    Abstract: Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human health around the world. Previous publications have estimated the effect of AMR on incidence, deaths, hospital length of stay, and health-care costs for specific pathogen-drug combinations in select locations. To our knowledge, this study presents the most comprehensive estimates of AMR burden to date. Methods We estimated deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) attributable to and associated with bacterial AMR for 23 pathogens and 88 pathogen-drug combinations in 204 countries and territories in 2019. We obtained data from systematic literature reviews, hospital systems, surveillance systems, and other sources, covering 471 million individual records or isolates and 7585 study-location-years. We used predictive statistical modelling to produce estimates of AMR burden for all locations, including for locations with no data. Our approach can be divided into five broad components: number of deaths where infection played a role, proportion of infectious deaths attributable to a given infectious syndrome, proportion of infectious syndrome deaths attributable to a given pathogen, the percentage of a given pathogen resistant to an antibiotic of interest, and the excess risk of death or duration of an infection associated with this resistance. Using these components, we estimated disease burden based on two counterfactuals: deaths attributable to AMR (based on an alternative scenario in which all drug-resistant infections were replaced by drug-susceptible infections), and deaths associated with AMR (based on an alternative scenario in which all drug-resistant infections were replaced by no infection). We generated 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs) for final estimates as the 25th and 975th ordered values across 1000 posterior draws, and models were cross-validated for out-of-sample predictive validity. We present final estimates aggregated to the global and regional level. Findings On the basis of our predictive statistical models, there were an estimated 4.95 million (3.62-6.57) deaths associated with bacterial AMR in 2019, including 1.27 million (95% UI 0.911-1.71) deaths attributable to bacterial AMR. At the regional level, we estimated the all-age death rate attributable to resistance to be highest in western subSaharan Africa, at 27.3 deaths per 100 000 (20.9-35.3), and lowest in Australasia, at 6.5 deaths (4.3-9.4) per 100 000. Lower respiratory infections accounted for more than 1.5 million deaths associated with resistance in 2019, making it the most burdensome infectious syndrome. The six leading pathogens for deaths associated with resistance (Escherichia coli, followed by Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) were responsible for 929 000 (660 000-1 270 000) deaths attributable to AMR and 3.57 million (2.62-4.78) deaths associated with AMR in 2019. One pathogen-drug combination, meticillin-resistant S aureus, caused more than 100 000 deaths attributable to AMR in 2019, while six more each caused 50 000-100 000 deaths: multidrug-resistant excluding extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis, third-generation cephalosporin-resistant E coli, carbapenem-resistant A baumannii, fluoroquinolone-resistant E coli, carbapenem-resistant K pneumoniae, and third-generation cephalosporin-resistant K pneumoniae. Interpretation To our knowledge, this study provides the first comprehensive assessment of the global burden of AMR, as well as an evaluation of the availability of data. AMR is a leading cause of death around the world, with the highest burdens in low-resource settings. Understanding the burden of AMR and the leading pathogen-drug combinations contributing to it is crucial to making informed and location-specific policy decisions, particularly about infection prevention and control programmes, access to essential antibiotics, and research and development of new vaccines and antibiotics. There are serious data gaps in many low-income settings, emphasising the need to expand microbiology laboratory capacity and data collection systems to improve our understanding of this important human health threat.

Perrlne, head of tbe department or eleeeric- al engineering of Stanford University from 1818 to 1999 and a nots- ble authority on technical electric mechanism, died at his boms In PlalnOeld, N. J., yeaterday. Mr. Perrlne was graduated at Prtaeeten In 1888. took the degree ot doctor or science there lo IttS and master of arts In 1110. He was assistant electrician for the eity electric lighting company at Newark till 1888, and for the next four years was manager ot the insulated wire department of John A. Roeb- llng's Sons at Trenton, and the following year waa treasurer of a big electric company at Boston, Mans. He waa then called to the head professorship of electrical engineering at Stanford, where be served for seven years with remarkable sne- ceaa ln the Inspiration be proved te bis stndents. Before coming west be bad married Mlaa Margaret Rocbllng. daughter of the head of tho great Roebllog electrical concern of New Jeraey. She and their three children survive him—two girls and a boy. While Id California Professor Perrlne waa alao engineer of the Standard Blectrlc Company of California, the Prince Ponlatowakl concern that was the pioneer high-ten - slon elecerle power company of the state. From Stanford Profeeaor Perrlne went east to accent the presidency of the Stanley iUectrir Manu.acturtng Company at Pttte- fleld, Mass. About /onr years sgo he resigned tbat position to enter private practice In New York aa a consulting expert He waa the author of a volume 6n tbe aobject of conductors and eon- ducting materials and waa a proline writer od subjects pertaining to electricity. He waa a member of all tbe great electrical and engineering societies of America and of some of tboee of Rurope. Professor Perrin was comparatively a young man. being but 4B yeara of age and of an affable and magnetic personality. wtn.tli.it Methrods of ItecnrdJag Vote*. yttttt«tS>ttt___|lttttttJUtt)ttMttttttt««-<tttt,tttt-lSS aa WE HAVE -MOVED-- THE UNIVERSITY BAZAR.

One of the Important features of the election Is In regard to the constitutional amendments. Thoae amendments number flfteen aad they wlll be ahowa along the top of the machine la the following order. A brief explanation of the amendments is given * il. Senate amendment No. 1. Separating state and local taxation. In principal this Is the most important reform proposed In California for years. Tbe preaaat tax system puts all the burdens on the landowner and ls wrong In principle and In practice. The proposed system distributes the burden, and ts light Id principle. Hut— The legislature amended the proposals of the tax commission, aad Aade the bill much more favorable to the norporattons than waa originally Intended. The separation of state aod local taxation now proponed ls Incomplete; the taxea of the corporations are fixed In the ijbnstltntion and cannot be raised, while there ts no limit on general taxation, wblcb must meet all de> flclnncles. and tber* are various ob* Jsctlons. Tbo preeent form of tbe bill ls distinctly objectionable, and the only excuse for passing it la that there Is no preeent likelihood or getting any better. It ia a step In tbe right direction, aad the only step we are now likely to get a chance to take. Tfae hill wtll be op* posed ln the great cities od distinctly selfish grounds, as well as for tha legitimate objection*. it may aa well ba supported In the country oo selfish grounds.
