Common TLR1 genetic variation is not associated with death from melioidosis, a common cause of sepsis in rural Thailand.

Common TLR1 genetic variation is not associated with death from melioidosis, a common cause of sepsis in rural Thailand.

Melioidosis, infection caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, is a common cause of sepsis in northeast Thailand.
