Objective:To clarify the elements of post competency of public health professionals and technical personnel, and construct a post competency index system of public health professionals and technical personnel.Methods:Referring to the Hay Group Competency Dictionary and literature review method, the post competency information elements of public health professional and technical personnel were constructed, and were revised through the expert consultation method. Unit-level stratified sampling was used, and 120 public health professionals were invited to evaluate the importance of the elements. SPSS 26.0 was used for data analysis, the continuous data were expressed in ( x ± s) mode, and Pearson was used to study the degree of correlation of each dimension. Finally, the post competency index system for public health positions was constructed by using the factor analysis method to extract the common factor as the first-level index. Results:The index system contained 7 first-level indicators (43 items), including public health practice skills, clinical practice skills, professional basic subject knowledge, personal professional accomplishment, public health authority and management ability, public health leadership, and public health methodology knowledge. Its weight coefficients (%) were 20.03, 17.48, 15.89, 15.68, 13.98, 12.82 and 4.11, respectively. The elements with the highest materiality scores were personal protection, responsibility and professionalism.Conclusion:Personal protection and other public health practical skills and personal professional qualities such as sense of responsibility and professionalism are the core elements of public health positions, and it is recommended to strengthen the training of public health professionals' public health practical skills in actual work, and pay attention to the cultivation of personal professional qualities, so as to establish a better team of public health talents.

OBJECTIVE:
To carry out prenatal diagnosis for a fetus with normal ultrasonographic finding at 20 weeks' gestation but a copy number variant(CNV) of 13q indicated by non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT).
METHODS:
Karyotyping analysis and chromosomal CNV assay were carried out on the amniotic fluid sample. Parental peripheral blood sample was collected for chromosomal analysis. Detailed fetal ultrasound scan was carried out to rule out structural abnormalities of the fetus.
RESULTS:
The fetus was detected with a heterozygous 10.14 Mb deletion at 13q21.1q21.32, which has originated from the phenotypically normal mother. No apparent karyotypic abnormality was detected in the fetus and its parents. No ultrasonic abnormality was found in the fetus.
CONCLUSION
Both the fetus and its mother have carried a heterozygous 10.14 Mb deletion at 13q21.1q21.32 and presented normal phenotypes.Combined with literature review, the segmental deletion was judged to be a benign variant.

Objective:To explore the value of 3D/4D translabial ultrasound in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of female urethral diverticulum.Methods:The paired chi-square test was used to compare the diagnostic accuracy of 2D translabial ultrasound and 3D/4D translabial ultrasound in 21 suspected urethral diverticulum patients who visited the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from November 2013 to January 2020. And Kappa consistency test was used to evaluate the consistency between these two methods and the pathological results.Results:All 21 patients with suspected urethral diverticulum were diagnosed by postoperative pathology, of which 16 cases were urethral diverticula and 5 cases were paraurethral cysts. The typical appearance of urethral diverticulum on 3D/4D translabial ultrasound was a cystic structure traversing the urethral rhabdosphincter. Additionally, septa, calcification or solid neoplasm can also be seen in some cases. The sensitivity/specificity of 2D translabial ultrasound and 3D/4D translabial ultrasound were 75.00%/100% and 93.75%/100%, respectively, no statistical differences were found both in sensitivity and specificity between these two methods(all P>0.05). The Kappa consistency test showed that the consistency between 2D translabial ultrasound and pathological diagnosis was general (Kappa=0.588, P=0.003), while the consistency between 3D/4D translabial ultrasound and pathological diagnosis was good (Kappa=0.877, P<0.001). Conclusions:3D/4D translabial ultrasound has a high value in the diagnosis of female urethral diverticulum, and it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To investigate the risk and value of the dissection of bursectomy in T2 gastric cancer. Methods A total of 86 T2 gastric cancer patients were divided into dissection of bursectomy group (46 cases) and non-dissection of bursectomy group (40 cases) according to the random number table method. The age, Borrman type, tumor location, degree of differentiation, vascular tumor thrombus, operation type, lymph nodes metastasis, number of dissected lymph nodes, tumor size, blood loss during operation, operation time and postoperative complications were observed. The patients were followed up for 1 year, and the local recurrence, metastasis and survive were compared between 2 groups. Results There were no statistical differences in age, Borrman type, tumor location, degree of differentiation, vascular tumor thrombus, operation type, lymph nodes metastasis, number of dissected lymph nodes, tumor size, blood loss during operation and postoperative complications (P>0.05). No metastasis was found in anterior layer of transverse colon and pancreatic capsule in 2 groups. The operation time in dissection of bursectomy group was significantly longer than that in non- dissection of bursectomy group: (169.13 ± 37.94) min vs. (147.45 ± 30.27) min, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The patients were followed up for 1 year, and there was no local recurrence in 2 groups. There was 1 case with liver metastasis in dissection of bursectomy group, and 1 case with bony metastasis in non- dissection of bursectomy group. There was no death in 2 groups. Conclusions The dissection of bursectomy in T2 gastric cancer could be abandoned, in order to reduce the operation time, blood loss during operation, and postoperative complications.

In order to determine the chemical constituents of Cistanche deserticola cultured in Tarim desert, a systematically phytochemical investigation was carried out. The constituents were isolated by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, MCI gel, ODS column chromatography, and semi-preparative HPLC. Their structures were determined on the basis of MS and NMR spectroscopic analyses, by chemical methods, and/or comparison with literature data. The anti-inflammatory activities of the isolates were evaluated for their inhibitory effects on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in BV-2 mouse microglial cells. Nine iridoids were isolated and identified as cistadesertoside A (1), cistanin (2), cistachlorin (3), 6-deoxycatalpol (4), gluroside (5), kankanoside A (6), ajugol (7), bartsioside (8), and 8-epi-loganic acid (9). Compound 9 exhibited potent inhibition on the NO production with an IC50 value being 5.2 μmol·L(-1), comparable to the positive control quercetin (4.3 μmol·L(-1)). Compound 1 was a new iridoid, and compounds 5, 6, and 8 were isolated from this species for the first time.
