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.

Context: Enterovirus infections are major etiological factors in myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy. Using an experimental murine model of this disease, previous studies have shown that myocarditis susceptibility depends upon activation of T lymphocytes expressing the gamma delta T cell receptor (TcR), and that only mouse strains which accumulate gamma delta T cells in the myocardium show apoptosis of myocytes or evidence of dilated cardiomyopathy-like disease. The objective of the present studies is to demonstrate that gamma delta T cells directly induce greater Fas-dependent apoptosis of cultured myocytes than T cells expressing the alpha beta TcR.', 'Bl.Tg.E alpha mice were infected for 7 days with coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3). Hearts were removed and were either formalin-fixed, sectioned and stained with hematoxylin and eosin for inflammation, and using TdT-TUNEL for apoptosis, or were minced and collagenase digested for isolation of gamma delta+ and alpha beta+ T cells using immunomagnetic bead separation. Neonatal cultures of cardiac myocytes were isolated from mice less than 2 days old by collagenase and pancreatin digestion, and were either untreated or infected with virus. Levels of Fas (CD95) were measured using FITC-conjugated hamster anti-mouse Fas monoclonal antibody and flow cytometry. Susceptibility of myocytes to Fas-dependent killing was measured by 51Cr-release by labeled myocytes incubated for 4 h on either 3T3-mock or 3T3-FasL transfected cell monolayers. Killing by T cells was also measured in a 4 h 51Cr-release assay. Fas-dependent and perforin-dependent cytotoxicity was determined by specific blocking using either Fas-Fc or concanamycin A.', 'Virally infected myocyte cultures showed significantly enhanced Fas expression compared to uninfected cells, with maximal upregulation of Fas occurring 18-24 h after virus infection. Both infected and uninfected myocytes were selectively killed by FasL-transfected 3T3 cells but not by mock control cells. Approximately 38% of CD3+ lymphocytes isolated from the heart express the gamma delta TcR with the remainder expressing the alpha beta TcR. Both gamma delta+ and alpha beta+ T cells lysed myocyte targets. Blocking studies indicate that gamma delta+ T cells induced predominantly Fas-mediated killing, while alpha beta+ cell produced more perforin-mediated death, although these effectors were capable of Fas-dependent killing as well.\Question: Do t cells expressing the gamma delta T cell receptor induce apoptosis in cardiac myocytes?
These studies demonstrate that T cells expressing the gamma delta TcR are more effective mediators of myocyte apoptosis than alpha beta+ T cells in vitro and suggests that these effectors may be primarily responsible for myocardial injury associated with dilated cardiomyopathy-like signs during coxsackievirus B3-induced myocarditis.

Context: To investigate the effects of interval aerobic training combined with strength-endurance exercise (IASE) and caloric restriction (CR) on body composition, glycaemic and lipid profile and inflammatory markers.', 'Thirty-two Zucker diabetic fatty rats were randomised into 4 groups (sedentary\xa0+\xa0CR; sedentary\xa0+\xa0adlibitum; IASE\xa0+\xa0CR; and IASE\xa0+\xa0adlibitum). Training groups conducted an IASE programme in the same session, 5 days/week for 2 months. Body weight, fat and muscle mass and body water were measured using a body composition analyser. Plasma total, LDL and HDL cholesterol, phospholipids, triglycerides, insulin, adiponectin, tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 and 10 were measured. Blood fasting and postprandial glucose were assessed. Body weight was lower in the CR compared to the adlibitum groups (p\xa0<\xa00.001). Fat mass was lower in the CR compared to the adlibitum (p\xa0<\xa00.05) and in the IASE compared to the sedentary groups (p\xa0<\xa00.001), but IASE increased lean mass (p\xa0<\xa00.001). Triglycerides were lower in the CR compared to the adlibitum groups (p\xa0<\xa00.001) whereas total and LDL-cholesterol and fasting glucose were reduced only in the IASE groups (all, p\xa0<\xa00.001). Phospholipids decreased in the CR compared to the adlibitum (p\xa0<\xa00.05) and the IASE compared to the sedentary groups (p\xa0<\xa00.001). The area under the curve after oral glucose tolerance test, insulin and homoeostatic model assessment were lower in the IASE and the CR compared to the sedentary and adlibitum groups, respectively (all, p\xa0<\xa00.001). Adiponectin was lower in the CR groups (p\xa0<\xa00.001).\Question: Does interval aerobic training combined with strength-endurance exercise improve metabolic markers beyond caloric restriction in Zucker rats?
Overall, IASE as well as CR were both useful interventions, especially when combined. However, IASE showed greater improvements on body composition, inflammatory and glycaemic profile than CR did.

Context: To examine the mortality risk of blood transfusions when donor information, postdonation treatment, and a wide selection of risk factors are taken into account.', 'A retrospective study was performed on 9907 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and/or aortic valve replacement. Several transfusion-related risk factors, including age of blood products, sex of donor, ABO group, Rh group, posttransfusion treatment, and sex matching, were included in the analysis. A wide selection of preoperative comorbidities were included as well. A Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to determine significant risk factors. Patients were followed for a period of up to 12\xa0years posttransfusion.', 'We found an excess mortality for transfusions of sex-mismatched red blood cells (RBCs) per unit transfused (hazard ratio [HR], 1.083; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.028-1.140; P\xa0=\xa0.003). In addition, we found a significant risk during the first year for transfusing 1 to 2 units of non-leukocyte-depleted RBCs (HR, 1.426; 95% CI, 1.004-2.024; P\xa0=\xa0.047). Transfusion of 1 to 2 units of leukocyte-depleted RBCs was not associated with increased risk (HR, 0.981; 95% CI, 0.866-1.110; P\xa0=\xa0not significant). The age of blood products was not associated with increased mortality.\Question: Does transfusion of sex-mismatched and non-leukocyte-depleted red blood cells in cardiac surgery increase mortality?

In this large retrospective study, transfusion of non-sex-matched RBCs was associated with increased mortality. In addition, in patients receiving small amounts of blood, leukocyte depletion of RBCs had a beneficial effect on patient survival.
