Given a passage with a context and an answer, 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.

Q: Context: To investigate whether social contact and support received during hospitalization for acute ischemic stroke predict depression and daily life functioning three months later.', 'Prospective observational study using Ecological Momentary Assessments to evaluate the number of social contacts as well as social support received from family, friends and medical staff within 24\u2009hours following admission for stroke. Patients also monitored depression symptoms and behavior in real-time and in daily life contexts three months later.', 'A university hospital acute stroke unit.', 'Thirty-four mild ischemic stroke patients.', 'None.', 'One-day Ecological Momentary Assessments immediately following stroke collected information concerning perceived social support, number of social contacts and depression symptoms. Ecological Momentary Assessments was repeated three months later and addressed depression levels as well as activities of daily living, such as working, cooking, shopping and housework.', 'The number of social interactions received at hospitalization did not predict three-month outcomes. However, a better quality of moral support from friends and family immediately after stroke was associated with decreases in later depression levels (p\u2009=\u20090.041) and increases in activities of daily living (p\u2009=\u20090.011). Material support from friends and family was associated with increases in activities of daily living (p\u2009=\u20090.012). No effect was observed for support received from medical staff.
Answer: Patient perceptions of better support quality, and not quantity, immediately following mild stroke, are associated with better behavioral and emotional outcomes three months later.

A: Is very early social support following mild stroke associated with emotional and behavioral outcomes three months later?

Q: Context: Activation of NF-kappaB signaling pathway plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of carcinogenesis. However, the role of NF-kappaB pathway in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has not been fully elucidated. Studies have shown that curcumin possesses anti-infection and anti-oxidation effects. This study was to evaluate whether curcumin could induce apoptosis through inhibition of NF-kappaB signaling pathway in ESCC cells.', 'Expressions of pIkappaBalpha and Bcl-2 were detected using Western blott after incubation of ESCC cells with curcumin (50 micromol/L) at different time points. Apoptosis and the number of viable ESCC cells were analyzed using flow cytometry and MTT, respectively, after the treatment of curcumin, 5-FU, or the combination of curcumin and 5-FU.', 'In two ESCC cell lines, EC9706 and Eca109,curcumin inhibited IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and Bcl-2 in a time-dependent manner; curcumin alone increased cell apoptosis (P<0.05), and the effect became more prominent when it was combined with 5-FU (P<0.05); curcumin plus 5-FU exerted a stronger inhibition effect on cell proliferation than curcumin alone (P<0.05) or 5-FU alone (P<0.05).
Answer: Curcumin inhibits the phosphorylation of IkappaBalpha, leading to suppression of proliferation, induction of apoptosis and an increase of the sensitivity of ESCC cell lines towards 5-FU.

A: Does [ Curcumin promote apoptosis of esophageal squamous carcinoma cell lines through inhibition of NF-kappaB signaling pathway ]?

Q: Context: Endothelial dysfunction has been found to be present in subjects with both small and medium-size blood vessel vasculitides. We assess whether endothelial dysfunction was also present in patients with biopsy-proven giant cell arteritis (GCA) and whether it might be improved following steroid treatment.', 'Endothelial function was determined in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies of 6 patients with biopsy-proven GCA diagnosed between January and May 2002 by measuring flow-mediated endothelial-dependent and independent vasodilatation (EDV and EIV) by brachial ultrasonography. Patients were assessed for endothelial function within 48 hours after the onset of steroid therapy, 4 weeks after the onset of steroid therapy, and 2 years after the disease diagnosis.', 'EDV was significantly impaired in patients with GCA compared with 12 matched controls [mean 2.9%, median 2.45% (range 2.1% to 4.7%) vs mean 6.5%, median 6.6% (range 3.9% to 9.3%) in matched controls; p = 0.002]. However, no significant difference existed between patients and controls in EIV. Significant improvement of EDV after the suppression of inflammation was achieved. At Week 4 after the onset of steroid therapy all 6 patients showed enhanced responses (p = 0.028). This improvement of EDV was still present when steroid treatment was ended, 2 years after diagnosis.
Answer: Endothelial function is significantly impaired in individuals with active biopsy-proven GCA. The results highlight the importance of steroid therapy to improve endothelial function after suppression of the inflammation of GCA.

A:
Does steroid therapy improve endothelial function in patients with biopsy-proven giant cell arteritis?
