Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to establish a meta-genomic analysis using the next generation sequencer for perinatal and neonatal infectious diseases, and to identify pathogenic microorganisms that had been difficult to identify to date. As results, a meta-genomic analysis system using the next generation sequencer was established during the study period and we applied to the neonatal and pediatric patients with infection. We obtained new findings from patient specimens using these techniques, and for the first time, reported the cases to the international journals, such as a newborn with persistent pulmonary hypertension who was detected echovirus 7 from not only the serum, nasal swab and bronchoalveolar lavage, but also the preserved umbilical cord, a pediatric patient due to enterovirus D68 infection that developed interstitial pneumonia, and a newborn with congenital cytomegalovirus infection with retinal arterio-venous anastomosis.
