Microbiological Diagnostic Performance and Clinical Effect of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing for the Detection of Immunocompromised Patients With Community-Acquired Pneumonia

Abstract excerpt

Objective: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) presents a significant public health concern, necessitating timely and precise diagnosis. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has shown promise as a powerful tool for pathogen identification in infectious diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and clinical applicability of mNGS for immunocompromised patients with CAP compared to the...
