The importance of molecular characters when morphological variability hinders diagnosability: systematics of the moon jellyfish genus Aurelia (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)

Cryptic species have been detected across Metazoa, and while no apparent morphological features distinguish them, it should not impede taxonomists from formal descriptions.We accepted this challenge for the jellyfish genus Aurelia, which has a long and confusing taxonomic history.We demonstrate that morphological variability in Aurelia medusae over

Personalized information system for the control of tuberculosis in resource-limited settings: A simplistic proposal approach

Passive case finding remains the mainstay of tuberculosis (TB) control in several resource-limited countries.Although TB prevalence and mortality rates have declined in recent years, an estimated 3 million cases a year still go undetected and/or unreported, and delays in the diagnosis and treatment of TB continue to be widespread.It has been shown
