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.

[Q]: Preoperative chemoradiotherapy is one of the key strategies for the improvement of survival in pancreatic cancer; however, no method to predict the response has yet been established. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the predictive value of REG4, a new member of the regenerating (REG) islet-derived family of proteins.', 'Stably REG4-expressing cells were established from a pancreatic cancer cell line and exposed in vitro to gamma-ray or gemcitabine to investigate the relevance of REG4 to the resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. In 23 patients with resectable pancreatic cancer, the serum concentration of REG4 was measured before preoperative chemoradiotherapy, and the histologic response was evaluated after the surgery.', 'A 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and fluorescence activated cell scanning (FACS) revealed that REG4-overexpressing cells were resistant to gamma-radiation but showed a modest resistance to gemcitabine. The patients with a higher REG4 level, but not carcinoembryonic antigen or CA-19-9, showed an unfavorable histologic response to chemoradiotherapy (Spearman, rho = 0.439, P = 0.039). The patients showing a higher REG4 level experienced local recurrence postoperatively.

[Q]: NI margins have to be chosen appropriately to control the risk of degradation of treatment effects in non-inferiority (NI) trials. We aimed to study whether the current choice of NI margins protects sufficiently against a degradation of treatment effect on an average.', 'NI trials reflecting current practice were assembled and for each trial, the NI margin was translated into a likelihood of degradation. The likelihood of degradation was calculated as the conditional probability of a treatment being harmful given that it is declared non-inferior in the trial, using simulation. Its distribution among the NI trials was then studied to assess the potential risk of degradation.', "The median (lower/upper quartile) NI margin among 112 binary outcome NI trials corresponded to an odds ratio of 0.57(0.45, 0.66), while among 38 NI trials with continuous outcome, to a Cohen's d of -0.42(-0.54, -0.31) and a hazard ratio of 0.82(0.73, 0.86) among 24 survival outcome NI trials. Overall, the median likelihood of degradation was 56% (45%, 62%).

[Q]: To determine the impact of two apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurement techniques on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images (DW MRI) on the assessment of rectal cancer response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT).', 'ADC values were measured prospectively with two different techniques - the first, which measures ADCs in the most cellular tumor parts, and the second, which measures the entire tumor area, in 58 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer on pre-CRT and post-CRT image sets. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) and parameters of diagnostic accuracy were calculated for pre- and post-CRT ADC values and numeric and percent ADC change for each technique to determine their performance in tumor response evaluation using histopathological tumor-regression grade as the reference standard.', 'The second technique yielded higher AUCs (0.935 vs 0.704, P<.001), percent-change (0.828 vs 0.636, P<0.001), and numeric-change (0.866 vs 0.653, P<0.001) than the first technique for post-CRT ADC. Accuracies for post-CRT ADC assessment were 62% for the first and 88% for the second technique (cut-off values: 0.98 and 1.2910(-3) mm2/s, respectively) and for ADC change assessment, both numeric and percent, 59% and 74%, respectively (cut-off values: increase of 0.18 and 0.2810(-3) mm(2)/s; increase of 24% and 37%, respectively).
