Given a passage with a context and an answer, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. 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.

Context: Heat shock protein (HSP)70-2 is an important immunomodulatory protein induced in response to inflammatory stimuli. We assessed whether HSP70-2+1267 genotype influenced the risk of septic shock in a prospective cohort study of community-acquired pneumonia and whether HSP70-2+1267 genotype is a better predictor of septic shock than the genotype at lymphotoxin-alpha +250.', 'Prospective cohort study.', 'A large, nonprofit, private hospital system in Memphis, TN.', 'Adults admitted with community-acquired pneumonia between 1998 and 2001. Septic shock was defined according to consensus criteria (American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care Medicine, 1992).', 'Blood sampling.', 'A total of 343 subjects were enrolled; 30 had septic shock. HSP70-2+1267 and lymphotoxin-alpha +250 genotype was determined using polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme digestion. HSP70-2+1267 AA genotype was the strongest predictor of septic shock (p =.0005; relative risk, 3.5). Lymphotoxin-alpha +250 AA genotype was also associated with an increased risk of septic shock (p =.002; relative risk, 2.7). Logistic regression analysis found only age (p =.04) and HSP70-2+1267 genotype (p =.006) were predictors of septic shock. The greatest risk of septic shock was associated with carriage of the HSP70-2+1267 A/lymphotoxin-alpha +250 A haplotype (p <.0001).
Answer: HSP70-2+1267 genotype is a stronger predictor of septic shock in patients with community-acquired pneumonia than lymphotoxin-alpha +250 genotype.
Do heat shock protein 70-2+1267 AA homozygotes have an increased risk of septic shock in adults with community-acquired pneumonia?
