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.

Input: Consider Input: Context: Circulation on blood extracorporeally through plastic tubing activates several pathways including systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. These phenomena are suspected to participate to neurological and cardiovascular side effects observed in the patients under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). A direct relationship, in diabetic patients, between hyperglycemia and morbidity and mortality has been established. However, it is still unclear whether perioperative hyperglycemia has a direct effect on adverse events in cardiac surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of hyperglycemia on inflammation and oxidative stress in patients under CPB during cardiac surgery.', 'Control patients (n=17) and diabetic (type 2) patients (n=13) were included in this study. Blood samples were drawn before, during and after the CPB. Oxidative stress was evaluated in the plasma by direct and indirect approaches. Direct detection of ascorbyl radicals was assessed by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. An index: ascorbyl radical/vitamin C ratio is an indicator of the degree of oxidative stress taking place in the plasma. Oxygen radical absorbing capacity (ORAC) values were used as measurement of antioxidant capacity of the plasma. To determine inflammation profile of patients, we measure the evolution of plasma concentration of interleukin 8 (IL-8).', 'During cross clamping and post-CPB, the index ascorbyl radical/vitamin C is increased; the value of the index is more significant in diabetic patients. Concomitantly, ORAC values decreased in all the patients during cross clamping (p<0.05). Results concerning inflammatory index showed that IL-8 levels increased during the CPB.\Question: Is [ Oxidative stress exacerbated in diabetic patients during cardiopulmonary bypass ]?

Output: In conclusion, the current study indicates that a systemic oxidative stress occurs during CPB and post-CPB periods and that in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the systemic oxidative stress was increased.

Input: Consider Input: Context: Reduction-oxidation (redox) signaling, the translation of an oxidative intracellular environment into a cellular response, is mediated by the reversible oxidation of specific cysteine thiols. The latter can result in disulfide formation between protein hetero- or homodimers that alter protein function until the local cellular redox environment has returned to the basal state. We have previously shown that this mechanism promotes the nuclear localization and activity of the Forkhead Box O4 (FOXO4) transcription factor.', 'In this study, we sought to investigate whether redox signaling differentially controls the human FOXO3 and FOXO4 paralogs.', 'We present evidence that FOXO3 and FOXO4 have acquired paralog-specific cysteines throughout vertebrate evolution. Using a proteome-wide screen, we identified previously unknown redox-dependent FOXO3 interaction partners. The nuclear import receptors Importin-7 (IPO7) and Importin-8 (IPO8) form a disulfide-dependent heterodimer with FOXO3, which is required for its reactive oxygen species-induced nuclear translocation. FOXO4 does not interact with IPO7 or IPO8.\Question: Does evolutionary acquisition of cysteines determine FOXO paralog-specific redox signaling?

Output: IPO7 and IPO8 control the nuclear import of FOXO3, but not FOXO4, in a redox-sensitive and disulfide-dependent manner. Our findings suggest that evolutionary acquisition of cysteines has contributed to regulatory divergence of FOXO paralogs, and that phylogenetic analysis can aid in the identification of cysteines involved in redox signaling.

Input: Consider Input: Context: To assess whether methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase(MTHFR) gene C677T polymorphism is associated with neural tube defects and preeclampsia.', 'Twenty- four mothers who had given birth to normal children, 27 mothers who had given birth to NTDs children, 120 normal women, and 57 women who had suffered from preeclampsia were genotyped for C677T polymorphism by using PCR/RFLP method.', '(1) VV genotype frequency in the normal mothers group it was 0.13, while in the NTDs mothers group it was 0.33; mothers with VV genotype were at 3 times increased risk to have a NTDs child, compared with the normal mothers. (2) In the normal women group VV genotype frequency was 0.15, while in the preeclampsia women group it was 0.31; women with VV genotype were at 2.5 times increased risk to have preeclampsia, compared with the normal women.\Question: Is [ The common C677T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene associated with neural tube defects and preeclampsia ]?
Output: The authors believe that MTHFR VV genotype is associated with the development of NTDs and preeclampsia.
