Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. 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.

Input: Consider Input: Environmental conditions (eg, latitude) play a critical role in the susceptibility and severity of many autoimmune disorders, including multiple sclerosis (MS). Here, we investigated the mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of immune regulatory processes induced in the skin by moderate ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation on central nervous system (CNS) autoimmunity.', 'Effects of UVB light were analyzed in a murine model of CNS autoimmunity (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis). Additionally, patients with relapsing-remitting MS were treated with narrowband UVB phototherapy. Immunomodulatory effects were examined in skin biopsies, serum samples, and immune cells of the peripheral blood.', 'Regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are induced locally in the skin-draining lymph nodes in response to UVB exposure, connect the cutaneous immune response to CNS immunity by migration to the sites of inflammation (blood, spleen, CNS). Here, they attenuate the inflammatory response and ameliorate disease symptoms. Treg-inducing tolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) were further necessary for induction of this systemic immune regulation by UVB radiation, because ablation of Langerhans cells abolished the UVB-induced phenotype. MS patients treated with UVB phototherapy showed an increase in induced Tregs and tolerogenic DCs accompanied by the downregulation of the T-cell effector cytokine interleukin 21. The treatment further induced elevated serum levels of vitamin D.

Output: Does ultraviolet B light attenuate the systemic immune response in central nervous system autoimmunity?


Input: Consider Input: To establish a single-tube single-run multiplex PCR technique that can detect single or mixed samples with four species of Plasmodium.', 'Folding primers were designed based on the fast nested PCR. The reaction component concentrations were optimized and the primers were selected based on the annealing temperature. The established single-tube single-run folding-primer multiplex PCR (FP-PCR) was tested for its sensitivity and specificity to detect single-species and mixed samples with P. vivax, P. falciparum, P. ovale (including P. ovale wallikeri) and/or P. malariae.', 'In all the seven experimental repeats, FP-PCR successfully detected single-species infection for all the four species, with the detection limit reaching or close to 1 parasite/µl blood. For mixed infections with 2-4 species at different densities with the highest being 100 times of the lowest, FP-PCR identified all the species in each combination in 57 out of 84 tests. Further, in 10 dried blood samples on filter paper from healthy subjects, no FP-PCR amplification was found, except weak formation of dimers.

Output: Does [ Single-tube Single-run Multiplex PCR detect Mixed Samples with Four Species of Plasmodium ]?


Input: Consider Input: Endoscopic surveillance for adenocarcinoma in patients with Barrett's esophagus is costly, with one cancer detected every 48-441 patient years of follow up. Genetic abnormalities, including loss of heterozygosity at sites of tumor suppressor genes, have been detected in malignant and premalignant Barrett's esophagus. The aim of this prospective study was to determine if loss of heterozygosity analysis could identify patients with Barrett's esophagus at greatest risk of adenocarcinoma, for whom endoscopic surveillance is most appropriate.", "Loss of heterozygosity analysis was performed on endoscopic biopsies from 48 patients as part of a Barrett's surveillance program using 14 microsatellite markers shown previously to detect loss of heterozygosity in more than 30% of esophageal adenocarcinomas. Patients were followed up endoscopically for a median of 5 years.", 'Loss of heterozygosity was detected in nine patients. Three patients with loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 5q or 9p did not progress beyond metaplasia. Loss of heterozygosity at 17p11.1-p13 was detected in six patients, all of whom demonstrated dysplasia and/or carcinoma during follow up (four low-grade dysplasia, one high-grade dysplasia and one adenocarcinoma).


Output: Does loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 17p predict neoplastic progression in Barrett 's esophagus?
