PTPN22 and Mycobacterium infection: However, all of involved genetic models didn’t illustrate an association with significance between PTPN22-C1858T polymorphism and increased susceptibility to mycobacterial infection in Caucasians [C versus T: OR = 0.22 (95% CI: 0.08–0.64, PH = 0.470) (Figure 3A); CT versus CC: OR = 0.21 (95% CI: 0.07–0.62, PH = 0.474); TT+CT versus CC: OR = 0.21 (95% CI: 0.07–0.62, PH = 0.474)] (Table 2).
