Influence of Poor Ventilation and Door Operation on the Spread of Infectious Respiratory Particles and Infection Risk in a Hospital Ward

open access: yesJAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 9, Issue 1, January–December 2026.
ABSTRACT As COVID‐19 spread worldwide, numerous outbreaks occurred in wards. This study, in addition to investigating the indoor air environment and ventilation characteristics of a ward that had experienced multiple outbreaks, quantitatively evaluated how ventilation characteristics and door operation affect infection risk.

A Critical Evaluation of Nano‐ and Microplastics: Sources, Health Risks, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Microplastics (1 μm–5 mm) and nanoplastics (< 1 μm) have become ubiquitous contaminants across air, water, and soil systems, with growing evidence of their presence in human tissues including blood, lungs, and even the placenta. While microplastics have been extensively studied, nanoplastics remain poorly understood because of their minute size and ...
