Materials and methods The prospective case-control study included patients subdivided in 2 groups: 42 pregnant women with a singleton pregnancy at 28–32 weeks of gestation with only suspected AIP, and 32 healthy pregnant women. The serum PP-13 levels were measured in both groups using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent as…
