Infants were divided into tNGS and mNGS groups based on the pathogen detection methods.

No significant differences were found in sensitivity, specificity, PPA, and NPA between the two methods (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&gt;\u20090.05). tNGS identified five strains with resistance genes, while mNGS detected one strain.
