Weight loss is associated with increased serum levels of protective responses to the influenza vaccine and reduced autoimmune antibodies. Serum samples were collected from the 4 groups of individuals. Vaccine-specific antibodies were evaluated by HAI (A). Results show the reciprocal of the titers 4 weeks after vaccination.MDA-specific (B) and dsDNA-specific (C) autoimmune antibodies were measured by ELISA. Mean comparisons between groups were performed by two-way ANOVA: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001
