Microbiota Emergencies in the Diagnosis of Lung Diseases: A Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Although many studies have reported that microbiota emergencies are deeply involved in the occurrence and subsequent progression of lung diseases, the present diagnosis of lung disease depends on microbiota markers, which is still poorly understood. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed to confirm lung microbiota markers for the diagnosis of lung diseases. Literature databases were searched following the inclusion and exclusion criteria. There are 6 studies including 1347 patients and 26 comparisons to be enrolled, and then the diagnostic effect was evaluated using Stata 14.0 and Meta-disc 1.4 software. The pooled sensitivity (SEN), specificity (SPE), diagnostic likelihood ratio positive (DLR+), diagnostic likelihood ratio negative (DLR-), and diagnostic OR (DOR), as well as area under
