Influences of Distress and Alcohol Consumption on the Development of a Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity Skin Test Response

These in vivo measures provide a biologically relevant assessment of cellular immune competence. METHODS: Subjects (N = 166) were immunized (baseline) with the novel antigen, keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), and DTH skin test responses against KLH were assessed 3 weeks later (follow-up)…

Specific hypotheses were: a) situations in which the participants were assumed to be acquainted with each …
