“…Infectious diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), including meningitis, encephalitis, and meningoencephalitis, carry a high disease burden. These typically acute infections present significant morbidity and mortality, especially in children [ 1 ]. Rapid diagnosis is crucial for these medical emergencies to guide early and appropriate therapy.…”

“…Meningitis, peritonitis, septic arthritis, and pleural empyema are only a few of the potentially fatal diseases caused by bacterial infections in sterile body sites ( 3–8 ). A worldwide study found that there were 2.5 million cases of meningitis and 236,000 deaths from the disease ( 9 ). Also Wunrow et al ( 9 ), bacterial meningitis affects approximately 1.2 million people each year and causes almost 170,000 deaths globally ( 10 ).…”

“…Streptococcus pneumoniae is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide producing different types of infections such as bacteremic pneumonia, meningitis, sepsis and other invasive pneumococcal diseases (IPD). Evidence supports nasopharyngeal pneumococcal carriage as a reservoir for transmission and precursor of pneumococcal disease [ 1 , 2 ].…”
