Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.
question:
Effective therapeutic interventions for chronic, idiopathic lung diseases remain elusive. Normalized T-cell function is an important contributor to spontaneous resolution of pulmonary sarcoidosis. Up-regulation of inhibitor receptors, such as programmed death-1 (PD-1) and its ligand, PD-L1, are important inhibitors of T-cell function.', 'To determine the effects of PD-1 pathway blockade on sarcoidosis CD4(+) T-cell proliferative capacity.', 'Gene expression profiles of sarcoidosis and healthy control peripheral blood mononuclear cells were analyzed at baseline and follow-up. Flow cytometry was used to measure ex vivo expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 on systemic and bronchoalveolar lavage-derived cells of subjects with sarcoidosis and control subjects, as well as the effects of PD-1 pathway blockade on cellular proliferation after T-cell receptor stimulation. Immunohistochemistry analysis for PD-1/PD-L1 expression was conducted on sarcoidosis, malignant, and healthy control lung specimens.', 'Microarray analysis demonstrates longitudinal increase in PDCD1 gene expression in sarcoidosis peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed increased PD-L1 expression within sarcoidosis granulomas and lung malignancy, but this was absent in healthy lungs. Increased numbers of sarcoidosis PD-1(+) CD4(+) T cells are present systemically, compared with healthy control subjects (P < 0.0001). Lymphocytes with reduced proliferative capacity exhibited increased proliferation with PD-1 pathway blockade. Longitudinal analysis of subjects with sarcoidosis revealed reduced PD-1(+) CD4(+) T cells with spontaneous clinical resolution but not with disease progression.

question:
We describe the epidemiology of smoking behaviors in a national young adult sample and identify common and unique demographic, social, and psychological correlates of daily smoking and lifetime and current nicotine dependence by race/ethnicity.', 'Data are from the National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent Health, wave III. Dependence was measured by the Revised Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence. Logistic regressions were estimated.', 'Hispanic ethnicity, low education, parental and peer smoking, novelty seeking, early age of smoking onset, and pleasurable initial smoking experiences are significantly correlated with daily smoking and lifetime nicotine dependence. Depressive symptoms are uniquely associated with lifetime and current dependence. Few factors are highly associated with current dependence. Initial sensitivity to smoking has a significantly greater impact on daily smoking than on dependence. Correlates of smoking behaviors are mostly common across racial/ethnic groups, although parental and peer smoking are significant for Whites and Hispanics but not for African Americans.

question:
Tracheal immunogenicity has been controversial. Although replacement of allotracheal epithelia by the host epithelia has been reported in rat orthotopic tracheal grafting, the immunological effect of epithelial replacement is still uncertain.', 'We performed orthotopic tracheal grafting of nine cartilage rings in the following groups: 1, Lewis --> Lewis (n = 30); 2, ACI --> DA (n = 25); 3, Lewis --> F344 (n = 23); 4-A, DA --> Lewis (n = 41); 4-B, DA --> Lewis with tacrolimus therapy (1 mg/kg/d for 10 days) starting from the day of the operation (n = 31); 4-C, retransplantation of DA allografts to secondary naive Lewis rats 10 or 15 days after primary grafting (n = 11); 4-D, DA --> Lewis with tacrolimus therapy starting from postoperative day 10 (n = 6). Survival times and histopathology were assessed. Epithelial replacement was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.', 'All rats survived in groups 1, 2, and 3. Even in the fully histoincompatible group 4-A, survival ratio on day 120 was 15%. Epithelial replacement was in progress on day 10 in this group. However, all tacrolimus-treated rats died by day 54 and epithelial replacement did not occur on days 30 and 50 in group 4-B. In group 4-C, retransplantation after complete epithelial replacement increased the long-surviving rats. In group 4-D, all rats receiving tacrolimus therapy after complete epithelial replacement survived over 120 days.
