Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.

[EX Q]: The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene is located within the highly polymorphic major histocompatibility complex region, exhibiting the -308 GA promoter region polymorphism and six microsatellites (TNFa-f) spanning the region nearby the TNF locus.', 'In the present study, we evaluated the frequency of -308 GA and TNFa-e polymorphisms and respective haplotypes (in chromosomal sequence: TNFd-TNFe-308GA-TNFc-TNFa-TNFb), in 222 patients with AIDS, 52 of whom exhibited cytomegalovirus retinitis, and in 202 healthy HIV-negative individuals.', 'TNF microsatellite and single nucleotide polymorphism typings were performed by PCR followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.', 'The TNF-308A allele and the 4-3-G-2-7-1 haplotype were associated with susceptibility to AIDS, whereas the TNFb4 allele and the 3-3-G-1-11-4 haplotype were associated with protection against AIDS development. The TNFc2 allele and the 4-1-G-2-2-1 haplotype, which contains the TNFc2 allele, were associated with cytomegalovirus retinitis.

[EX Q]: The molecular basis to overcome therapeutic resistance to treat glioblastoma remains unclear. The anti-apoptotic b cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) gene is associated with treatment resistance, and is transactivated by the paired box transcription factor 8 (PAX8). In earlier studies, we demonstrated that increased PAX8 expression in glioma cell lines was associated with the expression of telomerase. In this current study, we more extensively explored a role for PAX8 in gliomagenesis.', 'PAX8 expression was measured in 156 gliomas including telomerase-negative tumours, those with the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) mechanism or with a non-defined telomere maintenance mechanism (NDTMM), using immunohistochemistry and quantitative PCR. We also tested the affect of PAX8 knockdown using siRNA in cell lines on cell survival and BCL2 expression.', 'Seventy-two percent of glioblastomas were PAX8-positive (80% telomerase, 73% NDTMM, and 44% ALT). The majority of the low-grade gliomas and normal brain cells were PAX8-negative. The suppression of PAX8 was associated with a reduction in both cell growth and BCL2, suggesting that a reduction in PAX8 expression would sensitise tumours to cell death.

[EX Q]: Acute nonvariceal upper-GI hemorrhage (NVUGIH) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.', 'To examine the relationship between hospital volume and outcomes of NVUGIH.', 'A cross-sectional study.', 'Participating hospitals from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample 2004.', 'All discharged patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of NVUGIH based on the International Classification of Diseases, Clinical Modification, ninth edition codes.', 'Patients were divided into 3 groups based on discharge from hospitals with annual discharge volumes of 1 to 125 (low), 126 to 250 (medium), and >250 (high).', 'In-hospital mortality, length of stay, and hospitalization charges.', 'The study included a total of 135,366, 132,746, and 123,007 discharges with NVUGIH occurred from low-volume, medium-volume, and high-volume hospitals, respectively. On multivariate analysis, when adjusting for age, comorbidity, and the presence of complications, patients at high-volume hospitals had significantly lower in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] 0.85 [95% CI, 0.74-0.98]) than patients at low-volume hospitals. Patients at high-volume hospitals were also more likely to undergo upper-GI endoscopy (OR 1.52 [95% CI, 1.36-1.69]) or early endoscopy within 1 day of hospitalization compared with low-volume hospitals (60.5% vs 53.8%, adjusted OR 1.28 [95% CI, 1.02-1.61]). Undergoing endoscopy within day 1 was associated with shorter hospital stays (-1.08 days [95% CI, -1.24 to -0.92 days]) and lower hospitalization charges (-$1958 [95% CI, -$3227 to -$688]).
