Glioma is a tumor with a high incidence of intracranial tumor. Because of its high degree of malignancy, strong invasiveness and high mortality, the current conventional treatment cannot achieve the desired therapeutic effect, which greatly affects the quality of life of patients. As a protein with the functions of anti-proliferation, anti-angiogenesis and anti-invasion, interferon is widely used in the treatment of all kinds of tumors in clinic. Many studies have shown that interferon plays an important role in the occurrence and development of gliomas. To explore the mechanism of interferon and its related signal pathway in the process of glioma invasion, and to study the new treatment of glioma is very necessary in clinical treatment.

Objective To explore the relationship between infant feeding practices and infants growth,especially the weight gain for length in the first 6 months of life. Methods Two-hundred healthy full-term singlet normal birth weight 5 - 6 months old infants and their main care givers were recruited in Kongjiang community health service center in Shanghai. The questionnaires included infants feeding pattern, feeding environment and care givers feeding behaviors, and were completed on-site by investigators. The birth weight was obtained. The weight and length of infants at 6 months were measured. Results There were 70/200 (35.0%) infants overweight (BMI for age Z score>+1) at 6 months. There were more overweight boys than girls (40.0% vs. 30.9%, x2 = 1.798, P = 0.180). Compared with normal weight infants, the overweight infants had same birth weight (3.30 ± 0.35 kg vs. 3.35 ± 0.32 kg, t =1.010, P = 0.314) and same length at 6 months (67.64 ± 2.10 cm vs. 67.91 ± 1.97 cm, t=- 0.896, P = 0.371). However, the overweight infants gained much more weight for length in the first six months of life. At 6 months, the weight and BMI of overweight infants was significantly higher than that of normal weight infants (9.16 ± 0.67 vs. 7.94 ±0.64, t = 12.324, P < 0.01;19.86 ± 1.24 vs. 17.41 ± 0.80, t = 14.953, P < 0.01). The rates of exclusive breastfeeding for at least four months, continued breastfeeding at six months, complementary food consistency, and complementary feeding frequency, were not significantly differenct between overweight and normal weight infants (x2 =0.723 - 2.701, P > 0.05). The grandparents played an important role in infants feeding in Shanghai. There were 39.0% infants fed only by grandparents, and 23.0% infants fed jointly by grandparents and parents (x2 = 0.175, P > 0.05).The care givers' educational level and knowledge of feeding skill were similar in overweight and normal weight infants (x2 = 0.446, t = 0.949, P > 0.05). However, the overweight infants were fed more quickly than normal weight infants (Z = 2.753, P < 0.01), and there was less language communication between care givers and overweight infants during feeding (Z = 2.932, P < 0.01). In overweight infants, the overfeeding behaviors of care givers were positively correlated with BAZ (r = 0.281, P < 0.05). Conclusions Overweight in early life is associated with some particular infants feeding behaviors of care givers in Shanghai. The long term effect of more rapid weight gain for length in the first 6 months of life on the risk of childhood obesity warranted to be further followed and researched.

The purpose of this study was to observe whether human peripheral dervied monouncleas cells (hMNCs) could participate in the regeneration process of the ischemic hearts in the way of differentiating into cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. hMNCs were transplanted into the bodies of the mice with myocardial infarction through the tail vein injection. Hearts were harvested 2-12 weeks after injection then sliced up into frozen sections of 5 micron thickness. Double immunofluorescence staining was used to test the differentiation of the grafted cells into cardiomyocytes, smooth muscle cells and vascular endothelial cells which revealed that cells expressing both HLA and TNT, HLA and alpha-SMA, HLA and vWF existed in the hearts of the mice. According to the study, it is probable that hMNCs could participate in the regeneration process of the infarcted hearts in the way of differentiation.

This paper aimed at discussing the characteristics of blood glucose changes of type 2 diabetes according to the flow rule of Qi and Blood as well as the Hurst index of dynamic blood glucose collected by CGMS. A total of 156 T2DM patients were selected from the Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. After continuous monitoring of dynamic blood glucose for 3 consecutive days (72 hours) with CGMS, the first complete 24 hour dynamic glucose, which start at 3 to 5 am(corresponding to Lung) and end at 1 to 3 am next morning(corresponding to Liver), are used for calculating each two-hours?? Hurst index. The measurement data was set at each two-hours, and multiple groups of related sample tests (Friedman) non- parametric test methods were used for comparison between groups. The statistical significance level was set to P < 0.05. The results showed that the Hurst indices of each two-hour are all greater than 0.5. The three highest Hurst indices were: Stomach Hurst (0.960) > Heart Hurst (0.946) > Spleen Hurst (0.945), and the three lowest Hurst indices were: Lung Hurst (0.886) < Liver Hurst (0.893) < Large intestine Hurst (0.905). The standard deviation of the large intestine Hurst was the largest, reaching 0.088, and the standard deviation of the gastric Hurst was the smallest, 0.058. The distribution image of the Hurst index of individual patients at each twohours was similar to that obtained by the whole sample, but the specific time to a certain two-hours had fluctuations. The number of pairs with statistical difference between each two groups in two-hours is 29, accounting for 44% of the total number of pairs. The organs and meridians that have more differences with other two-hours are successively stomach, lung, liver, kidney, spleen and heart. The differences of the blood glucose changes at different times in patients with type 2 diabetes can be indicated by the dynamic blood glucose Hurst indices, which are calculated according to the rule of Qi and blood flow.
