Megestrol acetate is widely used in clinical practice and offers benefits to patients. However, it carries potential adverse effects, such as hypoadrenocorticism, which is often overlooked due to its atypical clinical manifestations. This report describes two cases of megestrol acetate-induced hypoadrenocorticism. Through a review of relevant literature, the mechanisms, clinical characteristics, and treatment strategies are summarized to enhance clinicians′ awareness of this potential complication.

Advancements in artificial intelligence(AI)and emerging technologies are rapidly expanding the exploration of chemical space,facilitating innovative drug discovery.However,the transformation of novel compounds into safe and effective drugs remains a lengthy,high-risk,and costly process.Comprehensive early-stage evaluation is essential for reducing costs and improving the success rate of drug development.Despite this need,no comprehensive tool currently supports systematic evaluation and efficient screening.Here,we present druglikeFilter,a deep learning-based framework designed to assess drug-likeness across four critical dimensions:1)physicochemical rule evaluated by systematic determination,2)toxicity alert investigated from multiple perspectives,3)binding affinity measured by dual-path analysis,and 4)compound synthesizability assessed by retro-route prediction.By enabling automated,multidimensional filtering of compound libraries,druglikeFilter not only streamlines the drug development process but also plays a crucial role in advancing research efforts towards viable drug candidates,which can be freely accessed at https://idrblab.org/drugfilter/.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of dual fluorescence laparoscopy in the localization of ureteral stricture and its blood supply，and to provide a new idea for the treatment of complex ureteral stenosis，thus helping doctors to improve the efficiency of ureteral reconstruction surgery. Methods: Our team developed a dual fluorescence laparoscopic system，which could simultaneously identify the ureter stricture by intra-ureteral injection of methylene blue (MB) and assess the blood supply of the ureteral stumps by intravenous injection of indocyanine green (ICG). Results: The clinical data of 3 patients who underwent lingual mucosa ureteroplasty using dual fluorescence laparoscopy in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University were retrospectively analyzed.All operations were successful，without conversion to open surgery.The operation time was 144，132 and 163 minutes，respectively.The length of harvested lingual mucosa graft was 2.0，2.8 and 3.5 cm，respectively.No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred.Eight weeks after operation，ureterography showed that the ureter was unobstructed. Conclusion: Dual fluorescence laparoscopy is safe and feasible in the repair of complex ureteral stricture with lingual mucosa graft，which provides a new idea for complex ureteral reconstruction.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty (LMGU) for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures in a multi-institutional cohort of patients.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series study was conducted on clinical data from 42 patients undergoing LMGU for long-segment ureteral strictures (≥5 cm) across five institutions between February 2017 and June 2024. The cohort comprised 31 males and 11 females, with an age of (43.4±12.0) years (range: 15 to 64 years) and a body mass index of (24.6±2.6) kg/m2 (range: 16.0 to 30.0 kg/m2). Strictures involved the left ureter in 24 cases and right ureter in 18 cases, demonstrating a stricture length of (6.4±1.5) cm (range: 5.0 to 11.5 cm). Surgical interventions included either onlay ureteroplasty or augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty, selected according to intraoperative findings. Intraoperative parameters, postoperative complications, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Results:Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 22 cases and robot-assisted surgery in 20 cases. Among the 42 patients, 22 underwent onlay ureteroplasty while 20 received augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty. The graft length was (5.9±1.8) cm (range: 3.0 to 12.0 cm), operative time (191.5±55.6) minutes (range: 105.0 to 350.0 minutes), and intraoperative estimated blood loss (86.7±73.6) ml (range: 10.0 to 400.0 ml). All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.6±2.0) days (range: 4.0 to 15.0 days), with double-J stent removal at 6 to 8 weeks postoperatively. During a follow-up of (49.1±25.0) months (range: 12.0 to 99.0 months), no stricture recurrence was observed in any patient.Conclusion:LMGU is a safe, feasible, and effective long-term technique for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures.

Objective:To evaluate the developmental toxicity of Cry1Ab protein by studying its effects on cell proliferation and differentiation ability using a developmental toxicity assessment model based on embryonic stem-cell.Methods:Cry1Ab protein was tested in seven dose groups(31.25,62.50,125.00,250.00,320.00,1 000.00,and 2 000.00 μg/L)on mouse embryonic stem cells D3(ES-D3)and 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells,with 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)used as the positive control and phos-phate buffer saline(PBS)as the solvent control.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay to calculate the 50％inhibitory concentration(IC50)of the test substance for different cells.Additionally,Cry1 Ab protein was tested in five dose groups(125.00,250.00,320.00,1 000.00,and 2 000.00 μg/L)on ES-D3 cells,with PBS as the solvent control and 5-FU used for model validation.After cell treatment,cardiac differentiation was induced using the embryonic bodies(EBs)culture method.The growth of EBs was observed under a microscope,and their diameters on the third and fifth days were measured.The proportion of EBs differentiating into beating cardiomyocytes was recorded,and the 50％inhibition con-centration of differentiation(ID50)was calculated.Based on a developmental toxicity discrimination func-tion,the developmental toxicity of the test substances was classified.Furthermore,at the end of the cul-ture period,mRNA expression levels of cardiac differentiation-related markers(Oct3/4,GATAA-4,Nkx2.5,and β-MHC)were quantitatively detected using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)in the collected EBs samples.Results:The IC50 of 5-FU was determined as 46.37 μg/L in 3T3 cells and 32.67 μg/L in ES-D3 cells,while the ID50 in ES-D3 cells was 21.28 μg/L.According to the discrimination function results,5-FU was classified as a strong embryotoxic substance.There were no sta-tistically significant differences in cell viability between different concentrations of Cry 1 Ab protein treat-ment groups and the control group in both 3T3 cells and ES-D3 cells(P＞0.05).Moreover,there were no statistically significant differences in the diameter of EBs on the third and fifth days,as well as their morphology,between the Cry1Ab protein treatment groups and the control group(P＞0.05).The cardi-ac differentiation rate showed no statistically significant differences between different concentrations of Cry1Ab protein treatment groups and the control group(P＞0.05).5-FU significantly reduced the mRNA expression levels of β-MHC,Nkx2.5,and GATA-4(P＜0.05),showing a dose-dependent trend(P＜0.05),while the mRNA expression levels of the pluripotency-associated marker Oct3/4 exhibited an increasing trend(P＜0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the mRNA expression levels of mature cardiac marker β-MHC,early cardiac differentiation marker Nkx2.5 and GATA-4,and pluripotency-associated marker Oct3/4 between the Cry1Ab protein treatment groups and the control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion:No developmental toxicity of Cry1Ab protein at concen-trations ranging from 31.25 to 2 000.00 μg/L was observed in this experimental model.
