STUDY OBJECTIVE: determine the level of medical care required for mass gatherings and describe the types of medical problems encountered in a religious mass gathered ceremony. DESIGN: Standard charts and a four-tiered triage system(minor, moderate, urgent, and emergent) were developed before the event. The triage system was applied to each chart retrospectively by a single emergency physician. SETTING: Medical staff(10 physicians,13 nurses,1 pharmacist, and 54 first-aid attendants) were based in 8 advanced life support (ALS) clinics. INTERVENTIONS: First-aid attendants referred patients to the clinics, where nurses conducted initial assessments and referred patients to physicians at the venue. Three ambulances were stationed at the venues. RESULT: 22 trauma patients were developed and 183 medical complaints were encountered. Only 7 urgent medical problems were encountered.

Congenital Hypothyroidism*

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease. It is characterized by the dysregulated growth of kidney cysts, resulting in end-stage kidney failure. By identifying the genes involved in ADPKD and detailing the molecular pathology of the disease, putative therapeutic agents have been developed. However, clinical trials of vasopressin receptor antagonists and somatostatin analogues have raised several concerns among researchers and clinicians. Questions regarding when and who to treat and what surrogate marker to use for describing endpoints have been raised. This review focuses on the current methods for managing ADPKD and describes recent findings from clinical trials. The main difficulties associated with implementing therapeutic agents in patients with ADPKD and considerations for clinical settings will also be discussed.
