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.

Example Input: Context: Current diagnostic tests for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) do not consistently measure chronicity of reflux. Mucosal impedance (MI) is a minimally invasive measurement to assess esophageal conductivity changes due to GERD. We aimed to investigate MI pattern in patients with symptoms of extraesophageal reflux (EER) in a prospective longitudinal cohort study.', 'Patients with potential symptoms of EER undergoing esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) with wireless pH monitoring were studied. Participants included those with erosive esophagitis (E+), normal EGD/abnormal pH (E-/pH+), and normal EGD/normal pH (E-/pH-). MI was measured from the site of injury in patients with E+, as well as at 2, 5, and 10 cm above the squamocolumnar junction (SCJ) in all participants.', 'Forty-one patients with symptoms of EER were studied. MI measurements at 2\u2009cm above the SCJ were significantly (P\u2009=\u20090.04) different among the three groups, with MI lowest for E+ and greatest for E-/pH- patients. Although not statistically significant, there is a graded increase in median (interquartile range) MI axially along the esophagus at 5\u2009cm (P\u2009=\u20090.20) and at 10\u2009cm (P\u2009=\u20090.27) above the SCJ, with those with reflux (E+ and E-/pH+) having a lower MI than those without.
Answer: Patients with symptoms of EER and evidence of acid reflux have an MI lower than those without at 2 cm above the SCJ, with a trend at 5 cm and 10 cm as well. MI may be a tool to assess presence of GERD in patients presenting with EER symptoms.
Example Output: Is esophageal Mucosal Impedance Pattern Distinct in Patients With Extraesophageal Reflux Symptoms and Pathologic Acid Reflux?

Example Input: Context: Women have poorer outcomes after vascular surgery as compared to men as shown by studies recently. Frailty is also an independent risk factor for postoperative morbidity and mortality. This study examines the interplay of gender and frailty on outcomes after infrainguinal vascular procedures.', 'The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was used to identify all patients who underwent infrainguinal vascular procedures from 2005-2012. Frailty was measured using a modified frailty index (mFI; derived from the Canadian Study of Health and Aging). Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed to investigate the association of preoperative frailty and gender, on postoperative outcomes.', 'Of 24,645 patients (92% open, 8% endovascular), there were 533 deaths (2.2%) and 6198 (25.1%) major complications within 30 d postoperatively. Women were more frail (mean mFI = 0.269) than men (mean mFI = 0.259; P < 0.001). Women and frail patients (mFI>0.25) were more likely to have a major morbidity (P < 0.001) or mortality (P < 0.001) with the highest risk in frail women. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, female gender and increasing mFI were independently significantly associated with mortality (P < 0.05) as well as major complications. The interaction of gender and frailty in multivariate analysis showed the highest adjusted 30-d mortality and morbidity in frail females at 2.8% and 30.1%, respectively and that was significantly higher (P < 0.001) than nonfrail males, nonfrail females and frail males.
Answer: Female gender and frailty are both associated with increased risk of complications and death following infrainguinal vascular procedures with the highest risk in frail females. Further studies are needed to explore the mechanisms of interaction of gender and frailty and its effect on long-term outcomes for peripheral vascular disease.
Example Output: Do gender and frailty predict poor outcomes in infrainguinal vascular surgery?

Example Input: Context: Polymorphisms in cytokine genes can determine their level of expression and affect the phenotypic expression of immunomediated diseases, such as celiac disease (CD). We thus evaluated cytokine polymorphism prevalence in CD patients and population controls, and assessed the correlation between specific polymorphisms and celiacs' clinical characteristics.", "155 CD patients and 202 population controls were enrolled in the study. Cytokine polymorphisms (TNFalpha -308 and -238, IL-1beta -511 and +3954, IL-1b RN + 2018, IL-6 -174, IL-10 -1082, -819 and -592, TGFbeta1 + 29 and +74, IFN-gamma + 874) and HLA class II alleles were determined by sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction or restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Duodenal histology was classified using Marsh's criteria. Variables significantly associated with CD patients' characteristics were identified by multivariate logistic regression analysis.", 'A significantly higher frequency of -308 TNFalpha polymorphism was observed in CD patients compared to the entire population control group, although no difference was detected when population controls were stratified according to HLA class II. Among celiacs, early onset of the disease (< or =2 year old) and the presence of a severe intestinal lesion (Marsh 3C) were significantly associated with the -1082 A/A IL-10 genotype which corresponds to a low producer phenotype (OR 3.28, 95% CI 1.49-7.19 and OR 2.60, 95% CI 1.04-6.49, respectively).
Answer: The association between IL-10 genotypes and both histological severity at diagnosis and age of onset could be related to an alteration in cytokine balance, and supports the idea that the various clinical manifestations of the disease could be determined by a different genetic background.
