\item{only_all_tested}{(for combination therapies, i.e. using more than one variable for \code{...}): a \link{logical} to indicate that isolates must be tested for all antimicrobials, see section \emph{Combination Therapy} below.

\item{guideline}{Either \code{"EUCAST"} (default) or \code{"CLSI"}. With EUCAST, the 'I' category will be considered as susceptible (see \href{https://www.eucast.org/bacteria/clinical-breakpoints-and-interpretation/definition-of-s-i-and-r/}{EUCAST website}), but with with CLSI, it will be considered resistant. Therefore:
\itemize{
\item EUCAST: \code{\link[=count_susceptible]{count_susceptible()}} \eqn{= N_{S} + N_{I}}, \code{\link[=count_resistant]{count_resistant()}} \eqn{= N_{R}}

You can also use e.g. \code{\link[=count_R]{count_R()}} or \code{\link[=count_S]{count_S()}} instead, to be explicit.}
\item{data}{A \link{data.frame} containing columns with class \code{\link{sir}} (see \code{\link[=as.sir]{as.sir()}}).}
\item{translate_ab}{A column name of the \link{antimicrobials} data set to translate the antibiotic abbreviations to, using \code{\link[=ab_property]{ab_property()}}.}
\item{language}{Language of the returned text - the default is the current system language (see \code{\link[=get_AMR_locale]{get_AMR_locale()}}) and can also be set with the package option \code{\link[=AMR-options]{AMR_locale}}. Use \code{language = NULL} or \code{language = ""} to prevent translation.}
\item{combine_SI}{A \link{logical} to indicate whether all values of S, SDD, and I must be merged into one, so the output only consists of S+SDD+I vs. R (susceptible vs. resistant) - the default is \code{TRUE}.}

\description{
These functions can be used to count resistant/susceptible microbial isolates. All functions support quasiquotation with pipes, can be used in \code{summarise()} from the \code{dplyr} package and also support grouped variables, see \emph{Examples}.
\code{\link[=count_resistant]{count_resistant()}} should be used to count resistant isolates, \code{\link[=count_susceptible]{count_susceptible()}} should be used to count susceptible isolates.
}
\details{
These functions are meant to count isolates. Use the \code{\link[=resistance]{resistance()}}/\code{\link[=susceptibility]{susceptibility()}} functions to calculate microbial resistance/susceptibility.
The function \code{\link[=n_sir]{n_sir()}} is an alias of \code{\link[=count_all]{count_all()}}. They can be used to count all available isolates, i.e. where the input antimicrobial has an available result (S, I or R). For multiple antimicrobials, these are isolates with a result for any of the antimicrobials, or with \code{only_all_tested = TRUE}, for all of the antimicrobials (see \emph{Combination Therapy} below). Their use is equal to \code{dplyr}'s \code{n_distinct()}. For one antimicrobial, their function is equal to \code{count_susceptible(...) + count_resistant(...)}.
The function \code{\link[=count_df]{count_df()}} takes any variable from \code{data} that has an \code{\link{sir}} class (created with \code{\link[=as.sir]{as.sir()}}) and counts the number of S's, I's and R's. It also supports grouped variables. The function \code{\link[=sir_df]{sir_df()}} works exactly like \code{\link[=count_df]{count_df()}}, but adds the percentage of S, I and R.

\section{Interpretation of SIR}{
In 2019, the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) has decided to change the definitions of susceptibility testing categories S, I, and R (\url{https://www.eucast.org/bacteria/clinical-breakpoints-and-interpretation/definition-of-s-i-and-r/}).
This AMR package follows insight; use \code{\link[=susceptibility]{susceptibility()}} (equal to \code{\link[=proportion_SI]{proportion_SI()}}) to determine antimicrobial susceptibility and \code{\link[=count_susceptible]{count_susceptible()}} (equal to \code{\link[=count_SI]{count_SI()}}) to count susceptible isolates.
}
\section{Combination Therapy}{
Results are ordered from susceptible to resistant: S (and WT), SDD, I, R (and NWT, NS). With \code{method = "most_susceptible"} (in \code{\link[=sir_combine]{sir_combine()}}), the most susceptible result of the antimicrobials is returned, and with \code{method = "most_resistant"}, the most resistant result. The value \code{"NI"} (non-interpretable) is considered a missing result.
A missing result can only be ignored if it cannot change the conclusion: a susceptible result for \code{"most_susceptible"}, and a non-susceptible result for \code{"most_resistant"}. Under EUCAST, the 'I' category is considered susceptible (\emph{susceptible, increased exposure}), and under CLSI, it is not. With \code{only_all_tested = TRUE}, any missing result leads to \code{NA}.
This is an example for two antimicrobials, Drug A and Drug B, under EUCAST (the order of the antimicrobials does not matter):
\if{html}{\out{<div class="sourceCode">}}\preformatted{-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Result of method = Result of method =
"most_susceptible" "most_resistant"
----------------------- -----------------------------
only_all_tested = only_all_tested =
Drug A Drug B FALSE TRUE FALSE TRUE
-------- -------- --------- --------- ----------- -------------
S S S S S S
S I S S I I
S R S S R R
I R I I R R
R R R R R R
S <NA> S <NA> <NA> <NA>
I <NA> I <NA> <NA> <NA>
R <NA> <NA> <NA> R <NA>
<NA> <NA> <NA> <NA> <NA> <NA>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
}\if{html}{\out{</div>}}
Under CLSI, the combination of I with a missing result is \verb{<NA>} for \code{"most_susceptible"} and I for \code{"most_resistant"}.
The \code{\link[=count]{count_*()}} and \code{\link[=proportion]{proportion_*()}} functions apply these rules when more than one variable is used. With \code{only_all_tested = FALSE} (default), the functions for susceptibility, such as \code{\link[=susceptibility]{susceptibility()}} and \code{\link[=count_susceptible]{count_susceptible()}}, count an isolate as susceptible if any of the antimicrobials is susceptible (\code{"most_susceptible"}), and the functions for resistance, such as \code{\link[=resistance]{resistance()}} and \code{\link[=count_resistant]{count_resistant()}}, count an isolate as resistant if any of the antimicrobials is resistant (\code{"most_resistant"}). An isolate is considered tested if it has such a result, or if it was tested for all antimicrobials. Therefore, for combinations with \code{only_all_tested = FALSE}:
\if{html}{\out{<div class="sourceCode">}}\preformatted{ count_S() + count_I() + count_R() >= count_all()
proportion_S() + proportion_I() + proportion_R() >= 1
}\if{html}{\out{</div>}}
With \code{only_all_tested = TRUE}, all these functions count the result of the combination therapy (\code{"most_susceptible"}) of isolates tested for all antimicrobials, so that:
\if{html}{\out{<div class="sourceCode">}}\preformatted{ count_S() + count_I() + count_R() = count_all()
proportion_S() + proportion_I() + proportion_R() = 1
}\if{html}{\out{</div>}}
In \code{\link[=antibiogram]{antibiogram()}} and \code{\link[=wisca]{wisca()}}, the result of the combination therapy (\code{"most_susceptible"}) is used, the 'I' and 'SDD' categories are considered susceptible if \code{combine_SI = TRUE} (default), and the result is then reduced to S or R.
