Abstract

Hallberg, D., Nilsson, B. S., & Backman, L. Immunological function in patients operated on with small intestinal shunts for morbid obesity. Scand. J. Gastroent. 1976, 11, 41-48.

Obese individuals, operated on with intestinal shunts, have been investigated with regard to immunological functions. After operation strong increases in skin reactions of immediate and delayed type were observed. Analysis of total WBC and differential counts, percentage T lymphocytes, immuno-globulin concentrations, and lymphocyte reactivity yielded no explanation of the findings.
