Discovery and validation of plasma-based protein biomarkers for the aetiological distinction of bacterial and non-bacterial febrile infections in African children

2024-01-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> In many low resource settings, the clinical management of children with febrile infections is hindered by poor access to diagnostic tools to determine whether the cause of an infection is bacterial, viral or parasitic. As a result, many clinicians resort to the default prescription of antibiotics as a safety precaution, contributing to the alarming spread of antimicrobial resistance. Commonly u...
