Clinical diagnostic application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing in children with severe pneumonia
2019-05-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Pneumonia is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in children. Identification and characterization of pathogens that cause infections are crucial for accurate treatment and accelerated recovery of the patients. However, in most cases the causative agent cannot be identified partly due to the limited spectrum covered by current diagnostics based on nucleic acid amplifica...
