Application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing in the diagnosis and treatment of recurrent urinary tract infection in kidney transplant recipients

BackgroundRapid and accurate pathogen diagnosis is an urgent unmet clinical need for recurrent urinary tract infection (RUTI) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) may offer another strategy for diagnosing uropathogens but remains to be studied.Methods...
