	Viral Myocarditis: Coxsackie Virus Infections
		The coxsackie viruses are divided into two major subgroups, labeled A and B. There are 23 known coxsackie A viruses that usually cause only enteric diseases, and 6 known coxsackie B viruses, which are the ones of greatest concern because of their ability to cause serious diseases beyond the intestinal tract.
		Coxsackie B viruses are estimated to be responsible for at least 50% of the cases of infection-caused heart diseases.
		Coxsackie infections are recognized as health problems in modern China, contributing to the high rates of childhood intestinal disease, meningitis, and, for adults, myocarditis.

		Herpangina, another coxsackie virus infection of the throat, causes blisters and ulcers on the soft palate, roof of the mouth, and tonsils (3).
		The coxsackie virus mutates over long periods of time and is known to alter its pattern of behavior as well as its preferred tissue or organ target (7).
		Coxsackie virus replication begins in the gastrointestinal tract, or the respiratory tract, and then progresses to the blood stream (5).

	Coxsackie Viruses
		Named after Coxsackie, New York, where they were discovered, the coxsackie viruses are part of the enterovirus family of viruses (which also includes echoviruses, polio, and hepatitis A viruses) that live in the human digestive tract.
		Hand, foot, and mouth disease, a type of coxsackie virus syndrome, causes painful red blisters in the throat and on the tongue, gums, inside of the cheeks, and the palms of hands and soles of the feet.
		Coxsackie viruses can also cause meningitis, an infection of the meninges (the three membranes that envelop the brain and spinal cord), and rarely, encephalitis, a brain infection.

	UNDERSTANDING THE COXSACKIE VIRUS
		It can change targets, and raise its destructive capability more easily than Coxsackie A. The capacity to mutate is in-built, and co-relates with disease outbreaks; Every two to five years, Coxsackie B produces a new "model" which attacks very young children, who by virtue of their age have never been exposed to this virus.
		Coxsackie A is associated with "hand, foot and mouth" disease and was first documented in 1957, nearly a decade after the virus was first identified.
		The "Achilles heel" of the Coxsackie B virus is that it is readily inactivated by certain agents: ultraviolet light, chlorine, formalin and heating to 56

	Picornaviruses- Enteroviruses and general features of picornaviruses
		Coxsackie type A usually is associated with surface rashes (exanthems) while type B typically causes internal symptoms (pleurodynia, myocarditis) but both can also cause paralytic disease or mild respiratory tract infection.
		Both Coxsackie virus A and B can cause aseptic meningitis which is so-called because it is not of bacterial origin.
		Acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis is caused by Coxsackie A24 and enterovirus 70.

	Real or media-mediated outbreak of coxsackie infections in 2002 in Greece?
		A case of recent coxsackie B infection was defined as any person with clinical symptoms compatible with coxsackie B infection and detectable IgM antibodies during the entire period under study.
		The coxsackie B viruses, members of the Picornaviridae family, are known as causative agents of infections occurring in humans with different clinical features, such as rash, fever, epidemic myalgia, aseptic meningitis, myositis, myocarditis, pericarditis, dilated cardiomyopathy, respiratory and gastrointestinal infections [3].
		The comparison of clinical syndromes in cases of coxsackie B infections in both periods showed that respiratory infections, mainly pneumonia cases, predominated among children in 2002, while in adults the only remarkable change was a higher proportion of cases with myopericarditis although absolute numbers of myopericarditis cases were actually lower than in the period 1998-2001.

	COXSACKIE CAUSE DIABETES?
		The most recent research shows that many cases of juvenile diabetes are caused by infection with a common cold or intestinal virus called Coxsackie B. One year ago, researchers in California and Florida reported that a coxsackie virus may cause juvenile diabetes.
		This is very exciting news because, we should be able to prevent the type of juvenile diabetes associated with coxsackie virus by immunizing susceptible children against coxsackie virus soon after birth.
		So when a coxsackie virus gets into your body, you make antibodies against that virus which attach to and destroy the virus, but they also attach to the GAD protein in the pancreas and destroys the insulin- producing cells in genetically susceptible children.
