“…Road traffic accidents, falls from heights, assault, crush injuries, and closed head trauma are categorized as high energy trauma, with one point assigned per incident. Minor incidents such as trauma due to repetitive yawning, coughing, impacted lower third molar removal 16 , and rolling over during sleep 17 are examples of low energy trauma and are given a score of zero.…”

Fractures of the styloid process of the temporal bone may occur with or without an obvious relation to trauma. The incidence of either isolated styloid process fracture or in combination with mandibular fractures is rare, and such occurrences are often misdiagnosed or neglected. A fractured styloid when displaced may impinge on adjacent vital structures, leading to neurological or vascular symptoms that vary according to the anatomical structure compressed. Styloid process fractures associated with atlas/C1 fractures have also been rarely reported in the literature. In this review of literature, the majority of patients was treated conservatively, as few demonstrated the necessity of surgical intervention. There is a definitive need for a protocol to recognize and classify styloid fractures to plan for further treatment. The aim of this review was to achieve a comprehensive understanding of all types of styloid fractures, determine the clinical severity of symptoms, and to consider management and prognosis. In addition, a new classification of cervico-stylo-mandibular fractures is proposed based on important evidence in the literature regarding clinical and radiographic factors that might influence the treatment and prognosis of such fractures.

“…Among freely available ICT, Zoom Video Communications (https://zoom.us/), software that allows users to share their personal computer screens at low line speeds, and Face book (http://www.facebook.com/), a social networking service (SNS), were used with only anonymous personal data. As evidence of the academic activities supported by this system, rural physician HN prepared his first 2, previously published 3,4 English-language case reports. We evaluated the effects of this intervention using three types of analyses: qualitative analysis of semi-structured interview to the learner; quantitative analysis of the article-writing process and the number of consultations by method of communication; text-mining analysis (a method and system for dividing unconstrained collections of sentences into words and phrases using natural language analysis techniques and analyzing their occurrence frequency and correlation to extract useful information) of text data through SNS and e-mail for the consultations between the instructor and the learner.…”

Abbreviations: CPD, continuing professional development;ICT, information and communication technology; MB/S, megabytes per second; SNS, social networking service IntroductionOne of the factors for rural physicians to continue their rural practices is continuing professional development (CPD). 1 In Japan, academic training has been reported to be the most common type of CPD, followed in descending order by participation in academic meetings, academic activities including doctor of philosophy programs. 2 The use of tele-education (remote-support systems using information and communication technology (ICT) in medical education) has many advantages (e.g., travel costs and time), 1 and is rapidly developing. However, tele-education has not been available in many rural regions until recently because of insufficient communication infrastructure. In addition, no reports have described academic start-up support using tele-education "based on rural physicians' values, ways of life and self-esteem". We aimed to investigate the effects related to rural physicians' self-esteem and CPD of first-time academic activities using tele-education by a general physician belonging to general medicine department of a university. Materials and methodsOur academic remote-support system using tele-education was provided from September 2016. The learner was a rural general physician (HN) with 11 years of rural practice after his graduation. He solely, as a single physician, ran the only clinic on the western-most isolated island in Japan (population: 1,700), which had insufficient communication infrastructure (maximum Internet line speed: I.
