Introduction
-
The AMR package is a peer-reviewed, free and open-source R package with zero dependencies to simplify the analysis and prediction of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and to work with microbial and antimicrobial data and properties, by using evidence-based methods. Our aim is to provide a standard for clean and reproducible AMR data analysis, that can therefore empower epidemiological analyses to continuously enable surveillance and treatment evaluation in any setting. Many different researchers from around the globe are continually helping us to make this a successful and durable project!

The AMR package is a peer-reviewed, free and open-source R package with zero dependencies to simplify the analysis and prediction of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and to work with microbial and antimicrobial data and properties, by using evidence-based methods. Our aim is to provide a standard for clean and reproducible AMR data analysis, that can therefore empower epidemiological analyses to continuously enable surveillance and treatment evaluation in any setting. We are a team of many different researchers from around the globe to make this a successful and durable project!
After installing this package, R knows ~79,000 distinct microbial species (updated June 2024) and all ~620 antimicrobial and antiviral drugs by name and code (including ATC, EARS-Net, ASIARS-Net, PubChem, LOINC and SNOMED CT), and knows all about valid SIR and MIC values. The integral clinical breakpoint guidelines from CLSI and EUCAST are included, even with epidemiological cut-off (ECOFF) values. It supports and can read any data format, including WHONET data. This package works on Windows, macOS and Linux with all versions of R since R-3.0 (April 2013). It was designed to work in any setting, including those with very limited resources. It was created for both routine data analysis and academic research at the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the University of Groningen, in collaboration with non-profit organisations Certe Medical Diagnostics and Advice Foundation and University Medical Center Groningen.
(this beta version will eventually become v3.0. We’re happy to reach a new major milestone soon, which will be all about the new One Health support! Install this beta using the instructions here.)

A New Milestone: AMR v3.0 with One Health Support (= Human + Veterinary + Environmental)
This package now supports not only tools for AMR data analysis in clinical settings, but also for veterinary and environmental microbiology. This was made possible through a collaboration with the University of Prince Edward Island’s Atlantic Veterinary College, Canada. To celebrate this great improvement of the package, we also updated the package logo to reflect this change.

Breaking

Breaking
Dataset antibiotics has been renamed to antimicrobials as the data set contains more than just antibiotics. Using antibiotics will still work, but now returns a warning.
Removed all functions and references that used the deprecated rsi class, which were all replaced with their sir equivalents over two years ago.
Function as.sir() now has extensive support for veterinary breakpoints from CLSI. Use breakpoint_type = "animal" and set the host argument to a variable that contains animal species names.

Updated clinical breakpoints

EUCAST 2024 and CLSI 2024 are now supported, by adding all of their over 4,000 new clinical breakpoints to the clinical_breakpoints data set for usage in as.sir(). EUCAST 2024 is now the new default guideline for all MIC and disk diffusion interpretations.

Breakpoint of 2024 and 2025 of both CLSI and EUCAST are now supported, by adding all of their over 10,000 new clinical breakpoints to the clinical_breakpoints data set for usage in as.sir(). EUCAST 2025 is now the new default guideline for all MIC and disk diffusion interpretations.
Added all Expected Resistant Phenotypes from EUCAST (v1.2). The default rules for eucast_rules() are now: c("breakpoints", "expected_phenotypes").
Updated the intrinsic_resistant data set, which is now based on EUCAST Expected Resistant Phenotypes v1.2
as.sir() now brings additional factor levels: “NI” for non-interpretable and “SDD” for susceptible dose-dependent. Currently, the clinical_breakpoints data set contains 24 breakpoints that can return the value “SDD” instead of “I”.

SIR interpretation
It is now possible to use column names for arguments guideline, ab, mo, and uti: as.sir(..., ab = "column1", mo = "column2", uti = "column3"). This greatly improves the flexibility for users.
Users can now set their own criteria (using regular expressions) as to what should be considered S, I, R, SDD, and NI.

Added agents used for screening, with an ID all ending with -S: benzylpenicillin screening test (PEN-S), beta-lactamase screening test (BLA-S), cefotaxime screening test (CTX-S), clindamycin inducible screening test (CLI-S), nalidixic acid screening test (NAL-S), norfloxacin screening test (NOR-S), oxacillin screening test (OXA-S), pefloxacin screening test (PEF-S), and tetracycline screening test (TCY-S). The ID of cefoxitin screening was renamed from FOX1 to FOX-S, while the old code remains to work.
