Enhanced DNA and RNA pathogen detection via metagenomic sequencing in patients with pneumonia

Abstract Background Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is an important supplement to conventional tests for pathogen detections of pneumonia. However, mNGS pipelines were limited by irregularities, high proportion of host nucleic acids, and lack of RNA virus detection. Thus, a regulated p...
