Abstract excerpt

Despite the importance of behavioural and environmental risk factors, there are arguments consistent with the existence of a genetic susceptibility to human African trypanosomiasis (HAT). A candidate gene association study was conducted in the Democratic Republic of Congo using a family-based sample which included a total of 353 subjects (86 trios; one case and parents (n=258) and 23 families with more than one...
