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: Burns cause thermal injury to local tissue and trigger systemic acute inflammatory processes, which may lead to multiple distant organ dysfunction. We investigated the protective effect of dietary whey supplementation on distant organs in a rat model.', 'Forty-eight rats were divided into six groups of eight: groups 1 and 2 were the controls, fed a standard diet and a whey-supplemented diet, respectively; groups 3 and 4 were fed a standard diet and subjected to burn injury; and groups 5 and 6 were fed a whey-supplemented diet and subjected to burn injury. We measured the oxidative stress variables, as well as glutathione in the liver and kidney, and histologically examined skin samples obtained 4 h (groups 3 and 5) and 72 h (groups 4 and 6) after burn injury.', 'Glutathione (GSH) levels remained the same in the liver but were slightly elevated in the kidneys after burn injury in the rats fed a standard diet. Whey supplementation caused a significant increase in hepatic GSH levels 4 h after burn injury. Moreover, there was a significant rebound effect in the liver and kidney GSH levels after 72 h and whey supplementation potentiated this effect. Hepatic and renal lipid peroxide levels were also increased 4 h after burn injury in the rats fed a standard diet. Whey supplementation significantly suppressed the burn-induced increase in hepatic and renal lipid peroxide levels. Histological examination revealed that although whey supplementation resulted in decreased subepidermal inflammation, the indicators of wound healing and collagen deposition were not improved.\Question: Does whey feeding suppress the measurement of oxidative stress in experimental burn injury?

Ex Output:
Whey pretreatment suppressed hepatic and renal oxidative stress measurements after experimental burn injury.

Context: In this study, we compared the diagnostic performance of the standard SPECT with motion-frozen (MF) myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) in obese patients.', 'A total of 90 consecutive obese patients (body mass index, 30.1-46.8, average, 34.3 +/- 3.6; age, 63 +/- 12 y; 30% women) underwent standard supine rest (201)Tl/stress (99m)Tc dual-isotope gated MPS and cardiac catheterization within 3 mo. MF images were obtained by nonlinear warping of cardiac phases to the end-diastolic position. Total perfusion deficit (TPD) was obtained for summed (S-TPD) and motion-frozen (MF-TPD) datasets with sex-specific standard and MF normal limits.', 'The area under the receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) curve for detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) by MF-TPD was significantly larger than that for S-TPD (0.93 +/- 0.25 vs. 0.88 +/- 0.32, P < 0.05). MF-TPD had higher specificity (77% vs. 55%, P < 0.05) and accuracy (89% vs. 80%, P < 0.05) than did S-TPD.\Question: Does motion-frozen myocardial perfusion SPECT improve detection of coronary artery disease in obese patients?

Ex Output:
MF processing of MPS improves CAD detection in obese patients.


Ex Input:
Context: Reactive oxygen species have been recognized to impair cell function through suppressing Akt the well-known pro-survival molecule. Pile of concrete evidence imply metformin as an Insulin sensitizer may enhance Akt/mTOR activity however the significance of Akt/mTOR recruitment has not yet been revealed in metformin induced neuroprotection against oxidative stress.', 'In the current study using H2O2 induced injury in PC12 cells; we first examined metformin impact on cell death by MTT assay and visual assessment. Metformin pretreated cells were then subjected to immunoblotting as well as real time PCR to find PI3K, Akt, mTOR and S6K concurrent transcriptional and post-transcriptional changes. The proportions of phosphorylated to non-phosphorylated constituents of PI3K/Akt/mTOR/S6K were determined to address their activation upon metformin treatment.', 'According to cells morphology and MTT data metformin led to significant protection against H2O2 induced injury in 0.1 and 0.5mM concentrations. Metformin induced protection concurred with elevated PI3K/Akt/mTOR/S6K activity as well as enhanced GSH levels. These changes paralleled with a profound decline in the corresponding transcripts as determined by real time PCR.\Question: Is metformin-induced protection against oxidative stress associated with AKT/mTOR restoration in PC12 cells?

Ex Output:

Taken together our experimentation supports the hypothesis that Akt/mTOR/S6K cascade may contribute to metformin alleviating effect. The present work while highlighting metformin anti-oxidant characteristics, concludes that Akt/mTOR signaling might be central to the drug's alleviating effects.
