instruction:
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.
question:
Context: Intraflagellar transport (IFT) is a motility process operating between the ciliary/flagellar (interchangeable terms) membrane and the microtubular axoneme of motile and sensory cilia. Multipolypeptide IFT particles, composed of complexes A and B, carry flagellar precursors to their assembly site at the flagellar tip (anterograde) powered by kinesin, and turnover products from the tip back to the cytoplasm (retrograde) driven by cytoplasmic dynein. IFT is essential for the assembly and maintenance of almost all eukaryotic cilia and flagella, and mutations affecting either the IFT motors or the IFT particle polypeptides result in the inability to assemble normal flagella or in defects in the sensory functions of cilia.', 'We found that the IFT complex B polypeptide, IFT27, is a Rab-like small G protein. Reduction of the level of IFT27 by RNA interference reduces the levels of other complex A and B proteins, suggesting that this protein is instrumental in maintaining the stability of both IFT complexes. Furthermore, in addition to its role in flagellar assembly, IFT27 is unique among IFT polypeptides in that its partial knockdown results in defects in cytokinesis and elongation of the cell cycle and a more complete knockdown is lethal.\Question: Is intraflagellar transport protein 27 a small G protein involved in cell-cycle control?
answer:
IFT27, a small G protein, is one of a growing number of flagellar proteins that are now known to have a role in cell-cycle control.

question:
Context: Eradication of Helicobacter pylori is not routinely recommended for the symptomatic relief and the prevention of gastric cancer in patients with functional dyspepsia. The present study investigated a useful indicator of H. pylori eradication in such patients by determining the optimal cutoff value of a 13C-urea breath test (UBT).', 'One hundred dyspeptic patients participated in the study. Dyspepsia was scored, and a 13C-UBT administered. A level of delta 13C-UBT of>4 per thousand was diagnosed as H. pylori-positive. After the stomach was endoscopically sprayed with phenol red, biopsy specimens were taken from the antrum, body and cardia of the stomach for the assessment of H. pylori density, and activity (neutrophil infiltration) and degree (lymphocyte infiltration) of gastritis.', 'Correlation between delta 13C-UBT and dyspepsia score was not found. Delta 13C-UBT significantly correlated with H. pylori density score in the total stomach (r = 0.53, P < 0.0001), neutrophil (r = 0.34, P = 0.0005) and lymphocyte score (r = 0.69, P < 0.0001). Twenty-six of the 100 subjects had a neutrophil score of >or=4, lymphocyte score of >or=4, and H. pylori score of >or=4. Their 95% confidence interval of mean was 58.2 per thousand, which reflects moderate to marked acute and chronic gastritis, and dense H. pylori colonization.\Question: Is delta ( 13 ) C-urea breath test value a useful indicator for Helicobacter pylori eradication in patients with functional dyspepsia?
answer:
The 13C-UBT is a reliable semiquantitative test to assess H. pylori density and the activity and degree of gastritis. It is proposed that H. pylori eradication therapy might be beneficial for patients with functional dyspepsia with a delta 13C-UBT of >58.2 per thousand.

question:
Context: Growing evidence documents elevated behavioral risk among sexual-minorities, including gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals; however, tests of biological or psychological indicators of stress as explanations for these disparities have not been conducted.', 'Data were from the 2005-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, and included 9662 participants; 9254 heterosexuals, 153 gays/lesbians and 255 bisexuals. Associations between sexual orientation and tobacco, alcohol, substance, and marijuana use, and body mass index, were tested using the chi-square test. Stress, operationalized as depressive symptoms and elevated C-reactive protein, was tested as mediating the association between sexual orientation and behavioral health risks. Multiple logistic regression was used to test for mediation effects, and the Sobel test was used to evaluate the statistical significance of the meditating effect.', 'Gays/lesbians and bisexuals were more likely to report current smoking (p<.001), a lifetime history of substance use (p<.001), a lifetime history of marijuana use (p<.001), and a lifetime period of risky drinking (p=.0061). The largest disparities were observed among bisexuals. Depressive symptoms partially mediated the association between sexual orientation and current smoking (aOR 2.04, 95% CI 1.59, 2.63), lifetime history of substance use (aOR 3.30 95% CI 2.20, 4.96), and lifetime history of marijuana use (aOR 2.90, 95% CI 2.02, 4.16), among bisexuals only. C-reactive protein did not mediate the sexual orientation/behavior relationship.\Question: Does stress mediate the relationship between sexual orientation and behavioral risk disparities?
answer:
Higher prevalence of current smoking and lifetime history of substance use was observed among sexual minorities compared to heterosexuals. Among bisexuals, depressive symptoms accounted for only 0.9-3% of the reduction in the association between sexual orientation and marijuana use and tobacco use, respectively. More comprehensive assessments of stress are needed to inform explanations of the disparities in behavioral risk observed among sexual minorities.
