HACCP-Based Programs for Preventing Disease and Injury from Premise Plumbing: A Building Consensus
Thousands of preventable injuries and deaths are annually caused by microbial, chemical and physical hazards from building water systems. Water is processed in buildings before use; this can degrade the quality of the water.

Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic and systemic autoimmune disease. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been documented to play important roles in the pathogenesis of RA. This study is aimed to investigate the differentially expressed lncRNAs in RA and explore the underlying roles and mechanisms of RA‐specific lncRNAs.

Whole genome sequence analysis reveals the broad distribution of the RtxA type 1 secretion system and four novel putative type 1 secretion systems throughout the Legionella genus. [PDF]
Type 1 secretion systems (T1SSs) are broadly distributed among bacteria and translocate effectors with diverse function across the bacterial cell membrane. Legionella pneumophila, the species most commonly associated with Legionellosis, encodes a T1SS at
