Accurate identification of pathogens is essential for the diagnosis and control of infections. We aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and conventional detection methods (CDM) in lung transplant recipients (LTRs). We retrospectively analyzed 107 LTRs with suspected infection of pulmonary, blood, central nervous system or chest wall between March 2018 and Nov. 2020. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and other body fluids were subject to pathogen detection by both mNGS and CDM. Of the 163 specimens, 84 (51.5%) tested pos. for both mNGS and culture, 19 (11.7%) of which were completely consistent, 44 (27.0%) were partially congruent, and 21 (12.9%) were discordant (kappa = .215; p = .001). Compared with CDM, mNGS detected a higher diversity of pathogens. Moreover, the turn-around time was significantly shorter for mNGS compared with culture (2.7 ± .4 vs. 5.5 ± 1.6 days, p < .001). As an auxiliary method, treatment strategies were adjusted according to mNGS findings in 31 cases (29.0%), including eight patients with non-infectious diseases, who were finally cured. MNGS can identify pathogens with a shorter turn-around time and therefore provide a more accurate and timely diagnostic information to ascertaining pulmonary infections. mNGS might have a role in differentiating infectious from non-infectious lung diseases in LTRs. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (6R,7R)-7-((R)-2-(4-Ethyl-2,3-dioxopiperazine-1-carboxamido)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamido)-3-(((1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio)methyl)-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (cas: 62893-19-0Computed Properties of C25H27N9O8S2).
(6R,7R)-7-((R)-2-(4-Ethyl-2,3-dioxopiperazine-1-carboxamido)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamido)-3-(((1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)thio)methyl)-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (cas: 62893-19-0) belongs to piperazine derivatives. A form in which piperazine is commonly available industrially is as the hexahydrate, C4H10N2. 6H2O, which melts at 44 °C and boils at 125–130 °C. Piperazines are very broad chemical group, covering a wide range of drugs from antidepressants to antihistamines. The connecting property of all these chemicals is the presence of a piperazine functional group.Computed Properties of C25H27N9O8S2
