Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.

Ex Input:
Morbidly obese patients usually present vitamin D deficiency or secondary hyperparathyroidism. Low vitamin D levels have been recently related to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between vitamin D, bone turnover markers and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic syndrome in severely obese patients.', 'One hundred and ten patients who underwent bariatric surgery were included. Liver biopsy was taken during surgery. Two univariate analyses were carried out in order to i) analyse the relationship between liver histology and vitamin D-bone turnover markers (intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), osteocalcin and Carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks) and ii) establish the association between metabolic syndrome components-insulin resistance (HOMA) and vitamin D-bone turnover markers.', '70% of the patients had lower levels of vitamin D or secondary hyperparathyroidism. None of the components of liver histology were associated with levels of vitamin D or with bone turnover parameters. Patients with metabolic syndrome showed lower levels of PTH and osteocalcin (72,42 (29,47) vs 61.25(19.59) p-Value: 0.022; 19.79 (10.43) vs 16.87(10.25) p-Value: 0,028, respectively). HOMA was not related to Vitamin D or bone turnover markers.

To describe the novel use of a chorioretinal biopsy technique to confirm the microbiological diagnosis of endogenous Escherichia coli (E. coli) endophthalmitis, when other investigations have been proven nondiagnostic.', 'Case report of an 82-year-old white man with endogenous endophthalmitis without a clearly identifiable source of infection.', 'After systemic cultures and multiple aqueous and vitreous samples were unable to identify a causative organism, chorioretinal biopsy of a subretinal abscess was used to confirm the microbiological diagnosis. This ensured appropriate ophthalmic and systemic treatment of infection.

Ex Input:
Data on combined permanent atrial fibrillation (pAF) surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or aortic valve replacement (AVR) are scarce, and the mid- and long-term effects on survival and cardiac rhythm are unknown.', 'In a prospective analysis 125 patients (Group I: CABG and/or AVR, n = 50; Group II: mitral valve [MV] surgery, n = 75) with pAF (> or = 6 months) underwent either concomitant monopolar (Group I: n = 20; Group II: n = 75) or bipolar (Group I: n = 30) radiofrequency (RF) ablation procedures. Group I patients had a significantly smaller left atrial (LA) size than Group II patients (LA-diameter: 47.7 +/- 4.6 vs. 58.2 +/- 6.1 mm; p < 0.01). Regular follow-up was performed from 3 to 36 months after surgery to assess survival, NYHA-class, and conversion rate to stable sinus rhythm (SR).', 'Early mortality (< 30 days) of Group I patients was 0% (Group II: 2.7%), cumulative survival at long-term follow-up was 0.95 vs. 0.82 (p = 0.31) and NYHA-class improved significantly in both groups, particularly in cases with stable SR. At follow-up 80% of Group I patients had SR (Group II: 70%). In Group I patients the bipolar approach was associated with significantly shorter ablation procedure times compared to the monopolar procedure (12.1 +/- 3.4 vs. 18.9 +/- 1.6 min; p < 0.05).
