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.

[Q]: Context: To assess plantarflexion moment and hip joint moment after-effects following walking on a split-belt treadmill in healthy individuals and individuals post-stroke.', 'Cross-sectional study.', 'Ten healthy individuals (mean age 57.6 years (standard deviation; SD 17.2)) and twenty individuals post-stroke (mean age 49.3 years (SD 13.2)).', 'Participants walked on an instrumented split-belt treadmill under 3 gait periods: i) baseline (tied-belt); ii) adaptation (split-belt); and iii) post-adaptation (tied-belt). Participants post-stroke performed the protocol with the paretic and nonparetic leg on the faster belt when belts were split. Kinematic data were recorded with the Optotrak system and ground reaction forces were collected via the instrumented split-belt treadmill.', 'In both groups, the fast plantarflexion moment was reduced and the slow plantarflexion moment was increased from mid-stance to toe-off in the post-adaptation period. Significant relationships were found between the plantarflexion moment and contralateral step length.\Question: Is plantarflexion moment a contributor to step length after-effect following walking on a split-belt treadmill in individuals with stroke and healthy individuals?
[A]: Split-belt treadmills could be useful for restoring step length symmetry in individuals post-stroke who present with a longer paretic step length because the use of this type of intervention increases paretic plantarflexion moments. This intervention might be less recommended for individuals post-stroke with a shorter paretic step length because it reduces the paretic plantarflexion moment.


[Q]: Context: Analyses of the pattern of p53 mutations have been essential for epidemiologic studies linking carcinogen exposure and cancer. We were concerned by the inclusion of dubious reports in the p53 databases that could lead to controversial analysis prejudicial to the scientific community.', 'We used the universal mutation database p53 database (21,717 mutations) combined with a new p53 mutant activity database (2,300 mutants) to perform functional analysis of 1,992 publications reporting p53 alterations. This analysis was done using a statistical approach similar to that of clinical meta-analyses.', 'This analysis reveals that some reports of infrequent mutations are associated with almost normal activities of p53 proteins. These particular mutations are frequently found in studies reporting multiple mutations in one tumor, silent mutations, or lacking mutation hotspots. These reports are often associated with particular methodologies, such as nested PCR, for which key controls are not satisfactory.\Question: Does meta-analysis of the p53 mutation database for mutant p53 biological activity reveal a methodologic bias in mutation detection?
[A]: We show the importance of accurate functional analysis before inferring any genetic variation. The quality of the p53 databases is essential in order to prevent erroneous analysis and/or conclusions. The availability of functional data from our new p53 web site (http://p53.free.fr and http://www.umd.be:2072/) will allow functional prescreening to identify potential artifactual data.


[Q]: Context: A retrospective study on patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP).', 'To describe the gait stride characteristics of patients with chronic NSLBP, and to examine the effect of a novel biomechanical device on the gait stride characteristics of these patients.', 'Patient with NSLBP alters their gait patterns. This is considered a protective mechanism as patients try to avoid extensive hip and spine ranges of motion and minimize forces and moments acting on the body. In addition, there are changes in the neuromuscular control system in patients with LBP that could possibly be attributed to the effects of pain on motor control.', 'Nineteen patients underwent a gait test, using an electronic walkway, at baseline and after 12 weeks of treatment. Spatiotemporal parameters were used to identify changes in gait pattern. A novel biomechanical device comprised of 4 modular elements attached to foot-worn platforms was used in the study. The modules are 2 convex shaped biomechanical elements attached to each foot, one is located under the hindfoot region and the other is located under the forefoot region. The device was individually calibrated to each patient. The patients were instructed to walk with the calibrated biomechanical device on a daily basis for a period of 12 weeks.', 'Significant differences were found at baseline and after 12 weeks in normalized velocity (P = 0.03), cadence (P < 0.01), left normalized step length (P = 0.02), right normalized step length (P = 0.02), right swing (P < 0.01), right stance (P < 0.01), left single limb support (P = 0.01), left double limb support (P = 0.02), and right double limb support (P = 0.02).\Question: Does a novel biomechanical device improve gait pattern in patient with chronic nonspecific low back pain?
[A]:
Patients with NSLBP treated with the novel biomechanical device for 3 months increased walking speed through longer step length and eliminated asymmetrical differences.
