Diagnostic value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing of lower respiratory tract specimen for the diagnosis of suspected Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia

AbstractAim To evaluate diagnostic performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP), in comparison with polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Gomori methenamine silver (GMS) staining and serum 1,3-β-d-Glucan (BG) assay.Methods 52 PCP patients and 103...
