Objective: The butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) G16071A gene polymorphism has been
implicated in the susceptibility to granulomatous diseases, but the results were inconclusive.
The objective of the current study was to precisely explore the relationship between BTNL2
G16071A gene polymorphism and granulomatous disease susceptibility by the meta-
analysis including false-positive report probability (FPRP) test. Methods: A systematic
literature search in the PubMed, Embase, and Wanfang databases, China National …
