Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Vitamin D levels and genetic factors, vitamin D receptor (VDR) and Toll like receptor- 2 (TLR-2) gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), determine susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. We aimed to evaluate vitamin D deficiency, VDR and TLR-2 gene SNPs in tuberculous meningitis (TBM). METHODS: This case-control study included 130 subjects each in three arms (TBM, pulmonary tuberculosis and...
