Study questionnaire

The dataset describes the IFN-gamma in vitro production upon mycobacterial antigen and polyclonal (Phaseolus vulgaris hemmaglutinin, PHA) stimulation in a population of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected individuals (with either latent or active disease), as well as non-infected controls, for whom the IFNG+874 A/T polymorphism was genotyped. The study individuals were recruited in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. Sex, age and ethnic background are provided, as well as the number of CD3-positive cells in the blood sample evaluated and background IFN-gamma production (without stimuli).

S1_dataset.xlxs. Individual values of IFN-γ production, IFNG+874 allele, sex, age, ethnic background, IGRA and TST results for all participants in each group. Dots represent missing data.
