Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a common long-term complication following lung surgery. Its high incidence significantly impacts patients’ quality of life and functional recovery, and imposes a substantial socioeconomic burden. This consensus aims to systematically establish a standardized integrated Chinese and Western medicine diagnostic and treatment framework for chronic post-lung surgery pain (CPLSP). Based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical research and multidisciplinary clinical experience, the working group comprehensively elaborates on core issues regarding CPLSP, including its definition, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical assessment, Western medical treatment, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, and integrated strategies. The consensus emphasizes a patient-centered approach, adhering to the principles of multimodality, individualization, and stepwise management, highlighting the synergistic advantages of integrating Chinese and Western medicine throughout the entire perioperative management cycle encompassing "perioperative anti-inflammation, acute analgesia, and chronic rehabilitation." Through systematic literature retrieval and evidence integration, a total of 9 core recommendations were established to provide scientifically sound and clinically practical guidance.

Background and purpose:SEC14L1P1,a pseudogene of the SEC14 family,is closely associated with the development of various tumors,but its role in oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)has not been clarified.This study aimed to gain insights into the expression characteristics and subcellular localization of SEC14L1P1 in OSCC cells,as well as its effects on OSCC cell proliferation and migration.Methods:The expression of SEC14L1P1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)tissues was analyzed by the ENCORI database;The expression of SEC14L1P1 and its relationship with patient prognosis in HNSCC was further analyzed using the GDC and UCSC Xena databases.The expression of SEC14L1P1 in OSCC cell lines was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RTFQ-PCR);RNA nucleoplasmic separation assay was performed to determine the localization of SEC14L1P1 in OSCC cells.SEC14L1P1 knockdown(SS-SEC14L1P1)group and knockdown control(SS-NC)group were established for CAL-27 cells,and SEC14L1P1 overexpression(SEC14L1P1)group and overexpression control(Vector)group were established for HN30 cells.The effects of SEC14L1P1 expression on the proliferation and migration abilities of cells in each group were assessed by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)and transwell migration assays.RTFQ-PCR and Western blot experiments were used to detect the effects of altered SEC14L1P1 expression on the expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)-related genes.To investigate the effects of SEC14L1P1 on the proliferation of OSCC cells in vivo using a subcutaneous xenograft tumor model in nude mice,12 four-week-old BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into two groups:the antisense oligonucleotide(ASO)-NC group and the ASO-SEC14L1P1 group,with 6 mice in each group.All mice were individually labeled.Further mechanistic studies were performed by analyzing molecules interacting with SEC14L1P1 through the RNAInter database,and the ENCORI database was queried for expression correlation between SEC14L1P1 and DHX9.The effect of altered SEC14L1P1 expression on the phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)pathway was detected by Western blot assay.Results:Database analysis showed that the expression of SEC14L1P1 was higher in HNSCC tissues than in normal tissues,and was strongly associated with poor patient prognosis.The RTFQ-PCR results showed that SEC14L1P1 was highly expressed in all six OSCC cell lines;RNA nucleoplasmic separation showed that SEC14L1P1 was mainly localized in the nucleus in CAL-27 and HN30 cells.Compared with SS-NC,the relative expression of SEC14L1P1 in the SS-SEC14L1P1 group was significantly lower and significantly inhibited cell proliferation and migration,while the relative expression of SEC14L1P1 in the SEC14L1P1 group was significantly higher compared with the Vector group,which also significantly increased cell proliferation and migration.The down-regulation of SEC14L1P1 was accompanied by increased mRNA and protein levels of E-cadherin,and decreased mRNA and protein levels of N-cadherin and vimentin,with the opposite result after SEC14L1P1 overexpression.In vivo experiments showed that the xenograft tumor weight and volume of the ASO-SEC14L1P1 group were significantly reduced.Further mechanistic studies revealed a positive correlation between SEC14L1P1 and DHX9 expressions,and DHX9 has been shown to activate the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Knockdown of SEC14L1P1 resulted in decreased protein expressions of phosphorylated-PI3K(p-PI3K)and phosphorylated-AKT(p-AKT),and overexpression of SEC14L1P1 increased protein expressions of p-PI3K and p-AKT.Conclusion:SEC14L1P1 showed high expression levels in OSCC cells and tissues and promoted the proliferation and migration of OSCC cells,a phenomenon that may be related to the regulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway by SEC14L1P1,which in turn promotes EMT.

