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.

Q: Hypocalcemia is the most common complication after total thyroidectomy. Some patients need to stay in the hospital for monitoring of hypocalcemic symptoms and serum calcium levels for several days. We investigated the efficacy and safety of using early postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) results for early discharge after thyroidectomy.', 'A retrospective cohort study of 2 sequential groups of patients undergoing total thyroidectomy between January 2010 and March 2013 was undertaken. Patients were divided into 2 groups. In Group 1 (before June 2011), patients had daily monitoring of serum calcium level and hypocalcemic symptoms. They were discharged when calcium level was static and asymptomatic. Postoperative PTH was not utilized for discharge plan. In Group 2 (after June 2011), postoperative PTH and calcium level on day 1 were utilized to dictate subsequent management and discharge plan.', 'Of the 107 patients reviewed, 54 (50.5%) were in Group 1 and 53 (49.5%) were in Group 2. A total of 51 (47.7%) patients developed hypocalcemia. The two groups were comparable in demographic data, early postoperative PTH value, rate of hypocalcemia, the need for oral calcium and vitamin D supplements and rate of permanent hypoparathyroidism. Fewer patients in Group 2 experienced hypocalcemic symptoms, p=0.005. None of the patients in Group 2 needed intravenous calcium supplement (p=0.003). The median postoperative hospital stay for Group 1 was 4 days and for Group 2 was 1 day (p<0.0001).

A: Does postoperative PTH monitoring of hypocalcemia expedite discharge after thyroidectomy?

Q: This study investigated the isolated and combined effects of heat [temperate (22\xa0°C/30\xa0% rH) vs. hot (35\xa0°C/40\xa0% rH)] and hypoxia [sea level (FiO2 0.21) vs. moderate altitude (FiO2 0.15)] on exercise capacity and neuromuscular fatigue characteristics.', 'Eleven physically active subjects cycled to exhaustion at constant workload (66\xa0% of the power output associated with their maximal oxygen uptake in temperate conditions) in four different environmental conditions [temperate/sea level (control), hot/sea level (hot), temperate/moderate altitude (hypoxia) and hot/moderate altitude (hot\xa0+\xa0hypoxia)]. Torque and electromyography (EMG) responses following electrical stimulation of the tibial nerve (plantar-flexion; soleus) were recorded before and 5\xa0min after exercise.', 'Time to exhaustion was reduced (P\xa0<\xa00.05) in hot (-35\xa0±\xa015\xa0%) or hypoxia (-36\xa0±\xa014\xa0%) compared to control (61\xa0±\xa028\xa0min), while hot\xa0+\xa0hypoxia (-51\xa0±\xa020\xa0%) further compromised exercise capacity (P\xa0<\xa00.05). However, the effect of temperature or altitude on end-exercise core temperature (P\xa0=\xa00.089 and P\xa0=\xa00.070, respectively) and rating of perceived exertion (P\xa0>\xa00.05) did not reach significance. Maximal voluntary contraction torque, voluntary activation (twitch interpolation) and peak twitch torque decreased from pre- to post-exercise (-9\xa0±\xa01, -4\xa0±\xa01 and -6\xa0±\xa01\xa0% all trials compounded, respectively; P\xa0<\xa00.05), with no effect of the temperature or altitude. M-wave amplitude and root mean square activity were reduced (P\xa0<\xa00.05) in hot compared to temperate conditions, while normalized maximal EMG activity did not change. Altitude had no effect on any measured parameters.

A: Does combining heat stress and moderate hypoxia reduce cycling time to exhaustion without modifying neuromuscular fatigue characteristics?

Q: Calcipotriol ameliorates psoriasis through inducing keratinocyte apoptosis and inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation, while zinc finger protein A20 exhibits an anti-apoptotic effect on various types of cells.', 'To understand the potential role of A20 in calcipotriol function.', 'The A20 levels were evaluated in the psoriatic skins from both human patients and K14-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) transgenic mice that received or did not receive topical calcipotriol treatment. The in vitro effect of calcipotriol on A20 expression and the downstream NF-κB pathway was studied using a model of human foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs) that were stimulated with psoriatic cytokines [M5, a cocktail of interleukin (IL)-1a, IL-17A, IL-22, Oncostatin M and tumour necrosis factor-α, each at 10 ng mL(-1) ].', 'A20 expression was enhanced in both psoriatic tissues and keratinocytes when compared with controls, but decreased on calcipotriol treatment. The transfection of A20 small interfering RNA (siRNA) improved cell differentiation, and inhibited psoriatic inflammation in a HFK model. Moreover, the nuclear expression of NF-κB p65 decreased on A20 downregulation in psoriatic tissues and keratinocytes. Interestingly, calcipotriol enhanced the binding of A20 to ring finger protein 114 (RNF114) and A20-binding inhibitor of NF-κB-1 (ABIN-1) in HFKs, two negative regulators of the NF-κB pathway.

A:
Is zinc finger protein A20 involved in the antipsoriatic effect of calcipotriol?
