1962. TRAIL Level and ImmunoXpert™ Score Complement Molecular Viral Detection in the Classification of Febrile Children: An Interim Analysis From the AutoPilotDx-Study
Abstract:BackgroundDifferentiating between viral and bacterial etiology is essential in order to enable the adequate use of antibiotics. Previous studies showed that TNF-related apoptosis induced ligand (TRAIL) can serve as a useful biomarker for distinguishing between bacterial and viral infections when combined with IP-10 and CRP (ImmunoXpert™). Here we evaluate the potential of a new proteomic fingerprints in children with suspected viral and bacterial infections that had a confirmed viral detection.MethodsIn the pr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
