TL;DR
This chapter focuses on bacterial antimicrobial resistance, addressing key concepts, major challenges, and emerging technologies within a One Health framework, and framing AMR as a shared ecological and societal responsibility.
Fighting AMR requires more than the development of new drugs alone; it requires a comprehensive approach based on global collaboration, effective regulatory and oversight mechanisms, and strengthened data sharing across institutions.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most urgent global health threats and is increasingly recognized as a One Health challenge driven by interactions among human, animal, and environmental reservoirs. Central to the emergence and dissemination of AMR across these interfaces are mobile genetic elements (MGEs),...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a critical global health challenge, threatening the effectiveness of antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, and antiparasitic drugs. Although clinical misuse of antibiotics in humans and animals has traditionally been highlighted as the primary driver of resistance, environmenta...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a critical global health concern that transcends human, animal, and environmental boundaries. The extensive and often indiscriminate use of antibiotics for disease control and growth promotion has accelerated the evolution and spread of resistant pathogens within the aquacu...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global health threat, worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. Antibiotic overuse, disruptions to stewardship, and health-system weaknesses likely contributed to conditions that favored the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance, particularly in low- and middle-income co...
