .05) and a smaller change in cerebral blood flow with hypercarbia ( P = .003).
Answer: Structural brain abnormalities are common in these neonates before surgical intervention. Preoperative cerebral blood flow for this cohort was low and drastically reduced in some patients. Low cerebral blood flow values were associated with periventricular leukomalacia. Carbon dioxide reactivity was preserved but might be compromised by some aspects of the cardiac anatomy. The full spectrum of cerebral blood flow measurements with this technique in congenital heart defects and their long-term significance require continued investigation.
Example Output: Is preoperative cerebral blood flow diminished in neonates with severe congenital heart defects?

Example Input: Context: Patients undergoing chemoradiation for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are predisposed to unplanned hospitalizations.', 'To assess the factors associated with prolonged hospitalization and its impact on patient outcomes.', 'We assessed the outcomes of patients hospitalized for ≥5 days or <5 days in 251 patients with advanced HNSCC who were undergoing radiotherapy during 2000-2012.', 'Patients who had been hospitalized for ≥5 days were more likely to be admitted for infection, acute renal failure, and/or dehydration. We found no other patient, tumor, or treatment characteristics associated with prolonged hospitalizations. Hospitalizations of ≥5 days were associated with a higher incidence of delays in radiotherapy (RT; odds ratio [OR], 2.49; 95% confidence index [CI], 1.09-5.69; 𝑃 = .03) and worse performance status after RT (OR, 5.76; 95% CI, 1.85-18.38; 𝑃 = .003). On multivariate analysis, hospitalization of ≥5 days predicted for worse local-regional control (hazard ratio [HR], 1.85; 95% CI, 1.08-3.17; 𝑃 = .03) and time to treatment failure (HR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.03-2.61; 𝑃 = .04), and performance status after RT predicted for worse local-regional control, time to treatment failure, progression-free survival, and overall survival.
Answer: As a retrospective review, we report only hypothesis-generating observations, which may have been affected by having incomplete patient information.
Example Output:
Do hospitalizations of more than 5 days predict for worse outcomes after radiotherapy for head and neck cancer?
