Trapania safracornia Fahey, 2004, sp. nov.
No full textTrapania safracornia sp. nov. (Figures 1–4) Type material. Holotype: CASIZ 156067. North side, Rottnest Island, Western Australia, Australia, 32.00S, 115.30E, collected by G. Gunness, 12 April 2001, 28 m. Paratype: CASIZ 162641. From type locality. Additional specimens not collected: Two specimens, from type locality, photographed by G. Gunness, February 2004. Distribution. This species is known only from the type locality. Etymology. The specific name safracornia is taken from the Arabic safra meaning yellow and the Latin cornus meaning horn. The name refers to the yellow processes on this new species. External Morphology. Living animals 7 and 8 mm in length. Body shape soft, elongate; plump midsection (Figs 1 A, B). No distinct mantle edge. Elongate processes next to each rhinophore and on each side of the gill, curving upwards, towards posterior of animal. Gill and rhinophores not retractile, no rhinophore or gill pockets. Gill composed of three bi or tripinnate branchial leaves. Anus situated within circle formed by gill branches. Long rhinophores with 9–10 lamellae on posterior side. Two long tapered oral tentacles, anterior edge of foot extends to elongate tapered corners and curved leading edge (Fig 1 C). Genital aperture located on right side of body in anterior third. Brown background color of living animal with symmetrical white patches between rhinophores, at gill, tail tip and posterior third of dorsum (Fig 1 C). White patch at gill saddleshaped and patch at rhinophores extends only posteriorly in two points. No white spots in addition to large white patches on dorsum. Irregularly shaped overlay of yellow pigment on white patch at posterior third of dorsum and on tail tip. Yellow pigment covers white ground color of elongate processes next to gill and rhinophores. White ring around rhinophoral apertures. Translucent rhinophore stalks with red club and white tips. Translucent gill branches with pinkishtan apex. No distinguishing color on axes. Ventral side with long white patch extending length of animal, three symmetrical extensions of white color up body sides (Fig 1 D). White oral tentacles, foot corner extensions. Redbrown anterior of foot. Internal Anatomy. Oval buccal bulb (Fig 2 A), small buccal pump and not as prominent as compared to other Trapania species (Rudman 1987). Tiny seedshaped oral glands around the mouth. Radular formula 21 x 1.0. 1 in both specimens (CASIZ 156067, 162641). Teeth increase in size from oldest to newest (Fig 3 A). Rachidian teeth absent. One long cusp on outer edge of each tooth with multiple large denticles (10–14) that vary in size, smallest located near inner edge (Fig 3 B). Largest of main denticles always second or third from main cusp. In between largest denticles 1–2 minute denticles, up to eight per tooth. Largest cusp at outer edge of tooth with one small broadly triangular denticle at base of outer edge (Fig 3 C). Jaw, a thickened plate with two rows of pointed rodlets around open edge (Fig 3 D). Ampulla large, nearly round (Fig 4), branches into oviduct and prostate. Hermaphroditic duct enters ampulla terminally. Thin oviduct enters large female gland mass. Thick tubular prostate folds once after exiting ampulla, narrows into short, muscular deferent duct. Deferent duct widens into elongate penis. Sparse, small spines in distal portion of penis. Vaginal duct twice as long as deferent duct, lacks spines. Vaginal duct enters large, round bursa copulatrix at proximal end. Distal end of vaginal duct widens into bulbous vagina, which has longitudinal folds. From bursa copulatrix, separate oviduct connects to large, round receptaculum seminis. Bursa copulatrix approximately two times as large as receptaculum seminis. Short uterine duct from receptaculum seminis to female gland mass. Central nervous system with fused cerebral and pleural ganglia (Fig. 2 B). Eyes sessile on cerebral ganglia. Two equal sized pedal ganglia behind and slightly below cerebropleural complex, joined by short commissure. Three prominent nerves leading from pedal ganglia and four nerves including the rhinophoral nerve, originate from cerebropleural ganglia. Two buccal ganglia positioned ventral to esophagus.Published as part of Fahey, Shireen J., 2004, A new species of Trapania (Nudibranchia: Goniodorididae) from Western Australia with comparisons to other IndoWest Pacific Trapania, pp. 1-12 in Zootaxa 514 on pages 2-6, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15736

No full textPredicting streptococcal pharyngitis in adults in primary care: a systematic review of the diagnostic accuracy of symptoms and signs and validation of the Centor score
No full textBackground: Stratifying patients with a sore throat into the probability of having an underlying bacterial or viral cause may be helpful in targeting antibiotic treatment. We sought to assess the diagnostic accuracy of signs and symptoms and validate a clinical prediction rule (CPR), the Centor score, for predicting group A ?-haemolytic streptococcal (GABHS) pharyngitis in adults (> 14 years of age) presenting with sore throat symptoms. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed up to July 2010. Studies that assessed the diagnostic accuracy of signs and symptoms and/or validated the Centor score were included. For the analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of signs and symptoms and the Centor score, studies were combined using a bivariate random effects model, while for the calibration analysis of the Centor score, a random effects model was used. Results: A total of 21 studies incorporating 4,839 patients were included in the meta-analysis on diagnostic accuracy of signs and symptoms. The results were heterogeneous and suggest that individual signs and symptoms generate only small shifts in post-test probability (range positive likelihood ratio (+LR) 1.45-2.33, -LR 0.54-0.72). As a decision rule for considering antibiotic prescribing (score ? 3), the Centor score has reasonable specificity (0.82, 95% CI 0.72 to 0.88) and a post-test probability of 12% to 40% based on a prior prevalence of 5% to 20%. Pooled calibration shows no significant difference between the numbers of patients predicted and observed to have GABHS pharyngitis across strata of Centor score (0-1 risk ratio (RR) 0.72, 95% CI 0.49 to 1.06; 2-3 RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.73 to 1.17; 4 RR 1.14, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.37). Conclusions: Individual signs and symptoms are not powerful enough to discriminate GABHS pharyngitis from other types of sore throat. The Centor score is a well calibrated CPR for estimating the probability of GABHS pharyngitis. The Centor score can enhance appropriate prescribing of antibiotics, but should be used with caution in low prevalence settings of GABHS pharyngitis such as primary care
