We found that T2DM patients with rs33996649</span> - GA genotype have the highest PTB risk, compared to non- T2DM patients with rs33996649- GG genotype, OR (95%CI) = 4.52 (2.71 -6.43), after covariates adjustment.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of two functional missense single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the PTPN22 gene region (R620W and R263Q) in the susceptibility to TB in the Moroccan population.
