A needle in a haystack: metagenomic DNA sequencing to quantify <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> DNA and diagnose tuberculosis

2022-04-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant cause of mortality worldwide. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing has the potential to reveal biomarkers of active disease, identify coinfection, and improve detection for sputum-scarce or culture-negative cases. <h4>Methods</h4> We conducted a large-scale comparative study of 427 plasma, urine, and oral swab samples from 334 individu...
