Antimicrobial resistance - World Health Organization (WHO)
Nov 21, 2023 · Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites change over time and no longer respond to medicines making infections harder to treat and increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.
WHO updates list of drug-resistant bacteria most threatening to …
May 17, 2024 · AMR occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites no longer respond to medicines, making people sicker and increasing the risk of disease spread, illness and deaths. AMR is driven in large part by the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials.
Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance 1990–2021: a ...
Sep 16, 2024 · We estimated all-age and age-specific deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) attributable to and associated with bacterial AMR for 22 pathogens, 84 pathogen–drug combinations, and 11 infectious syndromes in 204 countries and territories from 1990 to 2021.

CDC's 2019 AR Threats Report includes national estimates for 18 antimicrobial-resistant germs. The U.S. lost progress combating AR in 2020 due, in large part, to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) experts from Canada, the European Union (EU), Norway, the United King...
Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System …
GLASS-AMR provides a standardized approach to the collection, analysis and sharing of national AMR data in samples collected routinely for clinical purposes for a set of pathogens that cause common bacterial infections in human.
National Database of Antibiotic Resistant Organisms (NDARO)
Welcome to the NCBI National Database of Antibiotic Resistant Organisms (NDARO), a collaborative, cross-agency, centralized hub for researchers to access AMR data to facilitate real-time surveillance of pathogenic organisms.
Antimicrobial resistance: Impacts, challenges, and future prospects
Apr 1, 2024 · AMR affects both humans and animals, with resistant pathogens posing challenges in treating infections. Various mechanisms, such as enzymatic modification and biofilm formation, enable microbes to withstand the effects of antibiotics.
Antimicrobial resistance: a concise update - The Lancet Microbe
Sep 18, 2024 · Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly bacterial AMR, has become a crucial global health threat, jeopardising the efficacy of treatment and prevention of infections.
AMR explained - Microbiology Society
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is when microbes (including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites) evolve so that they are no longer affected by the medicines that have been developed to target them.
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) - PMC
AMR occurs when viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites do not respond to antimicrobial treatments in humans and animals, thus allowing the survival of the microorganism within the host.
