- taxonomy build: released taxa (since v2.0.0) that are missing are restored from their last release with their old code and last known status, and are exempt from later removals (decision by Matthijs S. Berends) - exceptions are retired on purpose in data-raw/microorganisms_files/mo_code_retirements.csv with a reason: other organisms with the same genus name (e.g. the Graphium butterflies, wrongly in the Fungi until v3.0.1) and taxa whose genus is now only known in another domain; as.mo() translates these codes to NA with that reason - synonyms without a current name are linked to an accepted name in the same genus that only differs by a Latin gender ending (e.g. Candida glabratus -> Nakaseomyces glabratus) - placeholders such as "(unknown class)" never become records; codes of manually added records are matched by domain and name - integrity rule released_taxon_missing; known defects of the data on main updated Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The AMR Package for R
Please visit our comprehensive package website https://amr-for-r.org to read more about this package, including many examples and tutorials.
Overview:
- Provides an all-in-one solution for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data analysis in a One Health approach
- Peer-reviewed, used in over 175 countries, cited over 100 times, available in 28 languages
- Generates antibiograms - WISCA for empiric coverage estimates, or traditional/syndromic for AMR surveillance
- Provides the full microbiological taxonomy of ~97 000 distinct species and extensive info of ~620 antimicrobial drugs
- Applies CLSI 2011-2026 and EUCAST 2011-2026 clinical and veterinary breakpoints, and ECOFFs, for MIC and disk zone interpretation
- Corrects for duplicate isolates, calculates and predicts AMR per antimicrobial class
- Integrates with WHONET, ATC, EARS-Net, PubChem, LOINC, SNOMED CT, and NCBI
- 100% free of costs and dependencies, highly suitable for places with limited resources
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 has always been 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.
The AMR package 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
and the University Medical Center Groningen.
