What's the difference between anomalism and anomaly?
Anomalism
Definition:
(n.) An anomaly; a deviation from rule.
Example Sentences:

(8) The finding that glucokinase is inactivated by alloxan and protected by glucose with discrimination of its anomers similar to inhibition of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by alloxan supports this hypothesis and appears to explain the mechanism for inhibition of hexose-stimulated insulin secretion by this agent and the unique role of glucose and mannose as protecting agents.
(9) Anomic aphasics produced the fewest phonemic errors and the most multiword circumlocutions; this pattern suggests minimal word-production difficulty in anomic aphasia relative to the other aphasia syndromes.

(14) In the expanded states the alpha anomers are slightly less tightly packed than the beta anomers, as is indicated by the somewhat higher areas per molecule of the expanded states and the lower transition temperatures.
(15) Isolated rat islets were incubated in media containing either the alpha or beta anomer of D-[1-3H]glucose for 5 min at 37 degrees.
(16) This study compared the facilitative values of six types of cue for eliciting picture naming responses from Brocas, Wernickes, and anomic aphasics.
(17) The equilibrium compositions of 1 and 2 (furanose anomers and acyclic keto forms) in 2H2O were determined from 13C-n.m.r.
(18) (1) Two sets of proton signals were observed, corresponding to the alpha and beta anomers of these disaccharides, except those containing N-sulfated GlcN (2-deoxy-2-amino-D-glucose), in which only one set of signals appeared, corresponding to the alpha anomer.
(19) The effects on insulin secretion of alpha and beta anomers of D-glucose were studied in the in vitro perfused rat pancreas.
(20) Agrammatic Broca's and fluent (Wernicke's and anomic) aphasics were asked to name objects depicted in outline drawings as a means of testing their ability to identify and to name objects at the basic (e.g., "chair") and subordinate (e.g., "beach chair") levels.
Anomaly
Definition:
(n.) Deviation from the common rule; an irregularity; anything anomalous.
(n.) The angular distance of a planet from its perihelion, as seen from the sun. This is the true anomaly. The eccentric anomaly is a corresponding angle at the center of the elliptic orbit of the planet. The mean anomaly is what the anomaly would be if the planet's angular motion were uniform.
(n.) The angle measuring apparent irregularities in the motion of a planet.
(n.) Any deviation from the essential characteristics of a specific type.
Example Sentences:
(1) In addition to the aqueduct other associated inner ear anomalies have been identified in 60% of this population including: enlarged vestibule (14); enlarged vestibule and lateral semicircular canal (7); enlarged vestibule and hypoplastic cochlea (4); and hypoplastic cochlea (4).
(2) Sixteen patients (27%) manifested anomalies of the urinary tract: 12 had markedly altered kidneys, 8 of which were unilateral and ipsilateral to the diaphragmatic defect.
(3) Gardner proposed that anomalies at the exit of the fourth ventricle produce a communicating syringomyelia.
(4) The family history and associated anomalies were recorded and particular attention was paid to temperature gradients and neurocirculatory deficits with respect to band location.
(5) It facilitated the acquisition of quantitative velocity information with standard Doppler ultrasound techniques by identifying areas of high velocity or turbulent flow and was invaluable in the assessment of anomalous pulmonary venous drainage occurring either as an isolated anomaly or in conjunction with complex intracardiac lesions.
(6) Aplasia of the trachea associated with multiple congenital anomalies is described in a stillborn male foetus with single umbilical artery.
(7) The anomaly may represent a hitherto overlooked but easily obtainable diagnostic marker.
(8) Though the problems associated with Robin sequence may be numerous, especially if the primary cause of the sequence is a multiple anomaly syndrome, the most acute problems in affected newborns is upper airway obstruction.
(9) Bidrin treatment of quail embryos results in axial anomalies as well as malformations of the beak and the limbs.
(10) Three mouse models of male-limited, hybrid-type sterility are available: the sterility controlled by the T-t genetic complex, the hybrid sterility system including the Hst-1 gene, and the sterility of carriers of various chromosomal anomalies.
(11) The differentiation of congenital anomaly from fracture can be difficult.
(12) Orbital hypertelorism, strictly defined as an increase in bony interorbital distance, is not itself an isolated syndrome, but is instead an anomaly that may occur as either part of a syndrome or malformation sequence.

(14) Anatomical data of the postmortem examination and histologic anomalies of the aorta confirm the diagnosis.
(15) There is evidence to indicate that these losses are due to congenital ossicular anomalies, eustachian tube dysfunction from craniofacial malformation, and cochlear involvement that is greatest for high frequencies.
