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.

[EX Q]: Context: The previous study by the Polish Adult Leukemia Group has demonstrated that addition of cladribine to standard DNR+AraC induction potentiates the antileukemic activity. The goal of this study was to compare the efficacy of bone marrow or peripheral blood hematopoietic cell collection in patients who obtained remission after daunorubicine plus cytarabine induction with cladribine (DAC-7) or without addition of cladribine (DA-7) in preparation for autotransplantation.', 'Sixty-six patients aged 41 years (range, 17-58 years) were included in this study: 33 cases in the DAC-7 and 33 in the DA-7 arm. Hematopoietic cells were collected from the bone marrow (ABMT, n = 29) or from the peripheral blood (ABCT, n = 37) using cytopheresis after administration of AraC (2 x 2 g/m2) on days 1, 3, 5 and subsequent G-CSF (10 microg/kg) from day 7 as mobilization therapy.', 'The numbers of harvested CD34+ cells were similar in the DAC-7 and DA-7 pretreated patients both after harvesting from peripheral blood (2.55 x 10(6)/kg vs 2.5 x 10(6)/kg) and from bone marrow (1.62 x 10(6)/kg vs 1.55 x 10(6)/kg), respectively. The proportion of patients with sufficient material for autologous bone marrow transplantation was higher in the DAC-7 compared with the DA-7 arm. All patients engrafted; hematopoietic recovery was similar in both subgroups.\Question: Does addition of cladribine to induction/consolidation regimen impair peripheral blood stem cell mobilization and bone marrow harvest for autotransplantation in acute myeloid leukemia patients?
[EX A]: Addition of cladribine to a standard DA induction does not impair the harvesting of hematopoietic cells and their engraftment after autotransplantation.

[EX Q]: Context: To determine whether testosterone levels change as women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) grow older.', 'A follow-up cross-sectional study of a cohort of women with PCOS identified up to 20-25 years ago.', 'Women with PCOS were recruited primarily from practice records between 1970 and 1990. Voter registration tapes and household directories were used to identify age-, race-, and neighborhood-matched controls.', 'Eighty-four women with PCOS, 20-57 years of age, and 37 age-matched controls participating in a study of the risk for cardiovascular disease in women with PCOS.', 'Clinical data were collected by questionnaire and fasting blood samples were obtained randomly throughout the menstrual cycle.', 'Total and non-SHBG-bound testosterone levels.', 'Total and non-SHBG-bound testosterone levels were similar in women with PCOS who were 20-42 years of age but were reduced by approximately 50% among women 42-47 years of age and remained stable in women older than 47 years of age. Testosterone levels were increased in younger and older women with PCOS compared with controls but were similar to controls in women 42-47 years of age.\Question: Do serum testosterone levels decrease in middle age in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome?
[EX A]: Hyperandrogenism partly resolves before menopause in women with PCOS. This change may explain the tendency of women with PCOS to cycle regularly as they grow older. Testosterone levels remain elevated in older women with PCOS, however, and may contribute to their increased risk for cardiovascular disease, endometrial cancer, and other diseases.

[EX Q]: Context: High-resolution CT (HRCT) scanning is part of the management of severe asthma, but its application varies between centers. We sought to describe the HRCT scan abnormalities of a large severe asthma cohort and to determine the utility of clinical features to direct the use of HRCT scanning in this group of patients.', 'Subjects attending our Difficult Asthma Clinic (DAC) between February 2000 and November 2006 (n = 463) were extensively re-characterized and 185 underwent HRCT scan. The HRCT scans were analyzed qualitatively and the interobserver variability was assessed. Using logistic regression we defined clinical parameters that were associated with bronchiectasis (BE) and bronchial wall thickening (BWT) alone or in combination.', 'HRCT scan abnormalities were present in 80% of subjects and often coexisted with BWT (62%), BE (40%), and emphysema (8%). The interobserver agreement for BE (kappa = 0.76) and BWT (kappa = 0.63) was substantial. DAC patients who underwent HRCT scanning compared with those who did not were older, had longer disease duration, had poorer lung function, were receiving higher doses of corticosteroids, and had increased neutrophilic airway inflammation. The sensitivity and specificity of detecting BE clinically were 74% and 45%, respectively. FEV(1)/FVC ratio emerged as an important predictor for both BE and BWT but had poor discriminatory utility for subjects who did not have airway structural changes (FEV(1)/FVC ratio, >or= 75%; sensitivity, 67%; specificity, 65%).\Question: Does qualitative analysis of high-resolution CT scan in severe asthma?
[EX A]:
HRCT scan abnormalities are common in patients with severe asthma. Nonradiologic assessments fail to reliably predict important bronchial wall changes; therefore, CT scan acquisition may be required in all patients with severe asthma.
