Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the rates of iatrogenic radial nerve injury (iRNI) during humeral shaft fracture surgeries using different implants (plates vs. intramedullary nails) and surgical approaches.
  • The research analyzed 54 articles with a total of 5063 cases, revealing that iRNI rates were higher with plate fixation (5.95%) compared to intramedullary nails (2.77%).
  • The findings suggest that intramedullary nailing is safer and preferred over plate fixation for internal fixation of humeral shaft fractures due to lower iRNI rates.

Objective: To design chimeric DNA vaccine targeted to antigen-presenting cells (APCs) with enhanced efficacy to induce immunization.

Methods: The plasmid containing the gene encoding cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4), a surface molecule on T cells, was directly fused to the gene fragment HEVE2 coding for hepatitis E virus antigen by molecular engineering technology. The plasmid containing HEVE2 gene fragment alone was also constructed to serve as control and transfection of COS-7 cells with the 2 resultant plasmids was performed respectively, followed by assay of the expressions of CTLA4- HEVE2 fusion protein and HEVE2 protein in COS-7 cells by way of Western blotting.
