Association of peripheral TLR9 gene expression with renal function and inflammatory cytokine profile in chronic kidney disease: A case-control study.

Key takeaways

This study compared 60 people with kidney disease to 60 healthy controls. It found that a specific gene was more active in the sick group. It shows a link between this gene and kidney function, but it does not prove cause. This is a small observational study.
