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 Q]: Multiple diverse posttranslational modifications of alpha-tubulin such as detyrosination, further cleavage of the penultimate glutamate residue (Delta2-tubulin), acetylation, and polyglutamylation increase the structural and functional diversity of microtubules.', 'Herein, we characterized the molecular profile of alpha-tubulin posttranslational modifications in normal human prostate epithelial cells (PrEC), immortalized normal prostate epithelial cells (PZ-HPV-7), androgen-dependent prostate cancer cells (LNCaP), transitional androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (LNCaP-cds and CWR22Rv1), and androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (PC3).', 'Compared to PrEC and PZ-HPV-7 cells, all cancer cells exhibited elevated levels of detyrosinated and polyglutamylated alpha-tubulin, that was paralleled by decreased protein levels of tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL). In contrast, PrEC and PZ-HPV-7 cells expressed markedly higher levels of Delta2-tubulin. Whereas alpha-tubulin acetylation levels were generally equivalent in all the cell lines, PC3 cells did not display detectable levels of Ac-tubulin.

[EX Q]: Advanced heart failure (HF) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality; traditionally used prognostic factors often fail to predict the outcome. Increased red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has recently been recognized as an important unfavorable prognostic factor in HF, independent of anemia; however, the role of RDW in patients with advanced HF has not yet been investigated.', 'Eighty consecutive patients with stage D heart failure, recently hospitalized for HF decompensation, were enrolled. A Cox proportional-hazard model was used to determine whether RDW was independently associated with outcome.', 'At study entry, ejection fraction (EF), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), hemoglobin (Hb) and RDW were 25 8.6%, 27.5 8 mmHg, 12.5 1.9 mg/dL and 18 3.5% (normal <14.5%) respectively. At 6 months, 44 patients (55%) had died. In this patient population, EF (p=0.45), PCWP (p=0.106), age (p=0.54), albumin (0.678), iron (p=0.37), creatinine (p=0.432), iron deficiency defined by bone marrow aspiration (p=0.37), bilirubin (p=0.422), peak VO2 (p=0.057) and Hb (p=0.95) were not significant predictors of a worse outcome. However, RDW was a significant marker for adverse prognosis (p=0.007, HR: 1.14, CI: 1.04-1.24) and retained its prognostic significance even when corrected for Hb values (HR: 1.15, CI: 1.05-1.27, p=0.003).

[EX Q]: In essential hypertensive patients, blunted renal plasma flow responsiveness to angiotensin II suggests a pathologic increase in angiotensin II in the kidneys. This blunting has been associated with the angiotensinogen 235TT genotype. As several measures of renal function decline with age, we sought to determine the interaction of age and genotype on this intermediate phenotype.', 'Three hundred fifteen participants had renal plasma flow response to subpressor doses of angiotensin II (3 ng/kg/min) measured by para-aminohippuric acid clearance in high-sodium balance. Individuals were divided by median age into young (<45 years) and older (> or =45 years) sets. A subset of participants was also studied after administration of captopril.', 'Age, baseline renal plasma flow, BMI and angiotensinogen 235 genotype independently predicted renal plasma flow responsiveness to angiotensin II. Renal plasma flow responses were lower in older individuals than younger (P = 0.03, hypertensive patients; P = 0.004, normotensive individuals). Both hypertensive patients and normotensive individuals carrying either angiotensinogen 235MM or MT genotypes showed this inverse association (P = 0.005, hypertensive patients; P = 0.05, normotensive individuals). However, among angiotensinogen 235TT homozygotes the pattern differed: normotensive individuals had a fall in renal vascular responsiveness with age (P = 0.01) but hypertensive patients did not (P = 0.72). Young hypertensive patients already showed blunted responses. Of all genotype subsets, only angiotensinogen 235TT hypertensive patients showed enhancement (P = 0.03) of the renal vascular responsiveness to angiotensin II after captopril.
