Fever is a common presentation to urgent-care services and is linked to multiple disease processes. To rapidly determine the etiology of fever, improved diagnostic modalities are necessary. This prospective study of 100 hospitalized febrile patients included both positive (FP) and negative (FN) subjects in terms of infection status and 22 healthy controls (HC). We evaluated the performance of a novel PCR-based assay measuring five host mRNA transcripts directly from whole blood to differentiate infectious versus non-infectious febrile syndromes as compared to traditional pathogen-based microbiology results. The FP and FN groups observed a robust network structure with a significant correlation between the five genes. There were statistically significant associations between positive infection status and four of the five genes: IRF-9 (OR = 1.750, 95% CI = 1.16–2.638), ITGAM (OR = 1.533, 95% CI = 1.047–2.244), PSTPIP2 (OR = 2.191, 95% CI = 1.293–3.711), and RUNX1 (OR = 1.974, 95% CI = 1.069–3.646). We developed a classifier model to classify study participants based on these five genes and other variables of interest to assess the discriminatory power of the genes. The classifier model correctly classified more than 80% of the participants into their respective groups, i.e., FP or FN. The GeneXpert prototype holds promise for guiding rapid clinical decision-making, reducing healthcare costs, and improving outcomes in undifferentiated febrile patients presenting for urgent evaluation.
