Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to global public health, affecting human and animal agriculture, food safety, the environment. The control of AMR often challenging, particularly when data are scanty or siloed in individual sectors. To develop evidence-based policies for AMR, an electronic information system that integrates from various sectors, One Health approach, critical.

Abstract Gastrointestinal carriage of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, especially carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), presents a critical public health threat globally. However, in many resource-constrained countries, epidemiological data on CPE is limited. Here, we assessed gastrointestinal and associated factors among inpatient outpatient children (≤ 5 years). This hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted at Thika Level Hospital Kenya from February to June 2023. In...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global public health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, which experience the highest burden of AMR. Critical to combatting AMR ensuring there are effective, accessible diagnostic networks place diagnose, monitor prevent AMR, but many countries lack such networks. Consequently, substantial need for approaches that can inform design efficient laboratory sample referral systems lower-resource countries. Diagnostic network...
