Immune related measures of health outcomes.

Immune response Measures of immune function Health outcomes
a) Immunosuppression Reduced antibody production is an indication of decreased immune function or immunosuppression that may indicate a greater risk of disease. Decreased vaccine induced antibody response, infections
b) Hypersensitivity Exaggerated allergic responses when exposed to foreign agents. Allergic reaction, atopic dermatitis (dermal response), asthma (respiratory response), total IgE (circulating)
c) Autoimmunity Autoimmune disease and related effects as a result of immune responses against self-molecules. Celiac disease, juvenile dermatomyositis, lupus
