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.

To compare the efficacy and safety of prophylactic modalities for heterotopic ossification prevention after elbow and acetabular surgeries.', 'The retrospective chart review was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital and comprised record of patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation for elbow and acetabular fractures between 2010 and 2013. Data was classified into three groups: Group A patients had received single dose of radiotherapy; Group B patients had received indomethacin, and Group C patients had not received any prophylaxis. Outcome variables included time-to-fracture healing, heterotopic ossification, non-union and wound infection.', 'Of the 104patients 70(67.3%) had elbow fractures and 34(32.7%) had acetabular fractures. Out of the 70patients with elbow fractures, 28(27%) were in Group A, 24(23%) in Group B, and 18(17%) in Group C. In Group A, 4(22%) patients had wound infection compared to 1(5.5%) patient in Group C (p=0.131). One (4%) patient in Group B and 1(5.5%) in Group C developed heterotopic ossification (p=0.486). Non-union occurred in 1(4%) patient in Group B and 1(5.5%) in Group C. Out of the 34 patients with acetabular fractures, 11(32.3%) were in Group A, 10(29.4%) in Group B, and 13(38.2%) in Group C. In Group A, 2(18.2%) patients developed wound infection. Only 1(7.6%) patient in Group C developed heterotopic ossification.
Do prophylaxis against heterotopic ossification after elbow and acetabular fractures - Do we really need it?

Serotonergic dysfunction is implicated in depression, psychiatric disorders and suicidal behaviors. The first and rate-limiting step in the synthesis of serotonin is catalyzed by tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) which is encoded by TPH1 and THP2 genes. Genetic association studies have revealed contradictory results about the effect of the TPH1 A218C (rs1800532) polymorphism on suicidal behavior in different populations.', "In this study, we investigated A218C polymorphism in 109 suicide attempters and 98 healthy controls. Socio-demographic characteristics of participants were obtained through questionnaire. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and genotyping was performed by Real Time PCR. Fisher's exact test was used to evaluate the significance of the difference among the independent variables. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was tested using Pearson's goodness-of-fit chi-squared test.", 'The frequency of A allele was significantly higher in suicide attempters than controls (46.33% vs. 35.71%, p=0.0357). However, there were no differences in genotype frequencies of this locus between participants having attempted suicide and controls (p>0.05). Among males, frequencies of CC genotype and C allele were found to be significantly higher in controls (p=0.0125, p=0.0298). With regard to the female subjects and female controls, no significant association was detected between suicidal behavior and genotype/allele frequencies (p>0.05).

A cross-sectional study in a general health examination.', 'To investigate the relationship between brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and lumbar disk herniation (LDH).', 'Lumbar disk herniation (LDH) is a major cause of low back pain and sciatica. Various vascular risk factors such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, and smoking have been reported to be associated with LDH. BaPWV is an early indicator of subclinical atherosclerosis.', 'A total of 490 participants with LDH and 490 participants without LDH were selected for the evaluation of baPWV. BaPWV was measured using an automatic device. The prevalence of LDH was calculated by the quartiles of baPWV levels. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the risk factors for baPWV.', 'LDH patients had significantly higher readings of baPWV compared with non-LDH subjects (P<0.001). The prevalence rate of LDH gradually increased according to baPWV quartiles. In addition, the levels of baPWV tended to increase as the frequency of physical activity reduced. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that body mass index, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, physical activity, and systolic blood pressure contributed to increased baPWV.
