20 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
Background: The pathogens causing unexplained pneumonia in both HIV-infected or HIV-unfected patients are likely to be complex. This retrospective study aimed to characterize the etiology of pneumonia in HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected patients using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) analysis with metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and X-pert MTB/RIF. Methods: Between January 2022 and May2024, 141...
