Self linking - loss of link juice?

[templatemonster]

There are 10 links on page that point to this page where they exist (link to the page itself). Does it influence on ranking? And what's happening to link juice? How does it spread? Is there any loss of it?

Could you show us an example of what you're talking about? Depending on what kind of link, it may be innocuous (like example.com/# for referencing a different section of a page) or pointless and harmful (like if the page example.com/X has an in-text link to example.com/X).

Bryan is right. More details will be needed to determine what you're asking, but there is plenty of research on site here about the onpage variety of links (#). For example: http://moz.com/ugc/the-true-potential-of-anchor-links-  These are both useful to search engines and users.

For example, on this page http://www.templatemonster.com/ there are such blocks of "Sign In", "Help & Support" (on the top from the right side) and so on, and they are made with the help of JavaScript. They contain such links as <a <="" span="">href="</a>#"... 
For instance:
<a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">href</a><a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">="</a>#" id="your-account-link">Hello, class**="icon-arrow-small-down">**

<a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">href</a><a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">="</a>#" class="sign-out-btn" id="signout-link">class="sign-out">Sign Out

<a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">href</a><a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">="</a>#" class="sign-in" id="signin-link">Sign Inclass****="icon-arrow-small-down">

<a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">href</a><a <span="" class="html-attribute-name">="</a>#">Help & Supportclass****="icon-arrow-small-down">

I don't see any reason why those would be harmful, since they're not actually links - they're references to JavaScript itself. That means that it's not going to affect rankings or anything of the sort. But it also seems unnecessary to use JS for a menu in that way. Users aren't going to notice or care, but I think it's an odd choice from a UI perspective.
