TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.
PROBLEM: Context: The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of low-energy femoral insufficiency fractures in elderly patients.', 'The study retrospectively evaluated the clinical course of 4 patients with low-energy femoral shaft and subtrochanteric fractures admitted to our department between 2009 and 2011. Three patients had prior long-term alendronate therapy and one had prior glucocorticoid therapy.', 'There were 5 femoral shaft fractures, 2 incomplete shaft fractures, 2 subtrochanteric and 1 intertrochanteric fractures. All femoral shaft fractures had characteristic fracture patterns with thickened lateral cortices at the proximal fragment. Six femurs had excessive medial femoral bowing, which complicated intramedullary nailing. Additional fractures were seen on both femurs of one patient who had been primarily treated with short implants. A bifocal femoral fracture was seen in one femur. Union was achieved in all patients. Two patients were able to walk independently, one with a cane and one with double crutches.\Question: Does femoral insufficiency fractures in the elderly - excessive medial femoral bowing complicate intramedullary nailing?

SOLUTION: We suggest the addition of another radiographic pattern of 'excessive medial femoral bowing' in low-energy femoral shaft fractures in elderly patients. This bowing complicates intramedullary nailing. Moreover, these insufficiency fractures should be fixed with long cephalomedullary nails.

PROBLEM: Context: To investigate the existence condition of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) termination codon bias.', 'A total of 174 reference sequences of all kinds of Hepatitis B virus(HBV) genotypes were chosen from GenBank, and compared by BioEdit. Then secondary structure of RNA was constructed and analyzed together.', '(1) There were two types of HBsAg termination codon: TAA and TGA in 174 reference sequences. TAA was in 124 cases (71.26%); and TGA in 50 cases (28.74%). (2) There was codon bias selection in HBsAg termination codon, and it could affect the secondary structure of RNA and amino acid sequence encoding protein.\Question: Does [ Hepatitis B surface antigen terminate codon bias selection ]?

SOLUTION: HBsAg termination codon bias exists and may be related to RNA structure and the conservation of protein function in the evolutionary progress.

PROBLEM: Context: Little is known about causes of intimal hyperplasia (IH) after sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation.', 'Intravascular ultrasound was performed in 24 lesions with intra-SES restenosis and a comparison group of 25 nonrestenotic SESs. To assess stent strut distribution, the maximum interstrut angle was measured with a protractor centered on the stent, and the visible struts were counted and normalized for the number of stent cells. In SES restenosis patients, minimum lumen site was compared with image slices 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10.0 mm proximal and distal to this site. The minimum lumen site had a smaller IVUS lumen area at follow-up (2.7+/-0.9 versus 6.2+/-1.9 mm2; P<0.01), larger maximum interstrut angle (135+/-39 degrees versus 72+/-23 degrees; P<0.01), larger IH area (3.4+/-1.5 versus 0.6+/-1.1 mm2; P<0.01) and thickness (0.7+/-0.3 versus 0.1+/-0.2 mm; P<0.01) at maximum interstrut angle, and fewer stent struts (4.9+/-1.0 versus 6.0+/-0.5; P<0.01) even when normalized for the number of stent cells (0.78+/-0.15 versus 0.97+/-0.07; P<0.01). Compared with nonrestenotic SES, the restenosis lesions also had a smaller minimal lumen area, larger IH area, thicker IH at maximum interstrut angle, fewer stent struts, and larger maximum interstrut angle. Multivariate analysis identified the number of visualized stent struts normalized for the number of stent cells and maximum interstrut angle as the only independent IVUS predictor of IH cross-sectional area (P<0.01 and P<0.01), minimum lumen area (P<0.01 and P<0.01), and IH thickness (P<0.01 and P<0.01).\Question: Does nonuniform strut distribution correlate with more neointimal hyperplasia after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation?

SOLUTION:
The number and distribution of stent struts affect the amount of neointima after SES implantation.
