Aberration

Aberration is described as departures from a usual distribution (Stroup 1994). It should be differentiated from an outbreak because it denotes changes in the occurrence of health events that are statistically significant compared with usual history, however, an outbreak or epidemic may be present in the absence of a statistical increase. Aberration (Latin, aberratio; English, tion = result of an action) is any body, form (shape) or structure that deviates from the normal or typical condition. The term is often applied subjectively in a negative context. Source: A Dictionary of Public Health 3rd Edition 2013. http://www.centurypublications.co.in/

Although it is deviation or departure from the normal or usual and appeared to be abnormal but this is definitely important for innovation, understanding of variation, diversity, and uniqueness. Aberration is commonly applied in genomics but such aberration produce new characteristics and new being. 

ABC analysis

ABC analysis is a technique of inventory control in which the basic criteria is cost of the items. It is stated that a small number of items consume a big chunk of resources and vice versa. Around 10% of the drugs/store materials would cost 70% of the resources (called Group A), 20% of the drugs/store materials generally consume 20% of the resources (called Group B) and remaining 70% of the drugs/store material/items would consume just 10% of the resources (called Group C). It should be differentiated with VED analysis. Source: A Dictionary of Public Health 2013 3rd Edition.
