Diltiazem N‐oxide, a novel ischaemia‐activated prodrug, prevents ischaemia‐induced ventricular fibrillation without off‐target adverse effects

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ventricular fibrillation (VF) in coronary heart disease accounts for up to 70% of sudden cardiac death. We examined whether diltiazem N‐oxide (DNO) has ischaemia‐selective antiarrhythmic activity. Experimental Approach Randomised and blinded experiments were performed in rat isolated hearts and in anaesthetised rats to ...

Long-term and comparative impacts of combined sewers and municipal effluents to freshwater mussels

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2020
Excess rainfall events could lead to overflows and combined sewer overflows, which could threaten local mussel populations. This study sought to compare the long- term effects of combined sewer overflows and treated municipal effluents in caged Elliptio ...

Predictive heuristic control: Inferring risks from heterogeneous nowcast accuracy

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2023
Urban Drainage Systems can cause ecological and public health issues by releasing untreated contaminated water into the environment. Real-time control (RTC), augmented with rainfall nowcast, can effectively reduce these pollution loads.

The effect of combined sewer overflows on the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes and bacteria in the James River [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat to human health. Clinical situations are the main focus for antibiotic resistance research, but understanding the spread of resistance in the environment is also vital.

The Challenges of Domestic Wastewater/Sewage Systems for Māori Communities

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
The development of domestic wastewater systems in contemporary Aotearoa New Zealand has presented a significant challenge for Māori communities. While those communities have supported attempts to address the pollution of land and waterways through modern treatment methods, the solution has included continuing discharges of sometimes untreated and often

Ecological impacts of combined sewer overflows on receiving waters

open access: yesDiscover Water
Receiving water quality is increasingly recognized as a significant environmental issue due to rapid urbanization and climate change. The quality of water in urban streams is notably affected by discharges from waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) and ...

Exploring the performances of a new integrated approach of grey, green and blue infrastructures for combined sewer overflows remediation in high-density urban areas

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering, 2018
Most sewage collection systems designed between 19th and early to mid-20th century use single-pipe systems that collect both sewage and urban runoff from streets, roofs and other impervious surfaces.

Assessing the Impact of Wastewater Flow Rates on SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA Detection: Insights for Environmental Surveillance and Policymaking

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
We meta‐analyzed 10 studies to assess whether influent flow rate affects SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA detection in wastewater treatment plants serving ≤60,000 inhabitants. The pooled odds ratio (2.08; 95% CI: 0.994–37; p = 0.053) showed no significant association between flow rate and detection probability.

Impact of short duration intense rainfall events on sanitary sewer network performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Short duration intense rainfall causes an increase in rainfall derived infiltration and inflow (RDII) into aging sewer networks, which leads to Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs).
