Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) plays a key role in the containment of tuberculosis. The relationship between the TNF -238G/A polymorphism and tuberculosis susceptibility remains inconclusive. A comprehensive meta-analysis was made to provide a more precise estimate of the relationship between them. METHODS: Multiple search strategies were used. A fixed effect model was takentook to estimate...
