Metagenomic next-generation sequencing indicates more precise pathogens in patients with pulmonary infection: A retrospective study

BackgroundTimely identification of causative pathogens is important for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary infections. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), a novel approach to pathogen detection, can directly sequence nucleic acids of specimens, providing a wide range of microbial pr...
