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.

[EX Q]: Context: Alterations in epigenetic processes are frequently noted in human disease. These epigenetic processes involve methylation of DNA and post-translational modifications of histones. It is well established that in particular histone methylation plays a key role in gene transcription. In this study, we have investigated the relationship between triple methylation of lysine 27 in histone H3 (H3K27Me3) modifications and atherosclerotic plaque stage.', '28 peri-renal aortic tissue patches covering the entire spectrum of atherosclerotic plaque development were evaluated by immunohistochemistry for the levels of H3K27Me3, EZH2, JMJD3 and BMI1.', 'The results of our studies are in support of a reduction in global levels of the H3K27Me3 modification in vessels with advanced atherosclerotic plaques. This reduction in H3K27Me3 levels is not accompanied by alterations in global levels of the corresponding histone methyltransferase EZH2, the catalytic subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). Likewise no alterations in global levels of BMI1, a component of the PRC1 complex, which binds to H3K27Me3-modified histones or the global expression levels of the histone demethylase JMJD3, which removes the methyl marks on H3K27, were observed.\Question: Are global histone H3 lysine 27 triple methylation levels reduced in vessels with advanced atherosclerotic plaques?
[EX A]: Together, our data show that in atherosclerosis development alterations in global levels of H3K27Me3 occur. The reduction in the number of nuclei in the tunica media that display the repressive H3K27Me3 mark in vessels with advanced atherosclerosis plaques therefore could be a reflection of the dynamic pattern of smooth muscle cell differentiation and proliferation associated with atherosclerotic disease.

[EX Q]: Context: Sepsis is an emergency condition with high mortality and morbidity rate. There are limited data on the association of cancer as a risk factor for mortality in sepsis patients in the emergency department (ED).', 'This retrospective study was conducted at the ED, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. The study period was between January 1st and December 31st, 2014. The inclusion criteria were as follows: adult patients over 15 years of age who presented at the ED with suspicion of sepsis, received treatment at the ED, and whose blood culture was found to be positive. Clinical data were recorded from medical records including the Mortality in Emergency Department Sepsis score (MEDS score). The primary outcome of this study was mortality at one month. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors associated with death.', 'During the study period, there were 775 eligible patients. The two most common pathogens identified from blood cultures were Staphylococcus aureus (193 patients; 24.9%) and Escherichia coli (158 patients; 20.4%). At one month after presenting at the ED, 110 patients (14.2%) had died. There were four significant factors for death, having cancer, being on an endotracheal tube, initial diagnosis of bacteremia, and high MED scores. Having cancer had an adjusted OR of 2.12 (95% CI of 1.29, 3.47).\Question: Do cancer Patients Are at High Risk of Mortality if Presenting with Sepsis at an Emergency Department?
[EX A]: Cancer patients have double the risk of mortality if presenting with sepsis at the ED.

[EX Q]: Context: To investigate the expression levels of lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus E (LY6E) and interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1 (IFIT1) genes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and to evaluate the relations between these gene expression levels and disease activity.', 'The clinical data of 144 SLE patients, 27 non-SLE patients with rheumatic diseases, and 59 normal controls were collected. The SLE patients were further divided into 2 subgroups: active SLE group (n = 87) and non-active SLE group (n = 57) according to SLEDAI scores. Specimens of peripheral blood were drawn; total RNA was extracted and transcribed into cDNA. Sybr green dye based real-time quantitative PCR method was used to compare the expression levels (indicated as-DeltaDeltaCT value) of LY6E and IFIT1 in patients with SLE and those in the controls.', '(1) The-DeltaDeltaCT value of LY6E expression level of the SLE patients was 5.4760 +/- 1.9806, significantly higher than those of the non-SLE patients (3.4323 +/- 1.7456) and normal controls (4.5198 +/- 1.6359, both P = 0.001). (2) The-DeltaDeltaCT value of LY6E and IFIT1 mRNA expression of the active SLE patients were 6.1960 +/- 1.7729 and 6.4997 +/- 2.6297 respectively, significantly higher than those observed in the inactive SLE patients (4.3770 +/- 1.7764 and 4.1327 +/- 2.6044 respectively, both P = 0.000). The-DeltaDeltaCT values of LY6E and IFIT1 mRNA of the SLE patients were correlated with the SLEDAI scores, and with the numbers of matched criteria used in the diagnosis of SLE (P < 0.001).\Question: Are [ Interferon-inducible genes lymphocyte antigen 6 complex E and tetratricopeptide repeats 1 correlated with clinical features of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus ]?
[EX A]:
As IFN-induced genes, elevated expression of LY6E mRNA is specific to diagnosis of SLE. The real time expression levels of LY6E and IFIT1 genes are associated with SLE disease activity. To inhibit the expression of LY6E and IFIT1 may become a novel therapeutic approach for SLE.
