Increased Antibiotic Resistance in Respiratory Tract Pathogens: PROTEKT US—An Update
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Three major North American surveillance programs have tracked antimicrobial resistance patterns among isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae and other common respiratory tract pathogens. The Canadian Bacterial Surveillance Network shows the progressive increase in resistance among pneumococcal S. pneumoniae to penicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, macrolides, and fluoroquinolones. The data from the Tracking Resistance in the United States Today study also show a steady rise in pneumococcal resistance among common antibiotics as well as an increase in multidrug-resistant S. pneumoniae. The US component of the Prospective Resistant Organism Tracking and Epidemiology for the Ketolide Telithromycin study has detected increasing resistance to many antimicrobial agents among common respiratory isolates, with marked geographic variations in resistance patterns. The patterns of resistance detected by these major surveillance programs are a warning signal regarding the continued emergence of resistance among community-acquired respiratory tract pathogens.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
