Comprehensive evaluation of plasma microbial cell-free DNA sequencing for predicting bloodstream and local infections in clinical practice: a multicenter retrospective study

BackgroundMetagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) shows promising application for complicated infections that cannot be resolved by conventional microbiological tests (CMTs). The criteria for cfDNA sequencing are currently in need of agreement and standardizatio...
