“…Two decades ago, most pneumonia cases in such patients were classified as 'unknown origin' since full-scale PCR assays for viruses were not used, like as express diagnostics of bacterial cultures. Introduction of molecular biology testing allowed to extend opportunities of viral diagnostics in immunocompromised patients with leukemias and lymphoma [5].…”

“…Potential role of viral pathogens, especially, herpesviruses, in development of bloodstream infections is also poorly understood, despite their common reactivation during mixed infections in hemato-oncological patients. [5].…”

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.
