[Values of hemisoagglutinins and immunoglobulins among patients with surgical diseases and blood donors. Preliminary communication (author's transl)].

Our investigations show distinctly higher values of hemagglutinins and immunoglobulins in patients with severe consuming and tumor diseases than in blood donors or subjects with slighter illness. Therefore, those are often able to form much more antibodies than supposed till now, inspite of their severe or cancer diseases. The stimulation of their immune system by intestinal mucosa is discussed, containing compounds identical to blood group substances A and B. They are resorbed from ulcers or during operations. More than 3/4 of our patients with severe or cancer diseases suffered from gastro- or intestinal illness. Cancer patients having often a good antibody forming system do not need automatically stimulating means such as BCG-vaccine in the cancer diseases.
