Application of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in The Diagnosis and Treatment Guidance of Pneumocystis Jirovecii Pneumonia in Renal Transplant Recipients

2021-02-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose: </h4> Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is difficult to be diagnosed, so this study explored if PJP could be diagnosed by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and if mNGS could guide the therapy of PJP. <h4>Methods: </h4>: mNGS successfully diagnosed 13 out of 14 PJP recipients with 11 through peripheral blood samples, verified by PCR. Ten non-PJP recipients were enrolled as the control...
