	Derangement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In combinatorics, a derangement is a permutation φ of a set S (i.e., a bijection from S into itself) with no fixed points, i.e., for all x in S, φ(x) ≠ x.
		One approach to counting the derangements of n elements is to use induction.
		Derangements are an example of the wider field of constrained permutations.

		Internal joint derangement has two forms: with reduction (when the disk is anterior to the condyle at rest; the misplaced disk returns to the head of the condyle for at least part of the mouth's opening-closing cycle) and without reduction (when the disk is always anterior).
		Derangement without reduction usually produces no sound, but maximum opening between the tips of the upper and lower incisors is reduced to <= 30 mm from the normal 40 to 45 mm.
		Derangement without reduction is diagnosed by having the patient open as wide as possible; the physician then exerts gentle pressure to open the mouth a little wider but cannot.

		Internal derangement of the left knee is manifested by not more than moderate instability of the left knee, productive of no more than moderate disability of the left knee.
		The criteria for a rating in excess of 20 percent for internal derangement of the left knee with arthritis are not met.
		In this regard, the veteran's internal derangement of the left knee with arthritis is not so unusual or extraordinary as to warrant extraschedular rating.

	healthyNJ--Information for Healthy Living--Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ)
		In internal joint derangement with reduction, which is the more common type (occurring in about one third of the adult population), the disk lies in front of its normal position only when the mouth is closed.
		Internal joint derangement without reduction usually produces symptoms of pain and makes it difficult for people to open their mouth wide, as is typical of most temporomandibular disorders.
		A person with internal joint derangement with or without reduction should avoid opening the mouth wide--for instance, when yawning or biting into a thick sandwich--because injured joints are not as protected in these activities as would be a normal jaw.

		Internal Derangement of the Right Knee Under the provisions of 38 U.S.C.A. § 1111, a veteran is presumed to be in sound condition at the time of entry onto active ser-vice, except for conditions noted at the time of his examination and acceptance for entry into service.

		The etiology of internal derangement is obscure, although in 25% of patients a history of trauma is elicited of which 30% of causes are iatrogenic and result, for example, from procedures that necessitate jaw extension.
		In orthopedic terminology, internal derangement is defined as soft tissue between joint surfaces interfering with the smooth action of a joint.
		Internal derangement (ie, disk displacement or deformation) and degenerative joint disease are the most common findings in patients with TMJ dysfunction (see Images 13-16); however, other abnormalities (eg, joint effusion, bone marrow edema, tumors) also may be detected.

	Test #8: Internal Derangements of the Articular Disc (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Symptoms which are presented as being diagnostic of the internal derangement and which serve to differentiate it from other mandibular dysfunctions (all of which present with pain) are: 1) limited opening, 2) limited lateral movement, 3) deviation on opening, 4) noise and 5) condylar displacement.
		The diagnosis of an internal derangement is generally made on the basis of patient history, joint radiography, and the presence of specific clinical signs and symptoms such as reciprocal clicking, limitation and/or deviation on opening.
		Obviously, this type of internal disc derangement treatment may be more deleterious to the joint apparatus than the original problem of disc displacement.

	Character Development and Player Resources
		If your new derangement is based solely on getting a rise out of other PCs or their players, you may have managed to find an inappropriate derangement. This is especially true if you've based it on something that a fellow player fears or has been touched by away from the game.
		If your first thoughts about the derangement include a phrase like "Wouldn't it be cool if..." and your second thoughts are repetitions of the first or if you never get beyond the first thought, it might be inappropriate.
		If the derangement's taken straight from popular culture or can be completely described by giving an actor's name as an example, you might wish to consider it a warning sign of an inappropriate derangement.

	Statements of Principles — Internal derangement of the knee — balance of probability (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		On the sound medical-scientific evidence available, the Repatriation Medical Authority is of the view that it is more probable than not that internal derangement of the knee and death from internal derangement of the knee can be related to relevant service rendered by veterans or members of the Forces.
		The factors that must exist before it can be said that, on the balance of probabilities, internal derangement of the knee or death from internal derangement of the knee is connected with the circumstances of a person's relevant service are:
		Paragraphs 5(b) and 5(c) apply only to material contribution to, or aggravation of, internal derangement of the knee where the person's internal derangement of the knee was suffered or contracted before or during (but not arising out of) the person's relevant service; paragraph 8(1)(e), 9(1)(e) or 70(5)(d) of the Act refers.

	68 Wn.2d 394, DARLENE HUNT et at., Respondents, v. OCCIDENTAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA, Appellant
		The trial court read clause (a) to mean that the policy excluded only such forms of mental derangement or mental sickness as required a rest cure, but covered mental illness which required active therapy.
		i.e., that it excludes treatment for all forms of mental derangement whether or not it is treatable by rest cure and any other sickness requiring a rest cure.
		We are of the opinion, therefore, that clause (a) purporting to exclude from coverage "treatment of mental derangement or sickness requiring rest cure," excludes only mental derangement and mental sickness for which rest cure would be required.
