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.

Q: High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein has been identified as a novel pro-inflammatory cytokine in coronary artery disease (CAD). We investigated the relationship between serum HMGB1 level and the severity of coronary artery stenosis.', 'Serum HMGB1 concentration in patients was measured by ELISA. All patients underwent coronary angiography and were assigned into groups according to the quartile of HMGB1 level.', 'HMGB1 level in USAP group was higher than that in control and SAP group. HMGB1 level in SAP group was higher than that in control group (p<0.05). Gensini scores in the highest quartile group (group IV), group III and group II were all significantly higher than that in the lowest quartile group (group I). There was significant correlation between angiographic Gensini score and serum level of HMGB1 (r=0.710, p<0.05). However, in subgroup analysis, we found that serum HMGB1 level was only correlated with angiographic Gensini score in SAP patients (r=0.786, p<0.05), but not USAP patients.

A: Is increased serum HMGB1 related to the severity of coronary artery stenosis?

Q: Ametop gel (4% amethocaine) is a relatively new topical anesthetic that produces anesthesia within 30 to 45 minutes and therefore may be appropriate for use in busy outpatient settings. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of 4% amethocaine in reducing the pain of subcutaneous measles-mumps-rubella vaccination in 1-year-old infants.', 'A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in pediatric outpatient clinics.', 'A total of 120 infants participated in the study; 60 were followed up for assessment of antibody titers after 1 month. Either 1 g of amethocaine or placebo was applied for 30 minutes before vaccination. The Modified Behavioral Pain Scale was used to assess pain; the mean (standard deviation) pain scores for the amethocaine group (n = 61) was 1.5 (1.6) versus 2.3 (2.2) for the placebo group (n = 59). The rate of vaccination success (88% and 87%) was not different between treatment groups.

A: Does topical 4 % amethocaine gel reduce the pain of subcutaneous measles-mumps-rubella vaccination?

Q: To evaluate the applicability of the WHO densitometric criteria for the diagnosis of spinal osteoporosis in men and to compare it with women with vertebral fractures, as well as to analyze the role of vertebral dimensions in the development of spinal fractures.', 'For these purposes we analyzed, using DXA, vertebral projected area and lumbar bone mineral density (BMD), as well as T and Z-scores in lumbar spine in a cohort of 66946 individuals; 2556 of these subjects had one or more atraumatic vertebral fracture (396 men and 2160 postmenopausal women).', 'Men and women with fractures showed significantly lower mean BMD, T-score and Z-score values than individuals without fractures while vertebral dimensions were similar in both groups of patients. When comparing men and women with vertebral fractures, the former showed a significantly greater projected area (46.89+/-5.5 vs. 39.13+/-4.6 cm(2) p<0.001) and lumbar BMD (0.991+/- 0.21 vs. 0.938+/- t0.19 g/cm(2) p<0.001). However, the median lumbar T-score values were similar for both sexes (-2.3 in women vs. -2.2 in men; p: NS). In addition, a similar percentage of men and women with vertebral fractures showed T-score values <-2.5 in the lumbar spine (44% vs. 46%, p=NS).

A:
Do men suffer vertebral fractures with similar spinal T-scores to women?
