abstract = {Bacterial and viral infections may cause or exacerbate
various human diseases and to detect microbes in tissue, one
method of choice is RNA sequencing. The detection of
specific microbes using RNA sequencing offers good
sensitivity and specificity, but untargeted approaches
suffer from high false positive rates and a lack of
sensitivity for lowly abundant organisms.We introduce
Pathonoia, an algorithm that detects viruses and bacteria in
RNA sequencing data with high precision and recall.
Pathonoia first applies an established k-mer based method
for species identification and then aggregates this evidence
over all reads in a sample. In addition, we provide an
easy-to-use analysis framework that highlights potential
microbe-host interactions by correlating the microbial to
the host gene expression. Pathonoia outperforms
state-of-the-art methods in microbial detection specificity,
both on in silico and real datasets.Two case studies in
human liver and brain show how Pathonoia can support novel
hypotheses on microbial infection exacerbating disease. The
Python package for Pathonoia sample analysis and a guided
analysis Jupyter notebook for bulk RNAseq datasets are
available on GitHub.},
