Abstract
⺠We studied VDR gene polymorphisms in TB patients showing different clinical outcomes ⺠Multiethnic samples were recruited to study ethnic variations in genetic predisposition ⺠We found significant association between VDR gene polymorphisms and clinical subtypes ⺠Study hints at ethnic differences in genetic susceptibility through VDR genotypes ⺠Data on genotype-phenotype correlation may help in diagnosis, screening and counselling
