<p>We’ve got a new website: <ahref="https://msberends.gitlab.io/AMR/">https://msberends.gitlab.io/AMR</a> (built with the great <ahref="https://pkgdown.r-lib.org/"><code>pkgdown</code></a>)</p>
<ul>
<li>Contains the complete manual of this package and all of its functions with an explanation of their parameters</li>
<li>Contains a comprehensive tutorial about how to conduct antimicrobial resistance analysis, import data from WHONET or SPSS and many more.</li>
<strong>BREAKING</strong>: removed deprecated functions, parameters and references to ‘bactid’. Use <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> to identify an MO code.</li>
<li>Catalogue of Life (CoL) inclusion for data about microorganisms, which also contains all ITIS data we used previously. The <code>microorganisms</code> data set now contains:
<ul>
<li>Almost 60,000 species from six different kingdoms</li>
<li>Almost 15,000 previously accepted names which are now taxonomic ‘synonyms’</li>
<li>All (sub)species from the kingdoms Archaea, Bacteria, Chromista, Protozoa and Viruses</li>
<li>All (sub)species from the orders Eurotiales, Saccharomycetales and Onygenales of the kingdom Fungi. The complete taxonomy of this kingdom has more than 130,000 species. The orders we included contains at least all memebers of the families <em>Candida</em>, <em>Aspergillus</em> and <em>Trichophyton</em>.</li>
<li>Due to this change, the ID of <em>Streptococcus</em> was changed from <code>B_STRPTC</code> to <code>B_STRPT</code>.</li>
<li>Support for data from <ahref="https://whonet.org/">WHONET</a> and <ahref="https://ecdc.europa.eu/en/about-us/partnerships-and-networks/disease-and-laboratory-networks/ears-net">EARS-Net</a> (European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network):
<li>Exported files from WHONET can be read and used in this package. For functions like <code><ahref="../reference/first_isolate.html">first_isolate()</a></code> and <code><ahref="../reference/eucast_rules.html">eucast_rules()</a></code>, all parameters will be filled in automatically.</li>
<li>This package now knows all antibiotic abbrevations by EARS-Net (which are also being used by WHONET) - the <code>antibiotics</code> data set now contains a column <code>ears_net</code>.</li>
<li>The function <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> now knows all WHONET species abbreviations too, because more than 1,600 microbial abbreviations were added to the <code>microorganisms.codes</code> data set.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p>All <code>ab_*</code> functions are deprecated and replaced by <code>atc_*</code> functions:</p>
These functions use <code><ahref="../reference/as.atc.html">as.atc()</a></code> internally. The old <code>atc_property</code> has been renamed <code><ahref="../reference/atc_online.html">atc_online_property()</a></code>. This is done for two reasons: firstly, not all ATC codes are of antibiotics (ab) but can also be of antivirals or antifungals. Secondly, the input must have class <code>atc</code> or must be coerable to this class. Properties of these classes should start with the same class name, analogous to <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> and e.g.<code>mo_genus</code>.</li>
<li>New functions <code><ahref="../reference/mo_source.html">set_mo_source()</a></code> and <code><ahref="../reference/mo_source.html">get_mo_source()</a></code> to use your own predefined MO codes as input for <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> and consequently all <code>mo_*</code> functions</li>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">mo_failures()</a></code> to review values that could not be coerced to a valid MO code, using <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code>. This latter function will now only show a maximum of 10 uncoerced values and will refer to <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">mo_failures()</a></code>.</li>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">mo_uncertainties()</a></code> to review values that could be coerced to a valid MO code using <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code>, but with uncertainty.</li>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">mo_renamed()</a></code> to get a list of all returned values from <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> that have had taxonomic renaming</li>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/age.html">age()</a></code> to calculate the (patients) age in years</li>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/age_groups.html">age_groups()</a></code> to split ages into custom or predefined groups (like children or elderly). This allows for easier demographic antimicrobial resistance analysis per age group.</li>
<p>New function <code><ahref="../reference/resistance_predict.html">ggplot_rsi_predict()</a></code> as well as the base R <code><ahref="https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/graphics/topics/plot">plot()</a></code> function can now be used for resistance prediction calculated with <code><ahref="../reference/resistance_predict.html">resistance_predict()</a></code>:</p>
<p>Functions <code><ahref="../reference/first_isolate.html">filter_first_isolate()</a></code> and <code><ahref="../reference/first_isolate.html">filter_first_weighted_isolate()</a></code> to shorten and fasten filtering on data sets with antimicrobial results, e.g.:</p>
<li>New function <code><ahref="../reference/availability.html">availability()</a></code> to check the number of available (non-empty) results in a <code>data.frame</code>
</li>
<li><p>New vignettes about how to conduct AMR analysis, predict antimicrobial resistance, use the <em>G</em>-test and more. These are also available (and even easier readable) on our website: <ahref="https://msberends.gitlab.io/AMR"class="uri">https://msberends.gitlab.io/AMR</a>.</p></li>
<li>Updated EUCAST Clinical breakpoints to <ahref="http://www.eucast.org/clinical_breakpoints/">version 9.0 of 1 January 2019</a>, the data set <code>septic_patients</code> now reflects these changes</li>
<li>Fixed a critical bug where some rules that depend on previous applied rules would not be applied adequately</li>
<li>Emphasised in manual that penicillin is meant as benzylpenicillin (ATC <ahref="https://www.whocc.no/atc_ddd_index/?code=J01CE01">J01CE01</a>)</li>
<li>New info is returned when running this function, stating exactly what has been changed or added. Use <code><ahref="../reference/eucast_rules.html">eucast_rules(..., verbose = TRUE)</a></code> to get a data set with all changed per bug and drug combination.</li>
<li>Removed data sets <code>microorganisms.oldDT</code>, <code>microorganisms.prevDT</code>, <code>microorganisms.unprevDT</code> and <code>microorganismsDT</code> since they were no longer needed and only contained info already available in the <code>microorganisms</code> data set</li>
<li>Added 65 antibiotics to the <code>antibiotics</code> data set, from the <ahref="http://ec.europa.eu/health/documents/community-register/html/atc.htm">Pharmaceuticals Community Register</a> of the European Commission</li>
<li>Removed columns <code>atc_group1_nl</code> and <code>atc_group2_nl</code> from the <code>antibiotics</code> data set</li>
<li>Functions <code><ahref="../reference/AMR-deprecated.html">atc_ddd()</a></code> and <code><ahref="../reference/AMR-deprecated.html">atc_groups()</a></code> have been renamed <code><ahref="../reference/atc_online.html">atc_online_ddd()</a></code> and <code><ahref="../reference/atc_online.html">atc_online_groups()</a></code>. The old functions are deprecated and will be removed in a future version.</li>
<li>Function <code><ahref="../reference/AMR-deprecated.html">guess_mo()</a></code> is now deprecated in favour of <code><ahref="../reference/as.mo.html">as.mo()</a></code> and will be removed in future versions</li>
<li>Function <code><ahref="../reference/AMR-deprecated.html">guess_atc()</a></code> is now deprecated in favour of <code><ahref="../reference/as.atc.html">as.atc()</a></code> and will be removed in future versions</li>
<li>Fixed a bug where distances between dates would not be calculated right - in the <code>septic_patients</code> data set this yielded a difference of 0.15% more isolates</li>
<li>Will now use a column named like “key(…)ab” or “key(…)antibiotics” for the key antibiotics (parameter <code>col_keyantibiotics()</code>), when this parameter was left blank</li>
<li>A note to the manual pages of the <code>portion</code> functions, that low counts can influence the outcome and that the <code>portion</code> functions may camouflage this, since they only return the portion (albeit being dependent on the <code>minimum</code> parameter)</li>
<li>Reduce false positives for <code><ahref="../reference/as.rsi.html">is.rsi.eligible()</a></code> using the new <code>threshold</code> parameter</li>
<li>Summaries of class <code>mo</code> will now return the top 3 and the unique count, e.g.using <code><ahref="https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/base/topics/summary">summary(mo)</a></code>
</li>
<li>Small text updates to summaries of class <code>rsi</code> and <code>mic</code>

