Recent Advances in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Gestational diabetes mellitus is one of the most common pregnancy-related complications. Gestational diabetes mellitus poses a significant threat to maternal health and offspring development, including shoulder dystocia, preterm birth, maternal hypertension and ischemic heart disease, constituting a major public health crisis. Given the serious adverse outcomes of gestational diabetes mellitus, there is an urgent need to further explore new prediction tools of early pregnancy. The exact reasons for the development of gestational diabetes mellitus remain inconclusive. Pathological mechanisms underlying gestational diabetes mellitus have been mainly attributed to β cell impairment. However, the underlying mechanisms of gestational diabetes mellitus have not been elucidated. In identifying risk factors and biomarkers in early pregnancy can provide more basis for clinical diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus in the future.

Give Me Life
Chicanismo, the idea of what it means to be Chicano, was born in the 1970s, when grassroots activists, academics, and artists joined forces in the civil rights movimiento that spread new ideas about Mexican American history and identity. The community murals those artists painted in the barrios of East Los Angeles were a powerful part of that cultural vitality, and these artworks have been an important feature of LA culture ever since. This book offers detailed analyses of individual East LA murals, sets them in social context, and explains how they were produced. The authors, leading experts on mural art, use a distinctive methodology, analyzing the art from aesthetic, political, and cultural perspectives to show how murals and graffiti reflected and influenced the Chicano civil rights movement. This publication is made possible in part by a generous contribution from Furthermore, a program of the J. M. Kaplan Fund.

Mexico and Mexicans in the Making of the United States
Mexico and Mexicans have been involved in every aspect of making the United States from colonial times until the present. Yet our shared history is a largely untold story, eclipsed by headlines about illegal immigration and the drug war.

Combining historical, sociological, and cultural perspectives, the contributors to this volume exp...
