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.

[EX Q]: Question: Is a high body mass index in esophageal cancer patients associated with adverse outcomes following esophagectomy?
Answer: A high BMI is not associated with increased overall morbidity following esophagectomy; moreover, it is associated with decreased incidence of chylothorax. The better overall survival in patients with high BMI compared with those with low BMI might be due to a relatively low pathological stage. A high BMI should therefore not be a relative contraindication for esophagectomy.
[EX A]: no

[EX Q]: Question: Is acinetobacter baumannii infection in prior ICU bed occupants an independent risk factor for subsequent cases of ventilator-associated pneumonia?
Answer: ICU admission or the hospitalization of patients infected by Acinetobacter baumannii increases the risk of AbVAP by subsequent patients.
[EX A]: yes

[EX Q]: Question: Is persistent breast pain following breast cancer surgery associated with persistent sensory changes , pain interference , and functional impairments?
Answer: Subgroups of women with persistent postsurgical breast pain differed primarily with respect to the severity rather than the nature or underlying mechanisms of breast pain. Pervasive sensory loss and the association between persistent breast pain and sustained interference with function suggest the need for long-term clinical follow-up.
[EX A]:
yes
