Given a passage with a question and an answer to that question, classify if the answer actually answers the question into 'yes' or 'no'. Output 'yes' if the answer answers the question and output 'no' if the answer does not answer the question.

Input: Consider Input: Question: Is pre-surgical cortical activation to food pictures associated with weight loss following bariatric surgery?
Answer: We found that neural activity in previously established regions associated with cognitive and behavioral self-regulation predicts weight loss following bariatric surgery. These preliminary findings highlight the role of neural circuitry in the success and maintenance of weight loss and suggest a possible future use of fMRI in screening LAGB surgery candidates.

Output: yes

Input: Consider Input: Question: Has survival after recurrent esophageal carcinoma improved over the past 18 years?
Answer: Survival after recurrent EC in patients who undergo FU without routine imaging after esophagectomy is approximately 3months and has not improved over the past 18years.

Output: no

Input: Consider Input: Question: Do non-dipper treated hypertensive patients have increased cardiac structural alterations?
Answer: In treated essential hypertensives with or without BP control the extent of nocturnal BP decrease is not associated with an increase in LV mass or LVH prevalence; therefore, the non-dipping profile, diagnosed on the basis of a single ABPM, does not identify hypertensive patients with greater cardiac damage.
Output: no
