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.

Example Input: Context: To evaluate the relationship between pro-atherogenic biomarkers and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness in patients with cardiovascular risk factors.', 'Plasma nitric oxide (NO), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, EAT thickness, flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) were determined in patients aged >18 years who were referred for echocardiography for heart ischemia or non-ischemic diseases. Cardiovascular risk factors (Framingham score [FS]\u2009≥\u200920) were weighted.', 'Hypertension, dyslipidaemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus were prevalent (≥55% of 40 patients). Patients with FS\u2009≥\u200920 (n\u2009=\u200921) showed significantly higher EAT and CIMT values. Globally, MDA, CIMT, age, waist circumference, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and FS were associated with EAT thickness. EAT was significantly associated with NO in patients with FS\u2009≥\u200920. Significant differences in EAT thickness were found between patients stratified by NO value, FMD, age, smoking status, dyslipidaemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus and FS. An EAT-associated atherogenic risk (CIMT\u2009≥\u20091\u2009mm) model was statistically significant when MDA and type 2 diabetes mellitus were included.\Question: Are pro-atherogenic mediators and subclinical atherogenesis related to epicardial adipose tissue thickness in patients with cardiovascular risk?
Example Output: EAT thickness was associated with MDA, CIMT, age, waist circumference, HDL-C and FS globally, but with NO only in patients with FS≥20. EAT may be used to identify vascular damage stage, possibly influenced by MDA and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Example Input: Context: DNA methylation at CpG dinucleotides is modified in tumorigenesis with potential impact on transcriptional activity.', 'We used the Illumina 450 K platform to evaluate DNA methylation patterns of 50 metastatic melanoma tumors, with matched gene expression data.', 'We identified three different methylation groups and validated the groups in independent data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. One group displayed hypermethylation of a developmental promoter set, genome-wide demethylation, increased proliferation and activity of the SWI/SNF complex. A second group had a methylation pattern resembling stromal and leukocyte cells, over-expressed an immune signature and had improved survival rates in metastatic tumors (p < 0.05). A third group had intermediate methylation levels and expressed both proliferative and immune signatures. The methylation groups corresponded to some degree with previously identified gene expression phenotypes.\Question: Are dNA methylation subgroups in melanoma associated with proliferative and immunological processes?
Example Output: Melanoma consists of divergent methylation groups that are distinguished by promoter methylation, proliferation and content of immunological cells.

Example Input: Context: Although serum thyroglobulin (Tg) is an excellent marker for detecting recurrent or persistent differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), it is unreliable in patients who have positive anti-Tg antibodies. Furthermore, a growing number of patients with DTC have elevated Tg levels but no detectable disease on radioiodine scanning or other imaging studies. The objective of this study was to determine whether a gradient in Tg protein level exists in patients with DTC.', 'Fifteen patients who underwent thyroidectomy and/or lymph node dissection for primary DTC (n = 10 patients) and recurrent or persistent DTC (n = 5 patients). A venipuncture was performed simultaneously from the internal jugular vein adjacent to the tumor and the ipsilateral antecubital vein. Venous Tg protein levels were measured by using a chemiluminescence assay. RESULTS.: The average internal jugular-to-antecubital vein Tg protein ratio was 3.4:1.0 (median Tg ratio, 2.9:1; range, 0.8-62.2). Four patients had positive anti-Tg antibodies but still had a Tg gradient. Tg levels were significantly higher in the adjacent internal jugular vein than in the antecubital vein (P = .0019). The Tg ratio between the internal jugular and antecubital veins was significantly higher in patients with recurrent or persistent DTC than in patients with primary tumors (P = .0196).\Question: Do patients with differentiated thyroid cancer have a venous gradient in thyroglobulin levels?
Example Output:
To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to document a venous gradient in Tg protein levels in patients with DTC. The findings suggested that venous sampling for Tg may be used to localize DTC in some patients who have high or increasing serum Tg levels but negative radioiodine scans or imaging studies.
