Subjects had venous blood taken for IL-23 serum content by the ELISA method.

Conclusion: : There is no significant difference of IP-23 rate between the 3 groups of AV severites in women. }, issn = {2540-8844}, pages = {310--315} doi = {10.14710/dmj.v10i4.30029}, url = {https://ejournal3.undip.ac.id/index.php/medico/article/view/30029} }
