Metagenomic Direct Diagnosis of Polymicrobial Community-Acquired Meningoencephalitis in Niger: A Case Report

2023-08-17

Abstract excerpt

Current routine diagnosis of a life-threatening central nervous system (CNS) infections is based on commercial multiplex real-time PCR (RT-PCR) and in-vitro culture investigations, targeting a limited number of pathogens, which requires implementation of a universal diagnosis at the point-of-care laboratory. This study aimed to document a case of non-routinely diagnosed meningoencephalitis in a twelve-year-old pat...
