Targeted next-generation sequencing for microbial and clinical diagnosis: a prospective controlled comparison between sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in patients with community-acquired pneumonia

Abstract Background Accurate identification of pathogens causing community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in adults is a crucial step for successful diagnosis and treatment. However, some patients cannot tolerate bronchoscopy, or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cannot be obtained in a timely manner. C...
