A comparison of host response strategies to distinguish bacterial and viral infection
Compare three host response strategies to distinguish bacterial and viral etiologies of acute respiratory illness (ARI). In this observational cohort study, procalcitonin, a 3-protein panel (CRP, IP-10, TRAIL), and a host gene expression mRNA panel were measured in 286 subjects with ARI from four em...

Zusammenfassung: | Compare three host response strategies to distinguish bacterial and viral etiologies of acute respiratory illness (ARI).
In this observational cohort study, procalcitonin, a 3-protein panel (CRP, IP-10, TRAIL), and a host gene expression mRNA panel were measured in 286 subjects with ARI from four emergency departments. Multinomial logistic regression and leave-one-out cross validation were used to evaluate the protein and mRNA tests.
The mRNA panel performed better than alternative strategies to identify bacterial infection: AUC 0.93 vs. 0.83 for the protein panel and 0.84 for procalcitonin (P |
