Purpose Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is a critical stage in tuberculosis (TB)control, and few studies have addressed the role of vitamin D receptor(VDR) gene polymorphisms in differentiating between TB and late-onset TB from an immunogenetic perspective. Patients and Methods Recruitment of tuberculosis patients and latently infected population in Urumqi, Xinjiang, and use of propensity score matching(PSM) to match the two groups and control confounding to further construct a Bayesian network to analyze causal associations between VDR polymorphisms and tuberculosis disease status. Results 137 LTBI and 237 TB were obtained through PSM. Logistic regression showed that the VDR gene BsmI locus, TaqI locus, and ApaI locus were associated with a higher risk of TB in a codominant model ( P <0.05). Further Bayesian network construction showed that occupation and being a VDR gene BsmI locus were direct influences on TB disease status, and the VDR gene TaqI locus played an indirect role through the BsmI locus, and the probability of TB risk was highest in individuals with manual labour and BsmI locus of the C/T type, which was 84.15%. Conclusion Bayesian network modelling intuitively revealed that individuals with a C/T type of BsmI locus and physical labour are at high risk of TB compared with TB infection, and they are key factors between with TB disease, providing reference evidence for controlling TB progression.
