However, arterial biomechanics in preeclampsia may only not cope with hemodynamic demands of pregnancy but also impose additional detrimental loads to the maternal heart ("impaired left-ventricle-aorta coupling") and transmit pressure and flow disturbances into the fetoplacental circulation ("impaired large arteries-microcirculation coupling"). In this review, we analyze the major role of the arterial dysfunction in the cardiovascular maladaptation hypothesis of preeclampsia, shed light on its potential etiopathogenic link, and discuss the complementary nature of the placental and cardiovascular theories.A link between heart failure (HF) and low thyroid hormone (TH) function has been known for over a century. Nonetheless, there is a general belief that TH treatment of patients with HF may not be worth the risk. This is largely based on two clinical trials where heart patients were treated with excessive doses of TH analogs, not actual THs. Further complicating the matter is the fact that normalization of THs in noncardiac patients can often be challenging. This issue is not going away as noted by a steady increase in TH-HF citations in recent years. In this article, we discuss what we know and how we may move the field forward.A novel and convenient method has been developed for the facile synthesis of functionalized succinimide derivatives via intramolecular Alder-ene reaction of 1,6-enynes. This reaction features mild and metal-free reaction conditions, which offers a green and efficient entry to synthetically important succinimide scaffolds. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that a diradical intermediate might be involved in this transformation.Unsymmetrical disulfides have been eff
