TLR2 Arg753Gln Gene Polymorphism Associated with Tuberculosis Susceptibility: An Updated Meta-Analysis

Table 3

Quantitative analyses results of the association between TLR2 Arg753Gln gene polymorphism and TB susceptibility in different genetic models.

Genetic model	OR(95%CI)	P	I^2 (%)	Effect model	P (Q-test)	Begg’s test	Egger’s test
A vs. G	2.20 (1.60, 3.04)	≤0.01	47.6	R	<0.10	0.64	0.69
GA vs. GG	2.70 (2.00, 3.65)	≤0.01	26.2	R	0.01	0.46	0.06
(GA+AA)vs. GG	2.97 (2.39, 3.69)	≤0.01	19.0	F	0.18	0.44	0.05

P (Q-test): p value for heterogeneity; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval; F: fixed-effect model; R: random-effect model.
