Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the use of poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) and chitosan (CS) as delivery systems for a ribosome protein (TgRPS2) to create potential vaccines against a harmful zoonotic disease affecting humans and animals.
  • Researchers synthesized TgRPS2-PLGA and TgRPS2-CS nanospheres using novel techniques and evaluated their efficacy and toxicity before immunizing mice to assess immune responses.
  • Results indicated that the nanospheres effectively stimulated immune responses, increased specific immune cell populations, and inhibited pathogen replication in affected tissues, suggesting their potential as preventive agents against toxoplasmosis.

The involvement of the right hemisphere, mainly the activation of the right cerebral regions, in recovery from post-stroke aphasia has been widely recognized. In contrast, the role of the right white matter pathways in the recovery from post-stroke aphasia is rarely understood. In this study, we aimed to provide a primary overview of the correlation between the structural integrity of the right hemispheric neural tracts based on the dual-stream model of language organization and recovery from post-stroke aphasia by systematically reviewing prior longitudinal interventional studies.

Its clinical presentation can be challenging to differentiate from benign prostatic hyperplasia. Given the rarity of primary prostate Burkitt's lymphoma, its diagnosis and treatment remain unclear.

Background: A growing body of literature indicates that the occurrence of thalamic lesions could lead to various dysfunctions, such as somatosensory disturbances, hemiparesis, language deficits, and movement disorders. However, clinical cases describing the coexistence of these types of manifestations have not been reported. Herein, we report a patient who exhibited these rare complications secondary to thalamic hemorrhage.
