Metacarpal Bone Plane Examination by Ultrasonography for the Diagnosis of Fetal Forearm and Hand Deformity

Scientific Reports (2017)

Leiping Zhou Mingli Lv Min Zeng Yun Zhou Yang Tian

Abstract We explored the value of the metacarpal bone plane in screening for serious fetal forearm and hand deformities, excluding simple polydactyly and dactylion deformity, by ultrasonographic examination. Observed the second to fifth metacarpal bone plane of fetuses in 20,139 pregnant women at a gestational age of 16 to 30 weeks in The International Peace Maternity & Child Health Hospital of China Welfare Institute (IPMCH). There was a total 138 cases of fetal forearm and/or hand deformity among the 20,139 pregnant women. Of these, 134 cases were diagnosed, 4 cases were not diagnosed, and 1 case was misdiagnosed. Among the 134 diagnosed cases, there were 19 cases of hand absence, 5 cases of cleft hand, 13 cases of ectrodactyly, 26 cases of radius absence, 9 cases of forearm and hand dysplasia, 55 cases of thanatophoric dysplasia, 6 cases of wrist joint dysplasia, and 1 case of forearm amputation deformity. The deformity rate was 0.76%, the diagnostic coincidence rate was 99.97%, the sensitivity was 97.10%, the specificity was 99.99%, and the false negative rate was 2.9%. As such, careful observation of the metacarpal bone plane can be used increase the diagnosis rate of fetal forearm and hand deformity.

Micropaleontological and Isotopic Perspective of Surface Water Mass Variability in the NE Atlantic from MIS 6 to 5e (188 to 115 ka)

Geosciences (2023)

Harunur Rashid Jiaxin Chen Mary Menke Min Zeng

The penultimate glaciation (marine isotope stage (MIS) 6) is considered regionally extreme compared to the last glacial maximum, in which the European ice sheets had a vast areal extent. In contrast to the last deglaciation (19–7 ka), the penultimate deglaciation (140–130 ka) hosts one of the most rapid oceanographic changes of the late Pleistocene. In this study, we reconstructed changes in the near-surface and thermocline in the central to northeast Atlantic by analyzing sediments from two Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 306 sites. Sites U1313 (41°00.6′ N, 32°57.4′ W) and U1314 (56°21.9′ N, 27°53.3′ W) were drilled on the eastern flank of the mid-Atlantic ridge and Gardar Drift of the eastern subpolar North Atlantic, respectively. We analyzed planktonic foraminiferal assemblages, ice-rafted debris (IRD), and oxygen isotopes in two planktonic foraminifers, Globigerina bulloides, and Globorotalia inflata, from MIS 6 to 5e (185–115 ka). Warmer and colder sea-surface conditions were marked by a change in the relative abundance of polar, subpolar, and transitional planktonic foraminifers. Oxygen isotopes in G. bulloides and G. inflata suggest that the thermocline deepened at the subtropical Site U1313 during MIS 6. The lack of Globorotalia inflata prevented us from profiling the mixed layer and thermocline at the subpolar Site U1314. In contrast to MIS 6, the mixed layer and thermocline were re-stratified during the last interglacial. The lack of major IRD events at both sites suggests the stability of the Laurentide ice sheet during MIS 6 compared to the subsequent glaciation. The presence of Heinrich event 11 indicates the discharge of freshwater that freshened the sea surface, resulting in mixing between the mixed layer and thermocline. Our results were placed into a broader context using published data that shed light on the sensitivity of freshwater discharge to the North Atlantic and the following changes with a transition from a penultimate glacial to an interglacial period in surface circulation.

