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.

Immune monitoring (IM) has not been shown to be associated with cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV).', 'Maximal intimal area, average percent stenosis, plaque volume, and maximal intimal thickness (MIT) were measured for matched baseline and one-yr IVUS segments in a blinded fashion. Patients were divided into quartiles by IM scores and outcomes compared. Optimal IM cutoff was determined.', 'IM assays were measured at 63.7 ± 16.4 d after transplantation in fifty patients. Progression of maximal intimal area (p = 0.005), average percent stenosis (p < 0.001), plaque volume (p = 0.005), and MIT (p = 0.001) were increased across the quartiles. An optimal IM assay cutoff of 406.0 ng ATP/mL demonstrated a sensitivity of 66.7% and specificity of 94.3% for predicting rapid progression of MIT ≥ 0.5 mm. Mean IM scores for Group 1 vs. Group 2 were 176.4 ± 102.2 and 616.3 ± 239.5 ngATP/mL, respectively. Rapid progression of MIT ≥ 0.5 mm occurred in 5/38 patients (13.2%) in Group 1 vs. 10/12 patients (83.3%) in Group 2 (p < 0.001). The risk ratio for rapid progression with elevated IM was 11.7 (p < 0.001).

Ex Output:
Is elevated immune monitoring early after cardiac transplantation associated with increased plaque progression by intravascular ultrasound?

To explore the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on the growth inhibition of imatinib (IM)-resistant bcr-abl mutant cell lines in vitro.', 'Cell growth of one IM-sensitive cell line, 32Dp210 and 15 IM-resistant cell lines including T315I and other 14 bcr-abl mutants were detected by MTT assay after treatment with IM and As2O3. The cell lines with 5 frequently observed mutants in CML patients were analyzed for apoptosis by flow cytometry with Annexin V and PI staining as well as the expression of bcr-abl fusion protein, phosphorylated CRKL protein and apoptosis-related proteins by Western blot.', 'The fifty percent inhibition concentration (IC50) values of As2O3 for 15 IM-resistant cell lines were 2.6-5.3 fold lower than that for IM-sensitive cell line. For the 5 bcr-abl mutants frequently happened in CML patients, As2O3 significantly inhibited the expression of bcr-abl fusion protein and phosphorylated CRKL and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner as compared with that for 32Dp210. Coincidently, the cell apoptosis was induced through caspase-3, 8 and 9 pathways.

The DSM-5 encompasses a wide range of symptoms for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Symptoms are commonly added up to sum-scores, and thresholds differentiate between healthy and depressed individuals. The underlying assumption is that all patients diagnosed with MDD have a similar condition, and that sum-scores accurately reflect the severity of this condition. To test this assumption, we examined the number of DSM-5 depression symptom patterns in the "Sequenced Treatment Alternatives to Relieve Depression" (STAR*D) study.', 'We investigated the number of unique symptom profiles reported by 3703 depressed outpatients at the beginning of the first treatment stage of STAR*D.', 'Overall, we identified 1030 unique symptom profiles. Of these profiles, 864 profiles (83.9%) were endorsed by five or fewer subjects, and 501 profiles (48.6%) were endorsed by only one individual. The most common symptom profile exhibited a frequency of only 1.8%. Controlling for overall depression severity did not reduce the amount of observed heterogeneity.
