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.

Context: Extracellular histones exert part of their prothrombotic activity through the stimulation of blood cells. Besides platelets, histones can bind to red blood cells (RBCs), which are important contributors to thrombogenesis, but little is known about the functional consequences of this interaction.', 'To evaluate the effect of histones on the procoagulant potential of human RBCs with particular regard to the expression of surface phosphatidylserine (PS).', 'PS exposure on human RBCs treated with a natural mixture of histones or recombinant individual histones was evaluated with fluorescein isothiocyanate-annexin-V binding and measured with flow cytometry. Calcium influx in RBCs loaded with the calcium-sensitive fluorophore Fluo-4\xa0AM was assessed with flow cytometry. The procoagulant potential of histone-treated RBCs was evaluated with a purified prothrombinase assay and a one-stage plasma recalcification clotting test.', 'Natural histones induced PS exposure on RBCs in a dose-dependent manner, and neutralization or cleavage of histones by heparin or activated protein\xa0C, respectively, abolished PS externalization. H4 was mainly responsible for the stimulating activity of histones, whereas the other subtypes were almost ineffective. Similarly, natural histones and H4 induced influx of calcium into RBCs, whereas the other individual histones did not. Histone-induced exposure of PS on RBCs translated into increased prothrombinase complex-mediated prothrombin activation and accelerated fibrin formation in plasma.\Question: Do histones induce phosphatidylserine exposure and a procoagulant phenotype in human red blood cells?
Histones induce RBCs to express a procoagulant phenotype through the externalization of PS. This finding provides new insights into the prothrombotic activity of extracellular histones.

Context: A malaria management protocol was developed and implemented at a tertiary care children's hospital in September 1999. We retrospectively evaluated children admitted with malaria 10-years preimplementation and 7-years postimplementation to determine the impact the protocol had on management and time delay to appropriate antimalarial therapy.", 'This before and after study compared all admissions with the discharge diagnosis of malaria in the study period. Retrospective chart review was used to determine the time from emergency department (ED) registration to administration of antimalarial treatment. Other outcomes measured included mortality, length of hospital stay, and intensive care unit admission.', 'Fifty-eight admissions were identified during the defined period, most of which were due to Plasmodium falciparum[r] malaria. Thirty-one (53.4%) cases were before implementation of the protocol. Children were more likely to receive appropriate investigations to assess for possible severe malaria before transfer from the ED to the ward after protocol implementation (18% vs. 63%, P = 0.005). Analysis of index cases of malaria, excluding patients diagnosed after the diagnosis of a sibling, showed there was a significant reduction in time to medication administration (8 vs. 5.5 hours, P = 0.036).\Question: Does protocol for management of imported pediatric malaria decrease time to medication administration?
After broad-based implementation of a malaria treatment protocol in a pediatric hospital, children received more thorough investigations, were more likely to receive therapy before leaving the ED and had a shorter delay before receiving appropriate antimalarial therapy.

Context: Numerous studies have reported the association between ambient temperature and mortality. However, few studies have focused on the effects of extreme temperatures on diabetes mortality, particularly in China. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of extremely cold and hot temperatures on diabetes mortality in urban areas of Harbin and Chongqing in China to provide scientific evidence for public health policy implementation to respond to challenges in diabetes mortality because of extreme temperature events.', 'A double threshold B-spline distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) was used to investigate the effects of extremely cold and hot temperatures on diabetes mortality from lag 0 to 30 days, after controlling for potential confounders including air pollutants. The unit risk, which is the elevated cumulative risk of diabetes mortality caused by each 1 °C change in extremely cold and hot temperatures during certain lag days, was estimated for extreme cold and heat using simple regression analysis.', 'Significant associations between both extreme hot and cold temperatures and diabetes mortality were observed in Harbin and Chongqing for different lag lengths. In Harbin, the extreme cold effects on diabetes mortality were delayed by three days and lasted for six days (lag 3-8), with the highest risk (RR 95% CI: 1.223,1.054-1.418 for -23 °C) at lag 5. The hot effects were delayed one day and lasted for three days (lag 1-3), with the peak RR (1.343: 1.080-1.670 for 37 °C) at lag 2. In Chongqing, the cold effects on diabetes mortality were delayed by seven days and lasted for four days (lag 7-10), with the highest risk (1.201: 1.006-1.434 for 4 °C) at lag 7. The hot effects peaked (1.811: 1.083-3.027 for 41 °C) at lag 0 and lasted for 2 days (lag 0-1). The unit risk for cold and hot effects was 12.9% (95% CI: 2.5-33.7%) and 16.5% (95% CI: 3.8-39.1%) in Harbin and 12.5% (95% CI: -4.7 to 47.5%) and 19.7% (95% CI: 3.9-48.5%) in Chongqing, respectively.\Question: Do extremely cold and hot temperatures increase the risk of diabetes mortality in metropolitan areas of two Chinese cities?

The results indicate that both extremely cold and hot temperatures increase diabetes mortality in different manners in Harbin and Chongqing. Diabetes education programs should include information on either managing or combating the effects of extreme hot and cold weather.
