IL17A and cryohydrocytosis: When we analyzed all patients with CHC, serum levels of AST and ALT displayed a strong positive correlation with serum IL-17A levels (ρ = 0.716, p < 0.01; ρ = 0.691, p < 0.01, respectively), as well as a moderate positive correlation with tissue IL-17A levels (ρ = 0.393, p < 0.05; ρ = 0.377 p < 0.05, respectively).