Early Eocene A-type (ferroan) rhyolites in southwestern Tibet: A far-field tectonic effect of the India–Eurasia collision

Figshare (2022)

Chenwei Li Zhijun Li Min Zeng Robert J. Stern

Eocene igneous rocks along the Gangdese belt in southern Tibetan Plateau are important for understanding the India–Eurasia collision and Tibetan Plateau uplift. These magmatic rocks are widely considered to be related to roll-back or break-off of the Neotethyan slab during northward subduction. However, Eocene rhyolites in the northwestern Gangdese belt (SW Qiangtang margin) do not fit either the rollback or breakoff models. This paper investigates these Early Eocene lavas and compares them with contemporaneous igneous rocks along the Gangdese belt via detailed field observations, petrology, zircon geochronology, zircon Lu–Hf isotopes and whole-rock geochemistry. These felsic lavas form large outcrops in western Tibet and have two zircon U–Pb ages of 54.71 ± 0.14 Ma and 54.74 ± 0.27 Ma. They have high SiO₂ and alkali contents, FeO*/MgO, and Ga/Al ratios as well as strongly negative Eu anomalies and slightly positive zircon εHf(t) values (+2.5 to +4.4). Both Ti-in-zircon and Zr saturation thermometers confirm high magmatic temperatures (~900°C). They are ferroan, A-type rhyolites. Furthermore, the distinctive low εHf(t) values imply that these rhyolites are likely partial melting products of the southwestern Qiangtang Terrane. The lithosphere in this region undergone long-term shortening and thickening since 80–95 Ma. Pre-thickened lithosphere may be a prerequisite for the Early Eocene delamination, and the simultaneous inducement is a far-field tectonic effect from the India–Eurasia collision. We suggest that: (1) India collided with Eurasia before 55 Ma and triggered delamination to form the Shiquanhe A-type rhyolites on the southwestern Qiangtang margin thereafter; and (2) tectonic stresses related to India–Eurasia collision during the Eocene were transmitted efficiently over large distances.

Sea-Surface Characteristics of the Newfoundland Basin of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean during the Last 145,000 Years: A Study Based on the Sedimentological and Paleontological Proxies

Applied Sciences (2021)

Harunur Rashid Qian Lü Min Zeng Yang Wang Zhao Wu Zhang

Dramatic changes occur in the sea-surface characteristics (i.e., temperature and salinity) and freshwater input due to the interaction of cold and fresh Labrador Current and warm and salty North Atlantic Current (NAC) on the southeast Grand Banks. As a result, the biological productivity and seasonal stratification of the upper water masses are intensified. Such changes must have been more dramatic during the glacial times due to the penetration of the Polar and Arctic fronts and southward migration of the Gulf Stream/NAC. However, the extent to which such changes impacted the sea-surface characteristics in the Newfoundland Basin is poorly known. We report changes in the sea-surface characteristics using a piston core (Hu9007-08) collected from the Milne seamount during the last 145,000 years. Heinrich layers H1, H2, H4, and H5 and H11 within the MIS3 and at the penultimate deglaciation were identified by the ice-rafted detritus (IRD) and Neogloboquadrina pachyderma peaks and lighter oxygen isotopes. Rapid turnover by the foraminiferal species with distinct depth habitats and ecological niches in the mixed-layer and thermocline suggests an interplay between the polar and subpolar water masses during the Heinrich and non-Heinrich periods. Only two North Atlantic-wide cooling events, C24 and C21, in which the latter event linked to the minor IRD event during the marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 in Hu90-08, compared to the eight events in the eastern subpolar gyre (e.g., ODP site 984). Millennial-scale N. pachyderma variability in the western subpolar gyre appears to be absent in the eastern subpolar gyre during the MIS3 suggesting the occasional presence of salty and warm water by the NAC inflow, implying a different climate state between the western and eastern subpolar gyre. Although T. quinqueloba data are fragmentary, there are differences between the western and eastern subpolar gyre in addition to the differences within the western subpolar gyre during MIS5 that might imply a variable influence by the subpolar water. This finding suggests that the influence by the NAC outweighs the impact of cold and fresh polar water in the northern northwest Atlantic during the MIS5.
