<p>Note: to keep the package size as small as possible, we only include
this vignette on CRAN. You can read more vignettes on our website about
how to conduct AMR data analysis, determine MDROs, find explanation of
EUCAST and CLSI breakpoints, and much more: <a href="https://amr-for-r.org" class="uri">https://amr-for-r.org</a>.</p>
<hr>
<p>The <code>AMR</code> package is a peer-reviewed, <a href="https://amr-for-r.org/#copyright">free and open-source</a> R
package with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_hell" class="external-link">zero
dependencies</a> 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.
<strong>Our aim is to provide a standard</strong> 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 <a href="https://amr-for-r.org/authors.html">many different researchers</a>
from around the globe to make this a successful and durable project!</p>
<p>This work was published in the Journal of Statistical Software
(Volume 104(3); ) and formed the basis of two PhD theses ( and ).</p>
<p>After installing this package, R knows <a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/microorganisms.html"><strong>~79
000 distinct microbial species</strong></a> (updated June 2024) and all
<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/antimicrobials.html"><strong>~620
antimicrobial and antiviral drugs</strong></a> 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 2011-2025 and EUCAST 2011-2025 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). <strong>It was designed to work in any setting, including those
with very limited resources</strong>. It was created for both routine
data analysis and academic research at the Faculty of Medical Sciences
of the <a href="https://www.rug.nl" class="external-link">University of Groningen</a> and the
<a href="https://www.umcg.nl" class="external-link">University Medical Center
Groningen</a>.</p>
<p>The <code>AMR</code> package is available in English, Chinese, Czech,
Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese,
Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish,
Turkish, and Ukrainian. Antimicrobial drug (group) names and colloquial
microorganism names are provided in these languages.</p>
<p>This package was intended as a comprehensive toolbox for integrated
AMR data analysis. This package can be used for:</p>
<ul>
<li>Reference for the taxonomy of microorganisms, since the package
contains all microbial (sub)species from the List of Prokaryotic names
with Standing in Nomenclature (<a href="(https://lpsn.dsmz.de)" class="external-link">LPSN</a>) and the Global Biodiversity
Information Facility (<a href="https://www.gbif.org" class="external-link">GBIF</a>) (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/mo_property.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Interpreting raw MIC and disk diffusion values, based on any CLSI or
EUCAST guideline (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/as.sir.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Retrieving antimicrobial drug names, doses and forms of
administration from clinical health care records (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/ab_from_text.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Determining first isolates to be used for AMR data analysis (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/first_isolate.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Calculating antimicrobial resistance (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/AMR.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
<li>Determining multi-drug resistance (MDR) / multi-drug resistant
organisms (MDRO) (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/MDR.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
<li>Calculating (empirical) susceptibility of both mono therapy and
combination therapies (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/AMR.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
<li>Apply AMR function in predictive modelling (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/AMR_with_tidymodels.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
<li>Getting properties for any microorganism (like Gram stain, species,
genus or family) (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/mo_property.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Getting properties for any antimicrobial (like name, code of
EARS-Net/ATC/LOINC/PubChem, defined daily dose or trade name) (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/ab_property.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Plotting antimicrobial resistance (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/AMR.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
<li>Applying EUCAST expert rules (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/eucast_rules.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Getting SNOMED codes of a microorganism, or getting properties of a
microorganism based on a SNOMED code (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/mo_property.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Getting LOINC codes of an antibiotic, or getting properties of an
antibiotic based on a LOINC code (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/reference/ab_property.html">manual</a>)</li>
<li>Machine reading the EUCAST and CLSI guidelines from 2011-2021 to
translate MIC values and disk diffusion diameters to SIR (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/datasets.html">link</a>)</li>
<li>Principal component analysis for AMR (<a href="https://amr-for-r.org/articles/PCA.html">tutorial</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>All reference data sets in the AMR package - including information on
microorganisms, antimicrobials, and clinical breakpoints - are freely
available for download in multiple formats: R, MS Excel, Apache Feather,
Apache Parquet, SPSS, and Stata.</p>
<p>For maximum compatibility, we also provide machine-readable,
tab-separated plain text files suitable for use in any software,
including laboratory information systems.</p>
