Arthrography is one of highly accurate diagnostic tools for internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Both TM joints are connected by the mandible and one may have influence upon the other. We performed bilateral TMJ arthrograms in 42 patients with TMJ disorders to evaluate the bilaterality of internal derangements of the TMJ. The results were as follows : 1. We could not find any specificity in clinical symptoms according to each state of internal derangements of the TMJ. 2. The bilaterality of internal derangements of the TMJ was 61%. 3. Statistically, significant correlation was found in the aspects of the presence of arthrographic abnormality in both TMJ and each state of internal derangements in them. Therefore, the patients, who are diagnosed as any internal derangement of the TMJ, need to have assured examination in the contralateral joint.

Purpose: This study aims to examine the effect of intellectual capital on both internal and external collaboration and its impact on distribution performance enhancement in public sector. Research design, data, and methodology: The study applied quantitative approach with the help of AMOS Structural Equation Modelling. The unit of analysis is the Indonesian local government. The research involved 430 leaders from local government agencies as respondents. Results: This study found that intellectual capital positively influences both internal and external collaboration as well as distribution performance. Furthermore, the current research confirms the different effect of internal collaboration and external collaboration on distribution performance; internal collaboration positively affects distribution performance, while the external one does not. Eventually, internal collaboration mediates the indirect effect of intellectual capital on distribution performance, whereas the external collaboration does not. Conclusions: This study strengthens and complements the lean stream by confirming the role of intellectual capital as critical antecedent of internal collaboration, external collaboration, and distribution performance. Moreover, this research underlines the critical role of internal collaboration as the intercourse which supports distribution performance enhancement in public sector. Lastly, the study highlights the benefits of external collaboration in distribution practice if appropriately and wisely managed.

In the literature, much research has been focused on the relationships between financial policies and corporate valuation, including the effects that internal equity and capital structure have on corporate value, as well as how capital structures, investments and dividends relate to one another. However, comprehensive studies considering three facets of financial policies, namely capital structures, investments, and internal equity altogether, are scant. This study follows 361 companies listed on the Korean Stock Exchange, excluding financial institutions, from 1996 to 2002. Using 3SLS methods, an empirical analysis was conducted of the relationships among capital structures, investments, dividends, and internal equity and the results are summarized. Capital structures were found to be negatively related with investments, while investments were mainly related to dividends. Dividends were positively related with internal equity, simultaneously affecting capital structures. We were not able to find any clear evidence of a direct relationship between internal equity and capital structures; however they seemed to be indirectly related. Thus, there seems to be mutual relationships between financial policies and internal equity.

IT project teams are composed of experts from various domains with different backgrounds, such as business and technologies. Thus, enhancing knowledge sharing and increasing team social capital are critical for the success of the project. This study examines the relationship among the team social capital, team climate and team performance. A research model and hypotheses are developed from literature review and empirically validated. The research model consists of team social capital, team climate and team performance. Specifically, team social capital, as antecedents, wasconceptualized asinternal and external differentiated by team boundary, and team climate is conceptualized as innovative climate and supportive climate. Using measures adopted from previous studies, 166 data points were collected to test the research model and related hypotheses. PLS data analysis indicated that internal and external social capitalhave positive effect on innovative climate while internal social capital has a positive effect on supportive team climate. The innovative and supportive climate has significant effect on the team performance. Based on the results, we proposed several team management skills for IT project managers. Theoretical constributions are discussed at the end with limitations and further studies.

