Influence of Single-nucleotide Polymorphism of INF-γ (rs.2430561, +874 A/T) and Interleukin-10 (rs.1800896, −1082 A/G) on the Risk of Tuberculosis and Drug Resistance in Kaduna State, Nigeria
The prevalence of specific genotypes and alleles indicates potential genetic markers for risk assessment. Deviations from HWE suggest population-specific genetic variations. These findings underscore the importance of genetic factors in TB outcomes and advocate for tailored interventions for different populations.
