Higher Native Peruvian ancestry proportion is associated with tuberculosis progression risk

2020-09-11

Abstract excerpt

The global burden of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem that is particularly severe among and disproportionately affects indigenous populations. We aimed to investigate whether genetic factors related to indigeneity affect TB progression risk in a cohort of admixed Peruvians with active TB and their latently infected household contacts. Our results show that Native Peruvian ancestry...
