Tuberculosis severity associates with variants and eQTLs related to vascular biology and infection-induced inflammation.
<h4>Background</h4>Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem globally, even compared to COVID-19. Genome-wide studies have failed to discover genes that explain a large proportion of genetic risk for adult pulmonary TB, and even fewer have examined genetic factors underlyin...
