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.

Ex Input:
Context: Coagulation Factor XIII (FXIII) plays an important role in wound healing by stabilizing fibrin clots and cross-linking extracellular matrix proteins. FXIII is expressed in cells of the monocyte/macrophage and dendritic cell lineages in response to type 2 cytokines.', 'We sought to determine the association between FXIII and asthma pathobiology.', 'We analyzed the expression of FXIII mRNA and protein levels in bronchoalveolar lavage samples obtained before and after segmental allergen challenge from patients with mild asthma and in induced sputum samples collected from patients with mild-to-moderate and severe asthma.', 'FXIII mRNA and protein levels were highly upregulated in bronchoalveolar cells and fluid after allergen challenge and mRNA levels correlated with protein levels. In sputum of asthmatic patients, FXIII expression was positively correlated with type 2 immune response and dendritic cell markers (CD209 and CD207). FXIII expression was also associated with increased airflow limitation (FEV1/forced vital capacity and residual volume/total lung capacity ratios) and greater reversibility to β-agonists.\Question: Does airway factor XIII associate with type 2 inflammation and airway obstruction in asthmatic patients?

Ex Output:
FXIII expression was upregulated in the airways of asthmatic patients after allergen exposure. Expression in the sputum of asthmatic patients correlated with the type 2 immune response and airflow limitation. Excessive activity of FXIII could contribute to the pathophysiology of airway obstruction in asthmatic patients.


Ex Input:
Context: Perls' stain is routinely used to demonstrate iron in liver biopsies. We tested the hypothesis that it may be unnecessary in cases, where no iron or another similar pigment was seen on the routine hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) stained section.", "The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of H and E stain in demonstrating iron in liver biopsies as well as to determine the possibility of replacing Perls' stain with H and E stain.", "Two hundred pairs of slides of liver biopsies were taken from the archival files of the Department of Pathology from 2006 to 2011. Perls' and H and E slides were independently reviewed for the presence of iron.", "Hundred and one cases showed the presence of iron using H and E stain. 84 of 86 cases showed positive iron using both Perls' and H and E stains. Seventeen cases were positive using H and E stain but negative with Perls'. Only two cases did not show the presence of iron using H and E stain. Ninety-seven cases were negative using both Perls' and H and E stains. H and E stain showed a sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive valve, and negative predictive value of 97.67%, 85.08%, 90.5%, 83.16%, and 97.98%, respectively.\Question: Do hematoxylin and eosin stain shows a high sensitivity but sub-optimal specificity in demonstrating iron pigment in liver biopsies?

Ex Output:
We demonstrate that the H and E stain is a sensitive method to detect iron pigment in liver biopsies, particularly when present in large quantities. A negative H and E stain might obviate the need for extra Perls' staining, thus saving costs and shortening report turn-around times.


Ex Input:
Context: Body weight correlates with risk of breast cancer death.', 'A retrospective cohort study using patient medical records, electronic cancer registry data, and archived tissue specimens.', 'A 395-bed, comprehensive community hospital.', 'One thousand three hundred seventy-six women, aged 24 to 81 years, who were diagnosed with breast cancer between January 1, 1988, and December 31, 1995, and for whom complete medical records and adequate tissue specimens existed.', "Body weight at the time of diagnosis and patient status (ie, alive and free of breast cancer, living with breast cancer, dead of breast cancer, or dead of other cause) at the time of longest follow-up. Additional data collected, including age at diagnosis, menopausal status, tumor size, tumor grade, lymph node status, stage at diagnosis, race, estrogen-receptor (ER) status, and treatment information, were used to create multivariate Cox proportional hazards models to estimate hazard rate (HR) ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for breast cancer death. We collected ER status from the patients' medical records, when available, and supplemented the information by using immunohistochemical techniques to determine ER status from archived paraffin-embedded tumor blocks.", 'Patients were followed up for a median of 6.8 years after diagnosis. Two hundred forty-six patients died from breast cancer. Among patients with early-stage disease (I and IIA), we observed a dose-response relationship of increasing weight with increasing likelihood of dying of breast cancer. Compared with women in the lowest category of weight (< 133 lb [60 kg] at diagnosis), women in the highest category (> or = 175 lb [79 kg]) experienced a 2.5-fold increased risk of dying from breast cancer (HR ratio, 2.54 [95% CI, 1.08-6.00]; trend P = .02). Women with ER-negative cancer experienced an approximately 2-fold higher risk of dying from breast cancer compared with women with ER-positive cancer, regardless of stage at diagnosis. Women in the upper 50th percentile of weight with early-stage disease and with ER-negative tumors had a nearly 5-fold increased risk of dying (HR ratio, 4.99 [95% CI, 2.17-11.48]; P for interaction = .10) compared with women in the lower 50th percentile of weight and ER-positive tumors. The results were similar for body mass index, a measure of obesity in which weight is adjusted for height.\Question: Does body weight correlate with mortality in early-stage breast cancer?

Ex Output:

Body weight at diagnosis and ER status are important predictors of breast cancer death in early-stage disease.
