Metagenomic Next-generation Sequencing of Cerebrospinal Fluid for the Diagnosis of Central Nervous System infections in HIV-infected patients
2019-12-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> HIV-infected patients have extremely low immunity and various opportunistic infections. Early diagnosis and treatment of these pathogens is critical for patients with HIV infection, especially those with central nervous system (CNS) infections. Metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) has the advantage of identifying a broad range of pathogens and was suggested as a promising tool in the...
