In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.

Input: Consider Input: Context: The present study investigated the effects of continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) over primary somatosensory (SI) and motor (M1) cortices on motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) and short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI).', 'MEPs and SAI were recorded from the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle of the right hand following 30Hz cTBS over left-hemisphere SI and M1 delivered to the same participants in separate sessions. Measurements were taken before and up to 60min following cTBS.', 'CTBS over M1 suppressed MEPs and did not alter SAI. In contrast cTBS over SI facilitated MEPs and decreased median and digital nerve evoked SAI.\Question: Does continuous theta-burst stimulation over primary somatosensory cortex modulate short-latency afferent inhibition?

Output: These findings indicate that SAI amplitude is influenced by cTBS over SI but not M1, suggesting an important role for SI in the modulation of this circuit. These data provide further evidence that cTBS over SI versus M1 has opposite effects on corticospinal excitability.


Input: Consider Input: Context: It is common in public health and epidemiology that the outcome of interest is counts of events occurrence. Analysing these data using classical linear models is mostly inappropriate, even after transformation of outcome variables due to overdispersion. Zero-adjusted mixture count models such as zero-inflated and hurdle count models are applied to count data when over-dispersion and excess zeros exist. Main objective of the current paper is to apply such models to analyse risk factors associated with human helminths (S. haematobium) particularly in a case where there's a high proportion of zero counts.", 'The data were collected during a community-based randomised control trial assessing the impact of mass drug administration (MDA) with praziquantel in Malawi, and a school-based cross sectional epidemiology survey in Zambia. Count data models including traditional (Poisson and negative binomial) models, zero modified models (zero inflated Poisson and zero inflated negative binomial) and hurdle models (Poisson logit hurdle and negative binomial logit hurdle) were fitted and compared.', 'Using Akaike information criteria (AIC), the negative binomial logit hurdle (NBLH) and zero inflated negative binomial (ZINB) showed best performance in both datasets. With regards to zero count capturing, these models performed better than other models.\Question: Do zero adjusted models with applications to analysing helminths count data?

Output: This paper showed that zero modified NBLH and ZINB models are more appropriate methods for the analysis of data with excess zeros. The choice between the hurdle and zero-inflated models should be based on the aim and endpoints of the study.


Input: Consider Input: Context: Transannular patching (TAP) frequently accompanies primary repairs (PRs) in symptomatic neonates with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). If a systemic-pulmonary shunt (SPS) facilitates the growth of the pulmonary valve annulus (PVA), patients with a marginally small PVA could benefit from a staged repair in terms of lowering the risk of TAP.', 'Among 216 infants with TOF who underwent surgical intervention between January 2004 and December 2013, 29 infants underwent SPS with a subsequent repair (SPS group), whereas 187 infants received a PR (PR group). Median age and the Z-score of the PVA (PVA [Z]) at SPS were 32 days and\xa0-3.5, respectively. There was one late death and one follow-up loss after SPS, and preservation of the PVA was achieved on repair in 16 patients (16 of 29; 55%).', 'Multiple regression analysis showed that performance of SPS was the only indicator of the increase in the PVA (Z) in the entire cohort (n\xa0= 216). On mixed linear regression, the PVA (Z) increased significantly after the placement of an SPS (-3.6\xa0+ 0.2*duration in months, p\xa0= 0.001), whereas the prerepair changes in the PVA (Z) were not statistically significant in the PR group (p\xa0= 0.7), with a significant intergroup difference (p < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that placement of TAP is expected when the preshunt PVA (Z) is smaller than\xa0-4.2 (area under the curve: 0.82; 95% confidence interval: 0.62 to 1.00; sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 73%).\Question: Does systemic-Pulmonary Shunt facilitate the Growth of the Pulmonary Valve Annulus in Patients With Tetralogy of Fallot?


Output: SPS facilitates outgrowth of the PVA over somatic growth in patients with TOF. However, preservation of the PVA may not be achieved on staged repair if the initial PVA is too small.
