Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing for the Diagnosis of Epstein-Barr virus Pleurisy: A Case Report

Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (CAEBV) progresses rapidly in the later stage and has a poor prognosis. The treatments of CAEBV have no unified standard and a bad effect. Only few person could cure. It is important to diagnosis early. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) offers...
