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.

Q: Context: Studies that investigate the subjective benefit from a bone conduction implant (BCI) sound processor in patients with single-sided sensorineural deafness (SSD) have been limited to examining short- and mid-term benefit. In the current study, we performed a survey among 44 SSD BCI users with a median follow-up time of 50 months.', 'Forty-four experienced SSD BCI users participated in the survey, which consisted of the Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit, the Single-Sided Deafness Questionnaire, the Short Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults, and a self-made user questionnaire. For patients with tinnitus, the Tinnitus Questionnaire was also completed. The results of the survey were correlated with contralateral hearing loss, age at implantation, duration of the hearing loss at the time of implantation, duration of BCI use, and the presence and burden of tinnitus.', 'In total, 86% of the patients still used their sound processor. The Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit and the Short Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults show a statistically significant overall improvement with the BCI. The Single-Sided Deafness Questionnaire and the user questionnaire showed that almost 40% of the patients reported daily use of the sound processor. However, the survey of daily use reveals benefit only in certain circumstances. Speech understanding in noisy situations is rated rather low, and 58% of all patients reported that their BCI benefit was less than expected.
Answer: The majority of the patients reported an overall improvement from using their BCI. However, the number of users decreases during a longer follow-up time and patients get less enthusiastic about the device after an extended period of use, especially in noisy situations. However, diminished satisfaction because of time-related reductions in processor function could not be ruled out.

A: Do long-term subjective benefit with a bone conduction implant sound processor in 44 patients with single-sided deafness?

Q: Context: To investigate a putative increased risk of rectal cancer subsequent to prostatic radiotherapy.', 'In an analysis of the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry, we compared men who had radiotherapy for prostatic carcinoma with those treated surgically and those treated with neither modality. Kaplan-Meier analyses for the time to failure from rectal cancer were performed between age-matched subgroups of the three cohorts. Cox proportional hazards analyses were performed to ascertain what influences might affect the incidence of subsequent rectal cancer.', 'In all, 33,831 men were irradiated, 167,607 were treated surgically, and 36,335 received neither modality. Rectal cancers developed in 243 (0.7%) of those irradiated (mean age, 70.7 years), 578 (0.3%) of those treated surgically (68.7 years), and 227 (0.8%) of those treated with neither modality (74.2 years). When age effects and the differences between the surgical and untreated cohorts were controlled for, we were unable to demonstrate any significant increased incidence of rectal cancer in men irradiated for prostatic cancer.
Answer: An increased frequency of rectal cancer after prostatic irradiation, apparent on crude analysis, could be attributed to age confounding and other unmeasured confounders associated with prostate cancer treatment and rectal cancer risk.

A: Is prostatic irradiation associated with any measurable increase in the risk of subsequent rectal cancer?

Q: Context: Cape Town, South Africa.', 'To evaluate anti-tuberculosis treatment outcomes and rate of antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation using weekly community-based adherence support compared to daily directly observed therapy (DOT).', 'This was a retrospective analysis comparing two cohorts treated for tuberculosis (TB) in 70 TB clinics during 6-month periods before and after the introduction of a new adherence model comprising treatment literacy sessions during 2 weeks of DOT, followed by weekly home visits by community care workers to eligible patients managing their own treatment. Odds ratios (ORs) of treatment success and ART initiation were calculated using multivariable random effects logistic regression models. Hazard ratios (HRs) of default and death were calculated using multivariable random effects Cox regression models.', 'The pre-intervention cohort comprised 11\u2009896 patients with TB and the post-intervention cohort 11\u2009314. There was no difference in pre- and post-intervention anti-tuberculosis treatment success rates (respectively 82.8% and 82.5%, adjusted OR [aOR] 1.02, 95%CI 0.89-1.17, P = 0.76) nor an increased hazard of death (adjusted HR [aHR] 0.98, 95%CI 0.80-1.21, P = 0.87) or default (aHR 0.97, 95%CI 0.81-1.15, P = 0.69). The ART initiation rate increased from 67% to 74% (aOR 1.43; 95%CI 1.01-1.85, P < 0.01).
Answer: Weekly community-based adherence support was a viable alternative to daily DOT, with no deterioration in anti-tuberculosis treatment outcomes and an increase in ART initiation.

A:
Does an integrated community TB-HIV adherence model provide an alternative to DOT for tuberculosis patients in Cape Town?
