Table 1 Demographic and baseline characteristics of participants, biochemical parameters and hormone and cyclophilin serum levels across one menstrual cycle. Variables with normal distribution presented as mean ± SEM and non-parametric variables shown as median and interquartile range (n = 11). Significant level set at *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01. Statistical comparisons among phases were analysed by repeated measures ANOVA test for variables with normal distribution and Friedman test for non-parametric variables.
From: Cyclophilin B serum levels present variations across the menstrual cycle