<aclass="sourceLine"id="cb5-2"title="2"><spanclass="co"># OLD WAY</span></a>
<li>Added header info for class <code>mo</code> to show unique count of families, genera and species</li>
<li>Now honours the <code>decimal.mark</code> setting, which just like <code>format</code> defaults to <code><ahref="https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/base/topics/options">getOption("OutDec")</a></code>
</li>
<li>The new <code>big.mark</code> parameter will at default be <code>","</code> when <code>decimal.mark = "."</code> and <code>"."</code> otherwise</li>
<li>Fix for header text where all observations are <code>NA</code>
</li>
<li>New parameter <code>droplevels</code> to exclude empty factor levels when input is a factor</li>

</li>
<li>Function <code>count_all</code> to get all available isolates (that like all <code>portion_*</code> and <code>count_*</code> functions also supports <code>summarise</code> and <code>group_by</code>), the old <code>n_rsi</code> is now an alias of <code>count_all</code>
</li>
<li>Function <code>get_locale</code> to determine language for language-dependent output for some <code>mo_*</code> functions. This is now the default value for their <code>language</code> parameter, by which the system language will be used at default.</li>
<li>Data sets <code>microorganismsDT</code>, <code>microorganisms.prevDT</code>, <code>microorganisms.unprevDT</code> and <code>microorganisms.oldDT</code> to improve the speed of <code>as.mo</code>. They are for reference only, since they are primarily for internal use of <code>as.mo</code>.</li>

<li>Tremendous speed improvement for <code>as.mo</code> (and subsequently all <code>mo_*</code> functions), as empty values wil be ignored <em>a priori</em>
</li>
<li>Fewer than 3 characters as input for <code>as.mo</code> will return NA</li>
<li>Added parameter <code>combine_IR</code> (TRUE/FALSE) to functions <code>portion_df</code> and <code>count_df</code>, to indicate that all values of I and R must be merged into one, so the output only consists of S vs.IR (susceptible vs.non-susceptible)</li>

<li>Added parameter <code>also_single_tested</code> for <code>portion_*</code> and <code>count_*</code> functions to also include cases where not all antibiotics were tested but at least one of the tested antibiotics includes the target antimicribial interpretation, see <code><ahref="../reference/portion.html">?portion</a></code>
<li>Using <code>portion_*</code> functions now throws a warning when total available isolate is below parameter <code>minimum</code>
</li>
<li>Functions <code>as.mo</code>, <code>as.rsi</code>, <code>as.mic</code>, <code>as.atc</code> and <code>freq</code> will not set package name as attribute anymore</li>
