Advantages of metagenomic next-generation sequencing in the management of ANCA- associated vasculitis patients with pulmonary infections
2022-12-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Pulmonary infection is one of the leading causes of death in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). Fiberoptic bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) assays are useful diagnostic methods. In addition to conventional microbiological tests (CMTs), metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) facilitates rapid and sensitive detection of various pathogens. We aimed to eval...
