Abstract: In this study, we explored the clinical value of next-generation metagenome sequencing (mNGS) using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples from patients with acid-fast staining (AFS) sputum smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and non-tuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease… read more here.