Objective:To explore the possibility of using a inferior gluteal artery perforator flap (IGAPF) for breast reconstruction in the patient who did not have suitable donor site in back and abdomen.Methods:In November 2024, a 25-year-old unmarried and childless woman with right breast cancer received immediate right breast reconstruction by a right free IGAPF after modified right mastectomy in the Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University. The locations of perforators were confirmed by both Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) and portable Doppler blood flow detector before surgery. The IGAPF was designed to take the inferior gluteal wrinkle as the lower edge, the axis of the flap was parallel to the inferior gluteal wrinkle, and the width of the flap was estimated where the incision could be directly closed. The size of right IGAPF was 6.0 cm×19.0 cm. Sharp dissection was performed between the sarcolemma and muscle fibres of gluteus, then the perforators were dissected along the direction of muscle fibres of gluteus. The vascular pedicle was kept at about 8.0 cm in length. The diameter of artery was about 2.0 mm and that for the veins was about 1.5 mm. End-to-end anastomoses with the right thoracodorsal artery and vein were successfully carried out. The donor site was directly closed, and it was hidden in the inferior gluteal wrinkle. Postoperative outpatient clinical review was made.Results:Pathological examination reported: an invasive carcinoma of right breast, axillary lymph node metastasis (2/10). The patient recovered well and the flap survived without any complication, i.e. ischemic necrosis, infection and haematoma. The patient was off-bed at 3 days and discharged at 13 days after surgery. At the 40 days of postoperative follow-up, the patient achieved a good recovery and the lower limb activity was not affected by the surgery. The patient was satisfied with the reconstructed breast and donor site recovery. The patient followed with scheduled chemotherapy and subsequent radiotherapy. The volume of reconstructed breast was smaller than the other breast, of which the patient was fully informed before the surgery.Conclusion:A free IGAPF provides an alternative donor sites for achieving a breast reconstruction due to the reliable pedicle vessels and invisible donor scars.

BACKGROUND:The anterior cruciate ligament has unique nonlinear mechanical properties under a complex physiological loading environment.Elastin is an important contributor to the mechanical properties of the anterior cruciate ligament,but its mechanical response to the anterior cruciate ligament under axial tension is not clear. OBJECTIVE:To quantitatively analyze the effect of elastin on the tensile mechanical response of the anterior cruciate ligament. METHODS:Elastase solution and control buffer were prepared.The porcine anterior cruciate ligament samples were prepared into small-size samples and randomly soaked in 0,0.1,1.0,2.0,5.0,and 10.0 U/mL elastase solution for 6 hours,and other small samples of the same size were soaked in 2 U/mL elastase solution for 0,1,3,6,9,and 12 hours.To determine suitable soaking conditions for elastin-targeted enzymes and verify the digestive effect,histological staining was used to compare the effects of enzyme treatment on tissue structure and composition.The ligament samples were randomly divided into elastase-treated group and PBS group,and immersed in 2 U/mL elastase solution and PBS buffer for 6 hours,respectively.A mechanical tensile test was performed before and after immersion. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The biochemical results showed that being treated in 2 U/mL elastase solution for 6 hours could reduce the elastin content by 31.1%,and had no significant effect on other mechanical-related components in the tissue.(2)The histological results showed that elastase was able to penetrate the tissue,and the loose degree of tissue increased after treatment.(3)In the mechanical results before and after treatment,the mechanical properties of the PBS group decreased significantly,only the low-tension elastic modulus increased significantly and the initial length increased significantly in the elastase-treated group.(4)The intergroup comparison results showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in pre-treatment,but the low-tension elastic modulus,initial slopes,saturated slopes,and initial length of the elastase-treated group after treatment were significantly higher than those in the PBS group.(5)These results suggest that elastin degradation significantly affects the biomechanical properties of the anterior cruciate ligament and further complements our understanding of the structure-function relationship of the anterior cruciate ligament.

AIM:This study aimed to investigate the expression and localization of ALOX12P2 in oral squa-mous cell carcinoma(OSCC),as well as its effects on cell viability,migration,and invasion.METHODS:The expres-sion of ALOX12P2 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)tissues and its correlation with clinicopathologi-cal features were analyzed using the UALCAN database(University of Alabama at Birmingham Cancer Data Analysis Por-tal).Additionally,the expression of ALOX12P2 in OSCC and its impact on survival prognosis were evaluated through the GDC and UCSC Xena databases.The expression levels of ALOX12P2 in OSCC cell lines were assessed via quantitative re-al-time PCR(RT-qPCR).The subcellular localization of ALOX12P2 was determined using nucleoplasmic RNA isola-tion.CAL-27 cells were used to establish an ALOX12P2 knockdown group(SS-ALOX12P2)and a control group(SS-NC).HN30 cells were employed to form an ALOX12P2 overexpression group(ALOX12P2)and a control group(vector).The effects of altered ALOX12P2 expression on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)-related gene E-cadherin and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were assessed through Western blot analysis.RESULTS:ALOX12P2 expression was significantly higher in HNSCC and OSCC tissues compared to normal tissues,with its expression correlating with poor prog-nosis.RT-qPCR analysis indicated that the relative expression of ALOX12P2 in OSCC cells was comparable to that in nor-mal cells(P<0.05).RNA nucleoplasmic isolation confirmed that ALOX12P2 localized in the nucleus.In comparison to the SS-NC group,the SS-ALOX12P2 group exhibited a marked reduction in ALOX12P2 expression(P<0.01),alongside significant decreases in cell viability,migration,and invasion(P<0.01).Conversely,the ALOX12P2 group showed sub-stantially higher relative expression compared to the vector group(P<0.01),with enhanced cell viability,migration,and invasion abilities(P<0.01).Western blot analysis demonstrated that ALOX12P2 knockdown resulted in upregulation of E-cadherin and downregulation of N-cadherin and Vimentin(P<0.01),while overexpression of ALOX12P2 yielded the opposite effects(P<0.01).Knockdown of ALOX12P2 led to decreased protein expression of p-PI3K and p-AKT(P<0.01),whereas overexpression increased these protein levels(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:ALOX12P2 is highly ex-pressed in OSCC and promotes cell viability,migration,and invasion.This effect may be linked to the activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway,which facilitates the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)process.
