Herein, we aimed to investigate the levels of IFN-γ, IRF5, and HIF-1α in cases who had COVID-19 during their pregnancy.Methods: Thirty-three unvaccinated pregnant women with COVID-19, and 129 unvaccinated healthy pregnant women (control) were included in the study. IRF5, IFN-γ, and HIF-1α levels were inv… Show more
