Homozygous TLR2 -196 to -174 Ins>Del polymorphism and absolute natural killer (NK) cell counts measured at diagnosis. TB patients carrying homozygous rare alleles for TLR2 -196 to -174 deletion/deletion genotype had higher blood absolute NK cell counts compared with those carrying common insertion allele (p = 0.009). The box plots show 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles, maximal, minimal, outliers ().
