This study from Frankfurt, although similar to other reports with respect to clinical findings, presents further evidence of a varied etiology for hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Of the 6 patients with HFMD, 5 ahd virologic evidence of coxsackievirus B5 infection, and 1 had definite evidence of coxsackievirus B2 infection. Our data suggest an etiologic association of coxsackievirus group B with HFMD.

Since 1979, the State Department of Health Laboratory of Utah has screened 108,256 newborn infants for hypothyroidism. The incidence of diagnosed hypothyroid children during this period was 1 per 3,800 live births. Utilizing a normal range of serum thyroid hormone levels in newborn infants of 8.0 to 26.0 micrograms per dl, the incidence of normal infants initially considered hypothyroid was less than one percent. A review of our three years experience is presented.
