Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The conducted study showed that increased production of anti-inflammatory INFγ cytokine is observed in girls and adolescents with acute nonspecific vulvovaginitis compared to the subacute course of the disease, though no adequately high production of this cytokine is practically observed in both cases. The obtained data indicate the suppression of both the cell and humoral anti-inflammatory immunity. IL-6 is responsible for the specificity and the adequacy of immunological reactions. This fact is connected primarily with the presence of multidirectional pathological changes in the immunity system.
