Defining RNA Transcriptional Biosignatures to Distinguish Febrile Infants 60 Days of Age and Younger with Bacterial vs Non-Bacterial Infections
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The use of microbiological cultures for diagnosing bacterial infections in young febrile infants have substantial limitations, including false positive and false negative cultures, and non-ideal turn-around times. Analysis of host genomic expression patterns (“RNA biosignatures”) in response to the presence of specific pathogens, however, may provide an alternate and potentially improved diagnostic approach. This study was designed to define bacterial and non-bacterial RNA biosignatures to distinguish these infections in young febrile infants.
