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.

Both diet quality (DQ) and physical activity (PA) have been shown to play a role in the prevention of functional capacity (FC) decline. Because older adults (OA) with T2D are at a higher risk of FC decline compared to their non-diabetic counterparts, our aim was to determine if DQ alone, or combined with PA is associated with FC decline in OA with T2D over a 3-year follow-up in a secondary analysis of the NuAge cohort.', "In 159 OA with T2D (mean age=75 years), FC change was calculated as the difference in FC scores at T1 and T4 measured by the SMAF (Système de Mesure de l'Autonomie Fonctionnelle). Baseline DQ was calculated from three non-consecutive 24-h dietary recalls collected at T1 using the validated Canadian Healthy Eating Index (C-HEI). PA change was calculated from Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) as T4-T1. Associations were evaluated between FC decline and four combinations of variables: C-HEI score < or ≥70 with PASE change < or > median and analyzed by GLM while controlling for covariates.", 'Neither DQ alone nor DQ combined with PA change were associated with FC decline over follow-up.
Is decline in functional capacity unaffected by diet quality alone or in combination with physical activity among generally healthy older adults with T2D from the NuAge cohort?

To analyze the functional connectivity patterns of the different EEG bands during wakefulness and sleep (different sleep stages and cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) conditions), using concepts derived from Graph Theory.', 'We evaluated spatial patterns of EEG band synchronization between all possible pairs of electrodes (19) placed over the scalp of 10 sleeping healthy young normal subjects using two graph theoretical measures: the clustering coefficient (Cp) and the characteristic path length (Lp). The measures were obtained during wakefulness and the different sleep stages/CAP conditions from the real EEG connectivity networks and randomized control (surrogate) networks (Cp-s and Lp-s).', 'We found values of Cp and Lp compatible with a small-world network organization in all sleep stages and for all EEG bands. All bands below 15Hz showed an increase of these features during sleep (and during CAP-A phases in particular), compared to wakefulness.
Does the functional connectivity of different EEG bands move towards small-world network organization during sleep?

Multiple diverse posttranslational modifications of alpha-tubulin such as detyrosination, further cleavage of the penultimate glutamate residue (Delta2-tubulin), acetylation, and polyglutamylation increase the structural and functional diversity of microtubules.', 'Herein, we characterized the molecular profile of alpha-tubulin posttranslational modifications in normal human prostate epithelial cells (PrEC), immortalized normal prostate epithelial cells (PZ-HPV-7), androgen-dependent prostate cancer cells (LNCaP), transitional androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (LNCaP-cds and CWR22Rv1), and androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (PC3).', 'Compared to PrEC and PZ-HPV-7 cells, all cancer cells exhibited elevated levels of detyrosinated and polyglutamylated alpha-tubulin, that was paralleled by decreased protein levels of tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL). In contrast, PrEC and PZ-HPV-7 cells expressed markedly higher levels of Delta2-tubulin. Whereas alpha-tubulin acetylation levels were generally equivalent in all the cell lines, PC3 cells did not display detectable levels of Ac-tubulin.

Do normal and prostate cancer cells display distinct molecular profiles of alpha-tubulin posttranslational modifications?
