Abstract excerpt

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) develops by a complex combination of environmental, immunological and socioeconomic factors and genetic susceptibility. The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is the most polymorphic biological system and plays an essential role in the immune response against PTB. The aim of this study was to carry out a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the relationship between HLA-DRB1,...
