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.

Input: Consider Input: Context: Centrifuge training, while an integral component in pilot training, is not without risks. To date there has never been a reported case of isolated transverse process fractures associated with centrifuge training.', 'A 32-yr-old Flight Surgeon underwent centrifuge training as part of an educational course. She had increasing back pain after exposure to the centrifuge. Follow-up studies showed left L2 and bilateral L3 transverse process fractures. No other contributory causes could be identified except for mild vitamin D deficiency.\Question: Do a Report of Transverse Process Fractures Secondary to the Centrifuge in a Healthy Aviator?

Output: The etiology, incidence, and treatment of transverse process fractures are examined to better prepare the clinician for the management of these cases. Puderbaugh MA. A report of transverse process fractures secondary to the centrifuge in a healthy aviator. Aerosp Med Hum Perform. 2016; 87(7):655-658.


Input: Consider Input: Context: Statin therapy in nonsurgical patient populations is associated with a significant reduction in adverse cardiovascular events, including death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke. Recently, statin therapy was shown to be associated with a reduced incidence of postoperative mortality in patients undergoing major noncardiac vascular surgery. We investigated the influence of preoperative statin therapy on adverse outcomes after primary coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.', 'A retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing primary CABG surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (n=1663) between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2001 at the Texas Heart Institute was performed. Patients were classified into 2 groups: patients receiving preoperative statin therapy (n=943) and patients not receiving preoperative antihyperlipidemic therapy (n=720). To determine if preoperative statin therapy was independently associated with a reduction in the risk of adverse postoperative outcomes, multivariate stepwise logistic regression was performed controlling for patient demographics, medical history, and preoperative medications. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that preoperative statin therapy was independently associated with a significant reduction ( approximately 50%) in the risk of 30-day all-cause mortality (3.75% versus 1.80%; P<0.05). The adjusted odds ratio for early mortality in patients receiving preoperative statin therapy compared with patients not receiving antihyperlipidemic agents was 0.53 (95% CI, 0.28 to 0.99). Statin therapy was not independently associated with a reduced risk of postoperative MI, cardiac arrhythmias, stroke, or renal dysfunction. In an attempt to further control for selection bias related to the choice of therapy, multivariate analysis of a propensity-matched cohort of 1362 patients revealed that preoperative statin therapy was independently associated with a significant reduction in the composite endpoint of 30-day all-cause mortality and stroke (7.1% versus 4.6%; P<0.05).\Question: Are statins associated with a reduced incidence of perioperative mortality after coronary artery bypass graft surgery?

Output: Preoperative statin therapy may reduce the risk of early mortality after primary CABG surgery with CPB.


Input: Consider Input: Context: This study investigated whether mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) combined with bone marrow transplantation (BMT), irradiation, or short-term immunosuppressant therapy could prolong composite tissue allotransplant survival in a swine hind-limb model.', 'Heterotopic hind-limb transplantation was performed in outbred miniature swine. Group I (n=5) was the untreated control. Group II (n=3) received MSCs alone (given on days -1, +3, +7, +14, +21). Group III (n=6) received cyclosporine A (CsA days 0 to +28). Group IV (n=4) received preconditioning irradiation (day -1), BMT (day +1), and CsA (days 0 to +28). Group V (n=5) received irradiation (day -1), BMT (day +1), CsA (days 0 to +28), and MSCs (days +1, +7,+14). The expression and localization of CD4/CD25 T cells and MSCs were assessed using flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry.', 'The allografts survival with MSCs alone revealed a significant prolongation, when compared with the controls (P=0.02). Allografts with CsA treatment exhibited delayed rejection. Irradiation and BMT-CsA treatment revealed no significant allograft survival benefit when compared with the CsA treatment group, but graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was evident. However, combination of MSCs-BMT-CsA treatment demonstrated significant prolongation of allograft survival (>200 days, P<0.001) and no signs of GVHD with the lowest degree of rejection in the allo-skin and interstitial muscle layers. The CD4/CD25 regulatory-like T-cell expression in the circulating blood and allo-skin significantly increased in the MSC-BMT-CsA group. Examination of bromodeoxyuridine-labeled MSCs revealed donor MSC engraftment into the recipient and donor skin and the recipient liver parenchymal tissue.\Question: Do mesenchymal stem cells prolong composite tissue allotransplant survival in a swine model?


Output: These results suggested that the regulatory activity of MSCs on T cells and GVHD might contribute to significant prolongation of composite tissue allotransplant survival in the MSC-BMT-CsA treatment.
