Pathogenic Metagenomic Next-generation Sequencing to Optimize the Diagnosis of Decompensated Cirrhosis Infection
Sponsor: Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn about clinical application of pathogenic metagenomic next-generation sequencing to optimize the diagnosis of infection in decompensated cirrhotic patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. mNGS testing in optimizing anti-infective drug use in patients with acute decompensation, including response to empiric antibiotic therapy. 2. Proportion of patients with re-compensation. 3. The positive rate of mNGS in patients with acute decompensated cirrhosis and the characteristics of pathogen. 4. The incidence, risk factors and clinical correlation of CMV reactivation.
