Balancing Building Water Conservation and Microbial Water Quality

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Flow restrictors are widely used to improve water efficiency by limiting flow rates in faucets and showerheads. While these devices contribute to significant reductions in water consumption and associated energy costs, they may also pose unintended risks to microbial water quality. In healthcare and other high‐risk settings, reduced flow rates

Microbial Etiology and Antimicrobial Resistance in Pneumonia Among Hospitalized Patients in Kazakhstan: A Systematic Review and Single‐Arm Meta‐Analysis of Prevalence Data

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition of the lower respiratory tract, commonly caused by infection and associated with substantial morbidity and healthcare utilization. The burden of pneumonia on healthcare is exacerbated by limited data on pathogenic causes and associated antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Here, we conducted

A large‐scale single‐cell transcriptomic atlas indicates the immune panorama of influenza A infection

iMeta, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2026.
The study presents a large‐scale single‐cell transcriptomic atlas profiling over 612,010 peripheral immune cells from 97 individuals to decode the heterogeneity of influenza infection. These findings indicate a fundamental immune dichotomy determining clinical trajectories: a protective, monocyte‐centric antiviral state in mild disease versus a ...

From Lake Victoria to the Tap: Antibiotic Resistance and Pathogenic Contamination of Kisumu City Water Supply and Wastewater Network

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 547-559, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Waterborne diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose mounting public health threats across sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions dependent on untreated or poorly treated surface waters. This study applied shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise microbial communities, virulence factors and antibiotic ...

Discovery of a Dual‐Target DNAzyme for Clostridioides difficile and Listeria monocytogenes Diagnostics

ChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 3, March 2026.
A newly discovered fluorogenic DNAzyme, RFD‐CD3, enables rapid and sensitive detection of Clostridioides difficile and—unexpectedly—Listeria monocytogenes, making it the first dual‐responsive DNAzyme for two unrelated bacterial pathogens. Its strong catalytic efficiency, pH‐tolerant activity, and modular trans‐acting design position it as a promising ...
