Are patient reports of cognitive problems associated with neuropsychological test performance in bariatric surgery candidates?
These findings suggest that bariatric surgery candidates have little insight into their current level of cognitive function. Future work is needed to confirm these findings and identify brief, objective measures of cognitive function that are sensitive to deficits in bariatric surgery candidates.
Together this study shows the importance of dendritic cells and costimulation in particle adjuvant activity. Furthermore, we show for the first time that CBPs can also directly induce maturation of dendritic cells.
