Pneumocystis jirovecii with high probability detected in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of chemotherapy-related interstitial pneumonia in patients with lymphoma using metagenomic next-generation sequencing technology

Abstract Background Previous studies achieved low microbial detection rates in lymphoma patients with interstitial pneumonia (IP) after chemotherapy. However, the metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is a comprehensive approach that is expected to improve the pathogen identification rate. T...
