Metagenomic sequencing is a promising new method for pathogen detection. We aimed to detect pathogens from archived plasma using metagenomic sequencing in a previously well-characterized cohort of 254 predominantly HIV-infected patients with sepsis in Uganda. We used Illumina sequencing and the Chan Zuckerberg ID metagenomics platform to sequence and identify pathogens. On average, each plasma sample yielded 3,404,737 ± 2,201,997 reads (mean ± standard deviation), of which 220,032 ± 416,691 (6.3% ± 8.6%) were identified as nonhuman reads. Using a background model filter, 414 genus-specific pathogen identifications were found in the 254 samples. Nineteen pathogens were previously detected positive by quantitative PCR (qPCR), compared to sequencing, which demonstrated 30.2% sensitivity and 99.5% specificity. Sensitivity was higher for viral pathogens than nonviral pathogens (37% versus 5%). For example, HIV viremia was detected in 69% of samples using qPCR, and sequencing revealed 70% sensitivity and 92% specificity. There were 75 genus-specific potential pathogens identified by sequencing in this cohort, including hepatitis B and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), among several others. qPCR showed a prevalence of hepatitis B and EBV viremia of 17% and 45%, respectively. In-hospital mortality was associated with a lower qPCR threshold cycle value for EBV (adjusted odds ratio, 0.85; P < .001) but not for hepatitis B or HIV. In conclusion, a broad range of potential pathogens were identified by metagenomic sequencing in patients with sepsis in Uganda. Unexpectedly high rates of hepatitis B and EBV viremia were found. Whether these viral infections in HIV patients with sepsis are clinically important requires further study. IMPORTANCE The use of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in blood samples is an emerging technology for clinical microbiology labs. In this work, we performed NGS on plasma samples from a well-characterized cohort, where all samples had been previously tested by PCR for 43 pathogens. Therefore, we could compare sequencing performance against that of PCR and identify clinical correlates. A broad range of potential pathogens were identified by metagenomic sequencing in patients with sepsis in Uganda, particularly viruses, which we confirmed by PCR. In addition to HIV viremia, unexpectedly high rates of hepatitis B and EBV viremia were found, which may have important clinical implications.
