FIGURE 1 Distribution of levels of P450 side-chain cleavage antibodies (A), 17α-hydroxylase (17α-OH) antibodies (B), and 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD) antibodies in 81 women with premature ovarian failure and 90 healthy controls. Each dot represents a single participant. The dashed lines show the upper levels of normal of the three assays. Falorni. Steroid-cell antibodies in premature ovarian failure. Fertil Steril 2002.
