Why the study?
Coxsackievirus infections can rarely cause serious illness such as myocarditis, and cancer immunotherapies may increase myocarditis risk.
Pathogen-targeted next-generation sequencing can be highly sensitive for detecting Coxsackie B virus in patients with suspected viral myocarditis, a condition that can be fatal in patients with a history of lymphoma.

Consider viral testing in myocarditis during cancer immunotherapy; hypothesis-generating for ICI-Coxsackie interactions.
