MECHANISMS OF RESISTANCE DEVELOPMENT:
- Enzymatic degradation of drugs (e.g., beta-lactamases breaking down penicillins).
- Alteration of drug targets (e.g., mutations in bacterial ribosomal RNA).
- Increased efflux pumps removing the drug from microbial cells.
- Reduced permeability to antibiotics due to changes in porin channels.

KEY FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE:

1. Overuse and Misuse of Antibiotics:
- Excessive prescribing of antibiotics for viral infections where they are ineffective.
- Patients not completing prescribed courses, leading to survival of resistant strains.
2. Agricultural and Veterinary Use:
- Use of antibiotics in livestock for growth promotion and disease prevention.
- Spread of resistant bacteria from animals to humans through food chains.
3. Inadequate Infection Control:
- Poor hygiene and sanitation in healthcare settings facilitating the spread.
- Lack of proper sterilization and hand hygiene practices.
4. Global Travel and Trade:
- Rapid spread of resistant strains across countries and continents.

STOP ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant global health concern where microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites evolve to resist the drugs designed to kill them. This can lead to infections that are harder to treat, increased medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and higher mortality rates. The main causes of AMR include the overuse and misuse of antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents in humans, animals, and agriculture, along with poor infection prevention and control practices.

LIVER FIBROSIS
Liver fibrosis is like a scarring process in the liver. It's a condition where there's excessive formation of scar tissue due to chronic liver injury.

Causes:

1. Hepatitis: Chronic viral hepatitis (B, C, D)
2. Alcohol abuse: Excessive drinking damages liver cells
3. Fatty liver disease: Fat buildup in liver cells
4. Toxins: Exposure to certain chemicals or drugs
5. Autoimmune diseases: Conditions like autoimmune hepatitis

Symptoms:

1. Asymptomatic: Often no symptoms in early stages
2. Fatigue: Feeling tired or weak
3. Abdominal pain: Pain in upper right abdomen
4. Jaundice: Yellowing of skin and eyes
5. Swelling: In legs, ankles, or abdomen (ascites)

If left untreated, liver fibrosis can progress to cirrhosis or liver cancer .
