Figure 3.
Comparison of the number of reads in BALF and blood mNGS for different viruses. The Log10(SDSMRN + 1) of viruses detected by BALF and blood mNGS were shown in blue and yellow. The paired data were connected by a straight line: red suggested a higher result in BALF and black suggested higher in blood. Abbreviations: mNGS, metagenomic next-generation sequencing; BALF, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; EBV, Epstein-Barr virus; CMV, Cytomegalovirus; HAdv, human adenovirus; HSV1, Herpes Simplex Virus type 1; SDSMRN, the number of reads stringently mapped to pathogen species.
