Tuberculosis as a complex trait: impact of genetic epidemiological study design.

Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society - 1 Feb 2011

Stein Catherine M, Baker Allison R

Abstract excerpt

Several studies have suggested a role for human genetic risk factors in the susceptibility to developing tuberculosis (TB). However, results of these studies have been inconsistent, and one potential reason for these inconsistencies is variation in aspects of study design. Specifically, phenotype definitions and population genetic factors have varied dramatically. Since TB is a complex trait, there are many...
