Simultaneous diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy and malignant pleural effusion using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS)

Simultaneous diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy and malignant pleural effusion using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS)

Abstract Background Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has become a powerful tool for pathogen detection, but the value of human sequencing reads generated from it is underestimated.
