Key result
Coxsackie viruses are ubiquitous and frequently isolated from feces, prompting consideration of their causal relationship to human diseases such as herpangina and epidemic pleurodynia.
Discusses the relationship between Coxsackie viruses and human diseases such as herpangina and epidemic pleurodynia.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Requires caution attributing disease to common fecal isolates; leaves open causal confirmation for herpangina and pleurodynia.
Diseases Produced by Coxsackie Viruses Relation to Poliomyelitis and "Poliomyelitis-Like" Illnesses Most important of the attributes of Coxsackie viruses is that of their relation to illness. Whether any or all of these viruses cause illness and, if so, what sort of illness are matters for careful consideration. It has already been pointed out that the viruses are found in many people in many parts of the world: their very ubiquity is therefore a factor of importance. Furthermore, their isolation from feces is a simple laboratory procedure; as a result, they have been widely, though usually sporadically, reported in persons suffering . . .

Huebner et al. (1952) conducted a review in Coxsackie virus infection. Coxsackie viruses was evaluated. Coxsackie viruses are ubiquitous and frequently isolated from feces, prompting consideration of their causal relationship to human diseases such as herpangina and epidemic pleurodynia.
