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.

Ex Input:
Context: To evaluate response to radiation and clinical outcome of uterine cervical cancer patients with tumor-related leukocytosis (TRL) at initial diagnosis and during definitive radiotherapy.', 'We retrospectively analyzed 2456 patients with stage IA-IVA uterine cervical cancer who received definitive radiotherapy with (37.4%) or without (62.6%) platinum-based chemotherapy between 1986 and 2012. TRL was defined as two or more occurrences of leukocytosis over 9000/μl at the time of diagnosis and during the course of treatment. Locoregional failure-free survival (LFFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between patients with or without TRL.', 'The median age of all patients was 55 years, and the median follow-up time was 65.1 months. TRL was observed in 398 patients (16%) at initial diagnosis; TRL (+) patients were younger and had larger tumors, advanced stage, and more frequent lymph node metastases (all P < 0.05). TRL (+) patients showed a significantly lower rate of complete remission than TRL (-) patients (89.9% versus 96.3%, respectively, P = 0.042). Ten-year LFFS and OS for all patients were 84% and 78%, respectively. LFFS and OS were significantly lower in TRL (+) patients than TRL (-) patients (10-year LFFS: 69% versus 87% respectively, P < 0.001; 10-year OS: 63% versus 81% respectively P < 0.001). After propensity score matching, LFFS and OS rates in TRL (+) patients remained significantly lower than for TRL (-) patients; this significant difference was also observed on multivariate analysis. Twenty-six percent of patients with locoregional failure (n = 345) were TRL (+) and had significantly poorer median OS (6 versus 12 months, P = 0.001).\Question: Is tumor-related leukocytosis associated with poor radiation response and clinical outcome in uterine cervical cancer patients?

Ex Output:
This study reveals the aggressive nature of cervical cancer with TRL and its poor response to radiation therapy. Given the unfavorable prognosis and higher probability of treatment failure, optimal diagnostic and therapeutic approaches and careful monitoring for early detection of recurrence should be considered for these patients.

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).\Question: Is preoperative cerebral blood flow diminished in neonates with severe congenital heart defects?

Ex Output:
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.

Context: L1-cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) was previously reported to carry a poor prognosis in Stage I, low-risk endometrial cancer (EC). We evaluated the role of L1CAM among all stages and histologies in ECs in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).', 'Clinical information and RNA-Seq expression data were derived from TCGA uterine cancer cohort. Associations between L1CAM expression and clinical factors were tested with linear and logistic regression. Differences in survival between "high" and "low" expression groups (defined by median expression) of L1CAM were compared using Cox regression analysis, with p-values calculated via log-rank test. Kaplan-Meier curves were tested with the log-rank test.', 'Patient characteristics of 545 primary tumors with RNA-Seq gene expression data were analyzed. Median age was 64years (range 31-90). Stage I, II, III, and IV comprised 62%, 10%, 23%, and 5%, respectively. 75% were endometrioid; 21% serous. Grade 1, 2, and 3 comprised 18%, 22%, and 60%, respectively. Median follow-up was 23.0months. High L1CAM expression was associated with advanced stage (OR 3.2), high grade (OR=6.8), serous histology (OR=16.3), positive cytology (OR=3.5), positive pelvic (OR=21.8) and para-aortic lymph nodes (OR=10.3) (all p≤0.001). High L1CAM was associated with a median overall survival (OS) of 107months, versus not reached for low L1-expressing ECs (HR=3.46, CI 1.97-6.07, p<0.001). On multivariate analysis, L1CAM expression remained an independent prognostic variable in predicting OS in EC.\Question: Is l1CAM an independent predictor of poor survival in endometrial cancer - An analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas ( TCGA )?

Ex Output:

L1CAM expression is an independent predictor of poor survival in endometrial cancer, and is associated with advanced stage, high-risk endometrial cancer.
