Summary

Acute febrile illness is the main cause of outpatient visits,and bacterial and viral infections remains the most common cause. The diagnosis of infection is still based on symptoms and traditional techniques, resulting in overuse of antibacterial drugs or delay in treatment. The signature of host transcripts has a potential to reveal different modes of host-pathogen interaction and may serve as a biomarker for infection discrimination. Of note, transcriptome-microarray and RNA-seq methods need sophisticated techniques and expertise interpretation, hampering the universal implement of these platforms in low-tier hospitals and under- resourced countries. This study explores transcriptome-based diagnostic biomarker for acute febrile illness , hoping to achieve rapid, accurate and cost-effective distinction between bacterial and viral infection.
