Study on the Mechanism of Organic Matter Enrichment in Early Cambrian Marine Shales in the Lower Yangtze Area, South China: An Example Using Well JXY1 by Sihong Cheng, Bin Li, Kun Zhang, Weiwei Liu, Jun Peng, Mingcai Hou, Ming Wen, Qingsong Xia, Xin Wang, Xiaoxue Liu, Li Zhong, Yizhou Huang, Yongyang Liu, Muhe Yuan, Yue Yao

“…Moreover, the paleoocean in this period between the Yangtze plate and the Cathaysian plate was greatly affected by hydrothermal activities, with temperatures ranging from 90°C to 120°C. Active hydrothermal activities promoted high biological productivity and an anaerobic environment, both of which were conducive to the preservation and enrichment of organic matter, resulting in extremely high TOC content in the Wangyinpu shales (from 6.5% to approximately 16%).…”

Association of plasma vitamin A level with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a community aging population-based cross-sectional study by Pengfei Li, Jingjing Xu, Yujie Guo, Xiaojun Ma, Shaobo Zhou, Chi Zhang, Huiyan Yu, Ying Wang, Xixiang Wang, Linhong Yuan

“…Our results indicated that the imbalance of circulating lipids and VA might affect the relationship between VA and T2DM. The middle and aging subjects with higher ratios of plasma VA/TC, VA/HDL-c, and VA/LDL-c displayed increased risk for T2DM, but the moderate ratio of VA/TG might protect against risk of T2DM.…”
