TASK DEFINITION: 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.
PROBLEM: Question: Are lobar microbleeds associated with a decline in executive functioning in older adults?
Answer: Lobar microbleeds, a marker of cerebral amyloid angiopathy, are associated with an accelerated rate of executive function decline. The presence of cerebral amyloid angiopathy may be an important source of cognitive decline in aging. Future work should examine how cerebral amyloid angiopathy interacts with neurodegenerative processes, such as Alzheimer's disease.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Question: Do several mechanical manipulations of the wall of the inner ear affect air and bone conduction auditory thresholds?
Answer: It is likely that an alternative mode of cochlear excitation is possible.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Does acute evaluation of transthoracic impedance vectors using ICD lead?
Answer: The air sensitivity and SNR in tripolar and tetrapolar ICD lead vectors did not differ significantly and were in the range of the values in pacemaker leads currently used as MV sensors. The good correlations between impedance-based and Korr-based RespR and MV measurements imply that ICD leads may be used in MV sensor systems.

SOLUTION:
yes
