Diagnosis of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children by a whole-blood transcriptional signature

To identify a diagnostic blood transcriptomic signature that distinguishes multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) from Kawasaki Disease (KD), bacterial infections and viral infections. Children presenting with MIS-C to participating hospitals in the United Kingdom and the European Union between April 2020-April 2021 were prospectively recruited. Whole blood RNA Sequencing was performed, contrasting the transcriptomes of children with MIS-C to those from children with KD, definite bacterial and viral infections. Data deposited here comprises samples from patients recruited into the DIAMONDS study.
