Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

Example Input: Visfatin is an insulin-mimicking adipokine. Visfatin is elevated in obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, its role in glucose and lipid metabolism in healthy humans is unclear.', 'The objective was to investigate the correlations of visfatin with phenotypes of glucose, lipids, and body composition and the responses of visfatin to short-term overfeeding in healthy young men.', 'Sixty-one healthy young men were recruited from the Newfoundland population. Serum visfatin, interleukin 6, glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triacylglycerol concentrations were measured with an autoanalyzer, and percentage body fat (%BF) and percentage trunk fat (%TF) were measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Insulin resistance and beta cell function were assessed with the homeostasis model. All measurements were completed at baseline and after a 7-d overfeeding protocol exceeding the baseline requirement by 70%. Subjects were classified on the basis of %BF as lean (<21%), overweight (21-25.9%), or obese (>or=26%).', 'Multiple regression analysis showed that triacylglycerols correlated with fasting serum visfatin (P < 0.001). Moreover, serum visfatin decreased 19% overall-23% in lean, 9% in overweight, and 18% in obese subjects (P < 0.0001)-after the overfeeding protocol. None of the variables measured, including interleukin 6, were associated with the reduction in visfatin. In contrast with the findings in mice, visfatin concentrations before and after overfeeding did not correlate with glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, beta cell function, %BF, or %TF.
Example Output: Are serum visfatin concentrations positively correlated with serum triacylglycerols and down-regulated by overfeeding in healthy young men?

Example Input: Class III antiarrhythmic agents exhibit reverse rate-dependent lengthening of the action potential duration (APD). In spite of the several theories developed so far to explain this reverse rate dependency (RRD), its mechanism has not yet been clarified. The aim of the present work was to further elucidate the mechanisms responsible for reverse rate-dependent drug effects.', 'Action potentials were recorded from multicellular canine ventricular preparations and isolated cardiomyocytes, at cycle lengths (CLs) varying from 0.3 to 5 s, using conventional sharp microelectrodes. APD was either modified by applying inward and outward current pulses, or by superfusion of agents known to lengthen and shorten APD. Net membrane current (I(m)) was calculated from action potential waveforms. The hypothesis that RRD may be implicit in the relationship between I(m) and APD was tested by numerical modelling. Both drug-induced lengthening (by veratrine, BAY-K 8644, dofetilide, and BaCl(2)) and shortening (by lidocaine and nicorandil) of action potentials displayed RRD, i.e. changes in APD were greater at longer than at shorter CL. A similar dependency of effect on CL was found when repolarization was modified by injection of inward or outward current pulses. I(m) measured at various points during repolarization was inversely proportional to APD and to CL. Model simulations showed that RRD is expected as a consequence of the non-linearity of the relationship between I(m) and APD.
Example Output: Is reverse rate dependency an intrinsic property of canine cardiac preparations?

Example Input: Fetal exposure to maternal prenatal stress hormones such as cortisol exerts influences on the developing nervous system that persist and include risk for internalizing symptoms later in life. Placental corticotropin-releasing hormone (pCRH) is a feto-placental stress signal that also shapes fetal neurodevelopment and may be a more direct indicator of the fetal experience than maternal stress hormones. The programming effects of pCRH on child development are unknown. The current investigation examined associations between prenatal maternal and placental stress hormone exposures (maternal cortisol and pCRH) and child self-reported internalizing symptoms at age 5.', "Maternal plasma cortisol and pCRH levels were measured at 15, 19, 25, 31, and 36 weeks' gestation in a sample of 83 women and their 91 children (8 sibling pairs from separate pregnancies), who were born full-term. Child self-reported internalizing symptoms at age 5 were obtained using scales of the Berkeley Puppet Interview.", 'Placental CRH profiles (including elevations in mid-gestation) were associated with higher levels of internalizing symptoms at age 5. This effect was not explained by critical prenatal or postnatal influences, including obstetric risk, concurrent maternal psychological state, and family socio-economic status. Prenatal maternal cortisol was not significantly associated with child self-reported internalizing symptoms.
Example Output:
Is fetal exposure to placental corticotropin-releasing hormone associated with child self-reported internalizing symptoms?
