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.

[EX Q]: To evaluate newly diagnosed non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) patients for the existence of an associated sleep apnoea syndrome.', 'Newly identified NAION patient underwent polysomnography. The prevalence of sleep apnoea in NAION patients was compared to the prevalence previously found in the general population. Hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, and atheromatous lesions of carotid vessels as classic risk factors associated with NAION were also identified.', '27 consecutive newly diagnosed NAION patients (18 men and nine women, mean age 65 (SD 8) years, body mass index 27.2 (3.8) kg/m2) were included in the study. 24 of these 27 NAION patients (89%) exhibited a sleep apnoea syndrome (respiratory disturbance index: 37.2/h (SD 18.3/h). Risk ratio for a NAION patient to have sleep apnoea was 4.9 compared to the general population (p < 0.001). Sleep apnoea was 1.5-2-fold more frequent than the rate of the other identified risk factors typically associated with NAION (hypertension, diabetes).

[EX Q]: A severe complication in the replacement therapy of hemophilia A (HA) patients is the development of alloantibodies (inhibitors) against factor VIII, which neutralizes the substituted factor. The primary genetic risk factors influencing the development of inhibitors are F8 gene mutations. Interleukins and cytokines that are involved in the regulation of B-lymphocyte development are other possible targets as genetic risk factors. This study assesses the possible involvement of 9 selected single nucleotide gene polymorphisms (SNPs) with interleukins (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10), transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-1), and interferon gamma (IFN-) in inhibitor development in severely affected HA patients carrying a null mutation in the F8 gene.', 'A total of 173 HA patients were screened for intron 22 inversion and null mutations (nonsense and deletions). Genotyping of a total of 9 SNPs in genes IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, TGF-1, and IFN- in 103 patients and 100 healthy individuals was carried out.', 'An association analysis between 42 inhibitor (+) and 61 inhibitor (-) patients showed a significant association with the T allele of rs2069812 in the IL-5 gene promoter and patients with inhibitors (p=0.0251). The TT genotype was also significantly associated with this group with a p-value of 0.0082, odds ratio of about 7, and confidence interval of over 90%, suggesting that it is the recessive susceptibility allele and that the C allele is the dominant protective allele.

[EX Q]: To determine the role of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and Fas ligand (FasL, CD95L) in superantigen-induced and endotoxin-induced liver injury.', 'Gram-positive bacteria are increasingly common causes of sepsis and multiorgan failure, but the pathophysiologic mechanisms of superantigen-provoked hepatotoxicity remain elusive.', 'Intravital fluorescence microscopy was used to study the liver microcirculation in mice challenged with superantigen (staphylococcal enterotoxin A, SEA) or endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) combined with D-galactosamine.', 'Administration of 10 microg LPS and 50 microg SEA caused similar hepatocellular damage as determined by liver enzymes and apoptosis. Notably, TNF-alpha-deficient mice were completely protected against hepatic injury provoked by LPS, whereas no protection was observed in response to SEA. On the other hand, FasL-deficient mice were protected against liver injury induced by SEA, but no protection was found when challenged with LPS. LPS increased clear-cut leukocyte recruitment, whereas SEA had no significant effect on leukocyte responses in the liver microcirculation. Leukocyte responses to LPS were decreased by >56% in TNF-alpha gene-targeted animals. Moreover, antiadhesive therapy, ie, immunoneutralization of P-selectin, which is an effective inhibitor of leukocyte recruitment, protected against LPS-induced but not against SEA-induced hepatic damage.
