AI Technical Summary
Existing diagnostic methods for viral and bacterial infections have limitations in personalized diagnosis. Qualitative methods cannot accurately distinguish between viral and bacterial infections, especially in cases of mixed infections, making it difficult to make the right decision.
By measuring blood levels of myxovirus resistance protein (MxA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and using their ratio and cutoff values, an algorithm was developed to distinguish between viral and bacterial infections. Diagnostic performance was optimized by combining logistic regression analysis and ROC curves.
It achieves highly accurate differentiation between viral and bacterial acute respiratory diseases in the emergency room, significantly reduces unnecessary antibiotic use, and improves diagnostic sensitivity and specificity, especially in the prediction of bacterial infections, reaching over 90%.
