Clinical Application of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in Patients with Hematologic Malignancies Suffering from Sepsis
Background: Sepsis remains a common but fatal complication among patients with immune suppression. We aimed to investigate the performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) compared with standard microbiological diagnostics in patients with hematologic malignancies. Methods: We perfor...

We aimed to investigate the performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) compared with standard microbiological diagnostics in patients with hematologic malignancies. Methods: We performed a prospective study from June 2019 to December 2019. Adult patients with hematologic malignancies and a clinical diagnosis of sepsis were enrolled. Conventional diagnostic methods included blood cultures, serum galactomannan for Aspergillus, cryptococcal antigen and cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral loads. Blood samples for mNGS were collected within 24 h after hypotension developed. Results: Of 24 patients enrolled, mNGS and conventional diagnostic methods (blood cultures, serology testing and virus RT-PCR) reached comparable positive results in 9 cases. Of ten patients, mNGS was able to identify additional pathogens compared with conventional methods; most of the pathogens were virus. Conclusion: Our results show that mNGS may serve as adjunctive diagnostic tool for the identification of pathogens of hematologic patients with clinically sepsis.Wang-Da LiuTing-Yu YenPo-Yo LiuUn-In WuPrerana BhanYu-Chi LiChih-Hung ChiWang-Huei ShengMDPI AGarticleblood cultureneutropeniaseptic shockpolymerase chain reactionBiology (General)QH301-705.5ENMicroorganisms, Vol 9, Iss 2309, p 2309 (2021) |
