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: Is preoperative prolonged steroid use associated with intraoperative blood transfusion in noncardiac surgical patients?
Answer: The effect of prolonged steroid use on bleeding, if any, thus seems likely to be small and is probably of limited clinical consequence. In contrast, corticosteroid use augments the risk of both systemic and wound infections.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Does multidisciplinary care improve amputation-free survival in patients with chronic critical limb ischemia?
Answer: MDC pathways for the management of a population of CLI patients improved AFS by greater than twofold and should be the standard of care for the CLI population. Baseline nonambulatory status and unrevascularized patients also predict worse AFS. Wound healing remains prolonged regardless of preoperative or postoperative wound care. Future study is required to evaluate the costs and functional outcomes for MDC in the management of CLI.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Question: Does medialization of the subscapularis footprint affect functional outcome of arthroscopic repair?
Answer: On the basis of this study, functional outcome does not appear to be compromised by medialization of the subscapularis footprint. Medialization by 4 to 7 mm is acceptable when tendon mobility is otherwise insufficient to perform an anatomic tendon-to-bone repair of a complete subscapularis tendon tear.

SOLUTION:
no
