Relationship between clinical features and droplet digital PCR copy number in non-HIV patients with pneumocystis pneumonia

Abstract Objective Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) is a novel assay to detect pneumocystis jjrovecii (Pj) which has been defined to be more sensitive than qPCR in recent studies. We aimed to explore whether clinical features of pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) were associated with ddPCR copy numbers of Pj....
