Mashup Score: 65Global antibiotic consumption and usage in humans, 2000–18: a spatial modelling study - 3 year(s) ago
To our knowledge, this is the first study that incorporates antibiotic usage and consumption data and uses geostatistical modelling techniques to estimate antibiotic consumption for 204 countries from 2000 to 2018. Our analysis identifies both high rates of antibiotic consumption and a lack of access to antibiotics, providing a benchmark for future interventions.