The main purpose of this study is to examine the impact of intellectual capital disclosure (ICD) on firm performance in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry of Bangladesh. In this study, 21 listed pharmaceutical and chemical companies have been selected as sample for 2016 and 2017. This study used the intellectual capital disclosure index developed by Rahman, Sobhan, and Islam. Return on assets and return on equity have been used as the proxy variable of firm performance. In this study, content analysis is performed to assess the level of disclosure regarding intellectual capital and pooled cross-sectional analysis is used to assess the relationship between ICD and firm performance. The study has found a positive and significant relationship between ICD and firm performance. Besides, an in-depth analysis of this study shows that all the components of ICD namely internal capital disclosure, external capital disclosure, and human capital disclosure are also positively and significantly associated with firm performance. The study suggests the development of an intellectual capital disclosure framework by the regulatory authority for mandatory compliance. This will improve the quality and quantity of ICD in the annual reports. Besides, firms should more emphasize on ICD which will help to improve their performance.

Valproic acid is one of the most common antiepileptic drugs used for the treatment of several seizure disorders. A 20-year-old man presented with a sudden decline of consciousness. He had a neurosurgery operation for intracranial and intraventricular hemorrhage. Following surgery, antiepileptic medication was administered to the patient in order to control his seizure events. On valproic acid treatment, he began to complain of fever and dyspnea. His symptoms persisted despite receiving empirical antibiotic treatment. All diagnostic tests for infectious causes were negative. A high-resolution computed tomography scan of the chest revealed predominantly dependent consolidation and ground-glass opacities in both lower lobes. The primary differential was drug associated with interstitial lung disease. Therefore, we discontinued valproic acid treatment and began methylprednisolone treatment. His symptoms and radiologic findings had significantly improved after receiving steroid therapy. We propose that clinicians should be made aware of the potential for valproic acid to induce lung injury.

The government is in the process of pursuing various resident-driven rural development projects for rural development. Accordingly, the government is promoting various software projects to enhance social capital in order to effectively involve residents in rural development projects. However, residents' participation in rural development projects is still passive, while passive residents' involvement creates various problems such as conflicts among residents in the process of project implementation and poor operation after project implementation. This study is intended to be a basis for inducing voluntary community participation in rural development projects by disclosing the intention of residents to participate in the community's internal solidarity with social capital and connection with external communities. According to the analysis of 195 rural residents, three groups were divided according to the level of social capital awareness. While individualist groups with low integration and social capital were 25.1%, they were more integrated, but the average family-oriented group was 42.5%, and social-development groups with high integration and linked social capital were 32.3%. This study is meaningful in that it revealed that the social capital of the resident community is an important factor in both the internal solidarity (integrity) and the external community connection (connectivity) in the rural area development project.

The main purpose of this paper is to examine changes in internal migration patterns during 1960 - 1990 period, and to analyze population movement to and from the Capital Region. The overall mobility rate of the whole Korean population has heen increasing since the 1960s, and reached to 24.6% in 1985 - 90 period. The most interesting changes in the migration pattern is that Seoul lost its population through migration during 1985 - 90, mainly due to heavy outmigration to Kyonggi province. The analysis of characteristics of inmigrants to the Capital Region reveals that those moved to Seoul are more likely to be young, better educated, never married and engage in service sector in comparison with migrants moved to the suburban districts and the outlying Kyonggi province. However, on the whole migrants moved to the Capital Region are overrepresented in manufacturing sector, which suggests that more effective policy measures to control the growth of manufacturing sector in the Capital Region is called for.

Craniopharyngiomas are rare primary intracranial tumors. Despite their benign histological appearance, they are often associated with an unfavorable prognosis. The typical manifestations upon diagnosis are headache, visual impairment, polyuria/polydypsia, growth retardation, disturbance of pubertal development, and significant weight gain. The treatment options include radical surgery or radiotherapy, or a combination of these modalities. Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is the most common adolescent hip disorder. SCFE occurs when the capital femoral epiphysis displaces posteriorly on the femoral neck at the level of the physis. The etiology of SCFE is thought to be multifactorial and may include obesity, growth surges, and less common endocrine disorders. The related endocrine disorders include hypothyroidism, growth hormone supplementation, hypogonadism, and panhypopituitarism. Reported herein is a case of panhypopituitarism caused by craniopharyngioma combined with SCFE.
