The presence of BV was associated with higher concentrations of CF IL-1β (4117 pg/mL (IQR 1383–5364) vs 799 pg/mL (126–4222) p = 0.05) and IL-13 (367 pg/mL (IQR 252–782) vs 134 pg/mL (IQR 35–393) p = 0.04) compared to women with no BV, not withstanding Bonferroni correction. Here, IL13 is linked to bacterial vaginosis.
