Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the urethra is an extremely rare malignancy with a poor outcome, mainly affecting females in old age. We present the case of a 42-year-old female patient who presented with progressively worsening lower urinary tract symptoms, leading to a cystoscopy-guided core needle biopsy diagnosis of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the urethra. We will mainly discuss the cross-sectional imaging and pathological aspects of the case.

Severe postoperative mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation was the cause, and redo surgery for both valves resolved the acute issues.

- Sorghum anthracnose, caused by the fungus Colletotrichum sublineola, significantly affects global sorghum productivity, making the identification and introgression of resistant genotypes imperative for improvement.
- Field experiments on 358 sorghum accessions in Ethiopia uncovered 53 resistant accessions and 213 with varying resistance to local pathogens, leading to a genome-wide association study (GWAS) identifying 38 genetic loci linked to anthracnose resistance.
- Notably, specific SNPs associated with genes related to immune responses were identified, suggesting targeted genes for further breeding efforts to enhance resistance in sorghum cultivars.
This study aimed to determine whether the Mayo adhesive probability (MAP) score could predict perioperative outcomes in transperitoneal laparoscopic total adrenalectomy (LTA) and laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy (LPA). The clinical data of 139 patients who underwent transperitoneal LTA ( = 116) or LPA ( = 23) between March 2013 and September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the images obtained from preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, the patients were divided into two groups: the low MAP score group (0-1 points) and the high MAP score group (2-5 points).
