Pearly penile papules are common but not commonly seen in a physician's office. These multiple, white, coronal papules are rarely, if ever, the source of a disease but may cause the adolescent and young adult patient some surprise when they are first noticed. "Discovery" may occur after careful self-examination following suspected contact with venereal disease, sexual exposure, masturbation, or other situations that may be associated with anxiety. Frequently, the patient believes that the lesions originated "overnight"; this is never the case and usually represents inaccurate observation. Lesions of pearly penile papules are characteristic in morphology and locale. They occur exclusively in postpubertal patients. Neinstein and Goldenring1 found pearly penile papules in 23 of 151 (15.2%) boys and men ranging from 11 to 22 years of age. Lesions were not noted in patients less than 14 years old or with a sexual maturity rating less than a Tanner 3. Glicksman and Freeman2 examined 229 men and found these lesions in 45 (20%). There does not appear to be any racial tendency, and whereas one series found a greater percentage in uncircumcised patients,2 a second could not substantiate this possibility.1 Although no surveys have been done in prepubertal patients, it is my clinical impression that these lesions do not occur in this age group.

CDC Buryu, a late maturing oilseed flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), was registered in 2016 by the Crop Development Centre, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. This cultivar had yield (106%) comparable to CDC Bethune and a maturity rating equal to Flanders in all soil zones of the Northern Prairies. The yield advantage over CDC Bethune was greater (>8%) in the Brown soil and Black soil zones of the Northern Prairies. It had medium oil content, oil quality, and seed size and good lodging resistance. It is immune to North American rust (race 371) caused by Melampsora lini and moderately resistant to wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Lini and powdery mildew caused by Oidium lini.

Background: Adolescence is an important stage in the growth and development of girls. There has been a change in sectorial trend in the onset of puberty menarche. Thus, this study is designed to study the change in sectorial trend. In this background the study has been framed with these objectives, to correlate the attainment of menarche among the subjects in relation to their mothers and to study the sexual maturity rating among the study subjects.Methods: This is a cross sectional observation study involving 70 female adolescent girls. Data was collected from study subjects admitted in the department of Pediatrics, KIMS Hospital and those visiting KIMS OPD during September 2018 to February 2019. Study Subjects were examined by the female investigator and data on anthropometry, Tanner SMR staging, and other examination findings were collected using a pretested standardized questionnaire, after taking the consent. Subjects were divided based on the age into six groups.Results: The mean age of attainment of menarche is 12.36 years and mean age at menarche in mothers was 14.18 years. In this study the earliest age of attainment of menarche is 10 years. In our study most of the subjects attained menarche between 12-13 years, which is earlier than the age of attainment of menarche in the mothers which was 14-15 years. All the subjects who attained menarche were in SMR Breast stages 3, 4 and 5 and pubic hair stages 2, 3, 4 and 5.Conclusions: There is a positive correlation between the ages of attainment of menarche in the mothers and the subjects in this study it is found that there is a positive correlation between age, weight, height and SMR Stages.

Introduction: Usually, onset of thelarche heralds puberty. Delayed puberty is worrisome and needs medical attention. Our patient in her late adolescence presented with primary amenorrhea, whose evaluation left us surprised. Case report: An eighteen-year-old scholastically backward girl, presented with complaints of not attaining menarche. Physical examination included a height of 156 cm(10th-25thcentile),weight 51 kg(50th centile), wide carrying angle, multiple nevi and a broad chest, however no other Turner stigmata was noted. Her sexual maturity rating (SMR) was A2P2B1 Laboratory investigations revealed increased gonadotropins (FSH:77mIU/ml; LH:25.4mIU/ml), low estradiol (14 pg/ml) and vitamin-D deficiency (21ng/ml). Ultrasonography of abdomen-pelvis showed small infantile uterus with streak ovaries. Karyotype (50 metaphases) demonstrated mosaicism [47,XXX (29)/45,X(19)/46,XX(2)]. Hormone replacement therapy and vitamin D replacement was initiated. Conclusion: 30-40% of the Turner syndrome are mosaics, the most common being 45,X/46,XX. Mosaicism is the presence of 2 or more cell lines with different chromosomal constitutions. The cell lines are derived due mostly to postzygotic mitotic nondisjunction. X/XX/XXX can present with or without classical turner stigmata. Trisomy X has a spectrum of presentation from normal menses and fertility to recurrent abortions and primary/secondary amenorrhea (primary ovarian insufficiency). Varied clinical phenotype due to three cell lines in a Turner mosaic makes this case unique.

e13563 Background: In Argentina, half of the media content reaches viewers through streaming platforms. This papers studies the frequency of smoking in fifty of the most watched programs on Netflix Argentina, and the average exposure to this habit in one hour of viewing. Methods: Between October 1, 2019, and January 10, 2020, we observed fifty of the most watched series on Netflix Argentina, set in the twentieth century or afterwards. The programs were grouped by Netflix Maturity Rating to analyze the frequency of smoking in shows available to different age groups. We established if smoking was present in the show and randomly selected one episode of each to time the amount of smoking. All times were standardized to 60 minutes to compare episodes of different duration. Results: Table shows the frequency of smoking in each of the Netflix Maturity Rating categories. The average exposure time to smoking is 2.5 minutes (r = 0-8 min) every 60 minutes. Conclusions: 1) Viewers are exposed to smoking in 64% of the most watched series on Netflix Argentina, for an equivalent of time to at least three tobacco advertisements per hour. 2) Smoking takes place in 50% to 73% of the series available to teenage viewers (rated 13+ or 16+). 3) Netflix has publicly committed to eradicate smoking from its series. We must ensure this commitment is fulfilled and extended to other streaming platforms and production companies. [Table: see text]
