Incidence and recovery rate of secondary radial nerve palsy in closed humeral shaft fractures

	Overall N = 1670^a	Non-operative N = 269^a	Operative N = 1401^a	p value
Secondary RNP, n (%)	57 (4%)	1 (0.4%)	56 (4%)	< 0.01*
Recovery without reintervention, n (%)	51/54 (94%)^b	0 (0%)	51/53 (96%)^b

^aPatients with primary RNP were not included in this analysis

^bArora et al. did not describe the recovery of three secondary RNPs. These were not included in the recovery rate
