Vitamin D and tuberculosis.

Nutrition reviews - 1 May 2009

Chocano-Bedoya Patricia, Ronnenberg Alayne G

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis is highly prevalent worldwide, accounting for nearly two million deaths annually. Vitamin D influences the immune response to tuberculosis, and vitamin D deficiency has been associated with increased tuberculosis risk in different populations. Genetic variability may influence host susceptibility to developing active tuberculosis and treatment response. Studies examining the association between...
