PROBLEM: Question: Is meconium ileus in cystic fibrosis linked to central repetitive region length variation in MUC1 , MUC2 , and MUC5AC?
Answer: The genetic length variants in the central repetitive region of three MUC genes studied are not associated with MI in subjects with CF.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Does treatment of subclinical hypothyroidism affect bone mass as determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry , peripheral quantitative computed tomography and quantitative bone ultrasound in Spanish women?
Answer: Our results indicate that adequate metabolic control through replacement treatment with L-T4 in pre- and postmenopausal women does not affect bone mass.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Does nMD inhibition fail to identify tumour suppressor genes in microsatellite stable gastric cancer cell lines?
Answer: Although UPF1 was substantially repressed, thus resulting in the inhibition of the NMD system, we did not find genes inactivated by nonsense mutations. Our results show that the GINI strategy leads to a high number of false positives.

SOLUTION:
yes
