The Role of Ethnic Directors in Corporate Social Responsibility: Does Culture matter? The Cultural Trait Theory Perspectives
This paper investigates the effect of cultural differences between ethnic directors on corporate social responsibility (CSR) of Public Liability Companies (PLCs) in Nigeria. Using the cultural trait theory, the study focuses on how the ethnic directors are influenced when making decisions concerning CSR. Adopting multiple regression analysis of data, the study investigates the three major ethnic groups (Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa) and finds cultural differences between the ethnic directors affect the adoption of CSR. Empirical results indicate that ethnic directors (Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa) were positively and significantly related to CSR. The paper contributes to the corporate governance and CSR debate concerning how ethnic directorsâ decisions impact on CSR activities, particularly on the directors who are individualistic and collectivists towards CSR

Hormone-inactive pituitary macroadenoma : an uncommon cause for the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis
A 76-year-old patient was admitted with dizzy spells and fainting. Laboratory analysis indicated the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis, which was further characterized as type C ("reset osmostat"). Extended workup revealed a hormone - inactive pituitary macroadenoma. After complete transsphenoidal resection, serum sodium levels and plasma and urinary osmolality promptly normalized. Except for the gonadal axis, the anterior pituitary functions remained intact. There was no adenoma recurrence over a five-year follow-up, and repetitive testing on ad libitum fluid intake showed normal sodium concentrations. Thus, the pituitary macroadenoma represents the sole detectable cause for the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis in this patient
