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.

Williams syndrome (WS), a genetic disorder resulting from hemizygous microdeletion of chromosome 7q11.23, has emerged as a model for identifying the genetic architecture of socioemotional behavior. Common polymorphisms in GTF2I, which is found within the WS microdeletion, have been associated with reduced social anxiety in the general population. Identifying neural phenotypes affected by these polymorphisms would help advance our understanding not only of this specific genetic association but also of the broader neurogenetic mechanisms of variability in socioemotional behavior.', 'Through an ongoing parent protocol, the Duke Neurogenetics Study, we measured threat-related amygdala reactivity to fearful and angry facial expressions using functional magnetic resonance imaging, assessed trait personality using the Revised NEO Personality Inventory, and imputed GTF2I rs13227433 from saliva-derived DNA using custom Illumina arrays. Participants included 808 non-Hispanic Caucasian, African American, and Asian university students.', 'The GTF2I rs13227433 AA genotype, previously associated with lower social anxiety, predicted decreased threat-related amygdala reactivity. An indirect effect of GTF2I genotype on the warmth facet of extraversion was mediated by decreased threat-related amygdala reactivity in women but not men.
Does a Common Polymorphism in a Williams Syndrome Gene predict Amygdala Reactivity and Extraversion in Healthy Adults?

The main objective of this study was to analyse the outcomes after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) of a group of patients with at least one self-reported allergy and a group of patients without reported allergies. We hypothesized there is a significant negative influence on clinical outcome scores after TKA in patients with self-reported allergies.', "Four-hundred and seventy-five patients who had undergone TKA were analysed preoperatively and 1\xa0year after surgery. The WOMAC, KSS and SF-36 scores were obtained. The patients' Yesavage depression questionnaire score was also recorded. The scores of the 330 (69.5\xa0%) patients without self-reported allergies were compared to the scores of the 145 (30.5\xa0%) patients with at least one self-reported allergy in the medical record.", 'Preoperative scores were similar in both groups. The WOMAC post-operative scores (23.6 vs 20.4; p\xa0=\xa00.037) and the KSS-Knee score (91.1 vs 87.6; p\xa0=\xa00.027) were worse in the group of patients with self-reported allergies than in the group without allergies. The scores from the Yesavage depression questionnaire and in the SF-36 were similar in both groups.
Do patient-reported allergies cause inferior outcomes after total knee arthroplasty?

It is unknown whether receiving treatment that is discordant with practice guidelines is associated with improved survival in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The objectives of this study were to characterise national treatment patterns, analyse whether treatment outside of practice guidelines is associated with overall survival, and identify variables associated with receiving guidelines-discordant care in the USA.', 'This was a retrospective cohort study of 1741 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in the National Cancer Data Base (2003-2006). Treatment regimens were compared with the 2004-2006 National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines. Statistical analyses included chi-square, Kaplan-Meier, multivariable logistic, and Cox regression.', 'Nearly 26% of our cohort received care discordant with practice guidelines. In multivariable analysis, patients with stage IVC disease (odds ratio 2.59, 95% confidence interval 1.66-4.04) were more likely to receive guidelines-discordant care when compared with those with stage II-IVB disease. The most common treatment deviation for those with stage I disease was overtreatment with chemoradiation therapy. Receiving guidelines-discordant care was associated with an increased risk of death (hazard ratio 1.46, 95% confidence interval 1.25-1.69).

Is receipt of Care Discordant with Practice Guidelines Associated with Compromised Overall Survival in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma?
