Aim: Preeclampsia (PE) is a severe pregnancy-related disorder characterized by hypertension and multi-organ failure, primarily affecting the maternal vasculature and placenta. The aim of this review is to explain the molecular mechanisms behind PE by investigating the relationship between exosome release and complement activation, which could provide insight into potential therapeutic targets.
Methods: This review analyzes existing literature on the role of the complement system and exosomes in the pathophysiology of PE.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is used to treat mental disorders and explore brain function via applied electromagnetic fields generated by a high current coil placed on the subject's scalp. While TMS has been in clinical use for decades, and continues to be a rapidly expanding therapeutic modality, there are still many unknowns regarding how stimulation parameters may affect treatment efficacy and how they may be optimized. One key parameter that is readily accessible is coil orientation and its effects on TMS stimulation threshold.

Its clinical and radiological presentation mimics neoplastic disease, so diagnosis often relies on histology. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment.
