Comparative evaluation of metagenomic and targeted next-generation sequencing for pathogen detection in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with lower respiratory tract infections: a retrospective cohort study

Rapid and precise pathogen identification is crucial for managing lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs). While metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) are emerging as valuable diagnostic tools, large-scale studies directly evaluating their real-world impact...
