    Abstract Objective: As an opportunistic pathogen, Nocardia often occurring in the immunocompromised hosts. As the unspecifc clinical presentation and low identification rate of the culture dependent methods, Nocardia infection may be under-diagnosis. Recent study have reported physicians could benefit from metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in Nocardia diagnosis. Herein, we present patients with a positive detection of nocardiosis in mNGS, aiming to provide useful information for an differential diagnosis and patients management.
    Methods: A total of 3756 samples detected for mNGS from March 2019 to April 2022 at the Fifth Affifiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, were screened. Clinical records, laboratory finding, CT images and mNGS results were reviewed for 19 patients who were positive for Nocardia genus.
    Results: Samples from low respiratory tract obtained by bronchoscope took the major part of the positive (15/19). 12 of 19 cases were diagnosis as Nocardiosis Disease (ND) and over half of the ND individuals (7/12) were geriatric. Nearly all of them (10/12) were immunocompetent and 2 patients in ND group were impressively asymptomatic. Cough was the most common symptom. Nocardia cyriacigeorgica (4/12) was more frequently occurring in ND, followed by Nocardia abscessus (3/12). There are 3 individuals detected more than one kind of Nocardia species (Supplementary table 1). Except one with renal failure and one allergic to sulfamethoxazole, all of them received co-sulfonamide treatment and relieved eventually.
    Conclusion: Our study deciphered the clinical features of patients with positive nocardiosis detected by mNGS. Greater attention should be paid to the ND that occurred in the immunocompetent host and the geriatric. Due to the difficulties in establishing diagnosis of Nocardiosis disease, mNGS should play a much more essential role for a better assessment in those intractable cases. Co-sulfonamide treatment should still be the first choice of Nocardiosis disease.
