Purposes: To explore the value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in diagnosing pneumocystis jiroveciipneumonia (PJP) in the immunocompromised patients.
Methods: Data of 122 patients with PJP in an immunosuppressed state and 67 non-PJP patients were collected. The diagnostic efficacy of mNGS was compared with the conventional methods, including Gomori methenamine silver (GMS) staining and serum (1,3)-β-D-glucan (BDG).
