Albinism is a disease caused by partial or complete failure of melanin production in the skin, hair and eyes despite the presence of normal number, structure and distribution of melanocytes. Typical aspects are white-colored skin, blonde-brown hair, blue-brown irides and a prominent red reflex. Three main categories of albinism are oculocutaneous, ocular and localized albinism, and also they are divided into many subgroups. Therefore, appropriate treatment plan and dental direction would be differentiated according to them. This case report was about oral conditions and treatment of the oculocutaneous albinism patient with mental retardation who was refered due to developmental delay of teeth and treated with teeth extraction, restoration and space maintenance etc.

Histological study of normal and albinic catfish Silurus asotus produced in aquaculture has been carried out on organs such as the eye, the barbel, the dorsal fin, and the skin (including dorsal, ventral and lateral regions). Although individuals have no differences in morphological appearance, their colors showed clear difference as follows: the normal catfishes were black overall, but the albinic ones have a yellowish-white color over the whole body, red eyes and white barbels. All the organs investigated were fundamentally very similar in structure. Regarding the distribution and density of the melanin pigments, however, the albinic catfish have no melanin in the skin and eye, particularly in the basement membrane of the epidermis and the pigment epithelial layer in the retina, while the normal catfish have lots of melanin. This phenomenon may coincide with the so-called $i^1/i^1$ type of oculocutaneous albinism.

Histological examination of an individual of the Korean slender gudgeon Squalidus gracilis majimae having cutaneous albinism produced rarely in the wild was made and compared with a normal individual. The external body of the albino was colorless, differing from the normal individual, which has dense brownish black spots over its body surface. To make it clear through histological study, we observed eight skin regions: dorsal, lateral, ventral, upper caudal peduncle, lower caudal peduncle, dorsal fin, anal fin, and the eyes. These regional skins were the same in fundamental structure between albinic and normal gudgeon, but there were significant differences in distribution and development of pigment cells (melanins). In the normal gudgeon, the pigment cells were well developed over the regional skins except on the skin from the ventral region. However, it was confirmed in the albino that the pigment cells were vestigial over the upper regions of the eye and body but absent in the ventral region, lower caudal peduncle, and anal fin.

During an artificial breeding as a part of restoration of the endangered Korean bitterling Acheilognathus signifer, a small number of individuals exhibiting oculocutaneous albinism were produced. We compared the pigmentation and morphology of normal and albinic bitterlings by histological examination of skin samples obtained from 10 regions on the body, fins, and eyes. There were no differences in morphometry and in general morphology of skin between them. In normal bitterlings, pigment cells were better developed in the dorsal region, the upper part of caudal peduncle region, the choroid-retinal epithelium and iris than in other areas. In the albinic bitterling, however, pigment cells were present only in three parts of the dorsal region, the caudal and dorsal fin, which had few melanin cells. Albinic bitterlings also displayed deficient pigmentation in the choroid-retina pigment epithelium and iris. Although they had different pigmentation aspects in distribution and development between normal and albinic bitterlings, melanin cells were mainly present in the dorsal regions of the skin and eyes where are exposed directly to light.

우울증은 감정을 조절하는 뇌의 기능의 변화가 생겨 부정적인 감정이 나타나는 병이다. 불안장애와 우울증은일반인구중 15%가 평생 동안 한번 이상 앓는 질환이다. 우울증환자는 일반인보다 불안한감정의 원인인 델타파가 많거나 좌측 전두엽의 알파파가 증가하고, 우측 전두엽은 베타파가 증가하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 선행연구에서는 백색잡음을 우울증환자의 증상완화에 사용하였다. 우울증 환자에게는 백색잡음보다는 유색(갈색)잡음이 치료에 더 효과적인 연구를 기반으로 하여 무음 상태, 갈색잡음, 고주파 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음, 청감특성을 고려한 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음을 들었을 때 의 뇌파에 대하여 살펴보았다. 그 중 갈색잡음과 청감특성을 고려한 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음의 경우가 가장효과가 좋았다.

에이즈 환자에게서 흔히 나타나는 구강 내 병변은 충치, 구강칸디다증, 구강 모상 백반증(oral hairy leukoplakia),재발성 아프타성 구내염(recurrent aphthous stomatitis),재발성 포진성 구내염(recurrent herpetic stomatitis),치주염, 카포시 육종, 비호치킨성 림프종 등이다. 이 중 에이즈 환자에게 비교적 특징적인 병변은 구강 칸디다증, 입안털백색판증, 카포시 육종 등이지만 일반인들에서 흔히 관찰되는 충치라고 하더라도 치주염이나 농양으로 빠르게 진행한다면 에이즈를 의심해 보아야 하며, 반복적인 아프타성 궤양이나 포진성 궤양이 유달리 크고 오래 지속된다면 역시 에이즈의 가능성을 생각해 봐야 한다. 구강 병소는 에이즈 환자에게서 흔히 발견되며 이 질환의 초기 상태를 제시할 수 있다는데 의의가 있다.

Waardenburgs syndrome is estimated to account for 1 to 7% of all congenital deafness. The primary features of the syndrome include lateral displacement of the medial canthi and lacrimal punctae, a flat nasal root, white forelock, unilateral or bilateral congenital deafness, some degree of heterochromia of the iris, and hyperplasia of the eyebrow. This syndrome was described at first by Waardenburg in 1951, and since that time there have been reports of the same syndrome in both the English (Partington, 1959) and American (Di George) literature. The authors have experienced 3 cases of Waardenburgs syndrom, and report these cases with literature review.

Attempts were made to determine the clinical features and the causative organism of ringworm occurred in a cat in Chinju city, Korea. Alopecia and greyish white crusty lesions were observed around the eye, nose and posterior limb while irregular, partial loss of hairs and white scales were in the ear, neck and abdomen lesions. Direct microscopic and cultural examination were carried out for the hairs and crusts taken from the skin lesions, and the causative organism was identified as M. canis.

Fentanyl intoxication has occasionally been reported since fentanyl patches became available for medical use. Delayed post-hypoxic leukoencephalopathy is a complication of hypoxia. However, its neuropsychiatric symptoms can be delayed, and it can progress to leukoencephalopathy even after full recovery from coma due to acute intoxication. Herein, we report a case of fentanyl intoxication in a 65-year-old man who was presented to the hospital because of unconsciousness for 13 hours after using ten fentanyl patches simultaneously. Initial brain CT findings were non-specific. Twenty days later, delayed neuropathologic symptoms manifested, and MRI showed bilaterally symmetrical, heterogeneous, confluent high signal intensities on T2-weighted/fluid attenuated inversion recovery MRI in the cerebral white matter with diffusion restriction. This was followed by rapid exacerbation of neuropathological symptoms with diffuse severe cerebral atrophy over 1 year.
