Abstract excerpt
Aim: To clarify the role of polymorphisms rs4986790 and rs4986791 in TLR-4 with susceptibility to neonatal sepsis. Methods: To evaluate the possible correlation of polymorphisms rs4986790 and rs4986791 with sepsis risk, odds ratios (ORs) were calculated. The heterogeneity was evaluated by χ2-based Q-test. Results: For rs4986790, ORs were 1.36 (95% CI: 1.05-1.79, p = 0.017) and 1.84 (95% CI: 0.04-7.9, p = 0.410)...
