Research progress of infectious diseases in immunocompromised hosts using metagenomic next generation sequencing-based diagnostics
Metagenomic next generation sequencing(mNGS)based diagnostics that identify mi-crobial nucleic acids in clinical samples may be a useful tool in addressing some of these challenges.Studies of mNGS in immunocompromised hosts have demonstrated that these diagnostics are capable of identifying causative organisms in a subset of patients for whom conventional testing has been negative.But the reports evaluating the diagnostic efficiency of mNGS in immunocompromised patients are limit-ed to individual patients or small retrospective studies at present.This article reviewed and analyzed the literature to provide new ideas for conducting related research on mNGS in clinical practice.
