title: Relation between skin anergy, lymphadenopathy and T-cell subsets in Swedish homosexual men.
abstract: Reversed T-helper/T-suppressor ratios were found in 20/43 symptomatic homosexual men. A significant lower number of T-helper cells was found in patients with skin anergy. No differences were noticed in total lymphocytes or in any of the other T-cell subsets, when subjects with and without skin anergy or lymphadenopathy were examined.
