Cortisone is the inactive form of cortisol. Elevations of cortisone may reflect high cortisol production, excessive 11BHSD2 activity, or insufficient conversion by 11BHSD1.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. The virus that causes COVID-19 is a novel coronavirus that was first identified during an investigation into an outbreak in Wuhan, China.

The presence of antibodies to Cow’s Milk is an indication of food immune reactivity. The offending food and its known cross-reactive foods should be eliminated from the diet. Bellioni et al. found that 92% of subjects with an allergy to cow’s milk showed reactivity to goat’s milk.

Cow’s Milk is the most common cause of food allergy in the first years of life; although most children outgrow the allergy by age 3 or 4.

For some, the immune reactivity persists throughout one’s lifetime and may contribute to autoimmunity later in life. Particular autoimmunities associated with Cow’s Milk include Type 1 Diabetes, Behçet’s disease and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Cow’s Milk plays a role in the gastrointestinal symptoms in 50% of patients with non-celiac gluten sensitivity and Celiac disease.

The Cow’s Milk marker measures IgG antibodies to proteins found in cow’s milk, including casein and whey. Results are reported as none detected, very low, low, moderate, or high. These levels reflect immune exposure and recognition rather than lactose intolerance or a true milk allergy. Interpretation should consider dairy intake, symptom patterns, and overall digestive health.

Coxsackie viruses are enteroviruses belonging to the Picornavirus family, which is comprised of strains A and B as well as various serotypes A1-22, 24, and B1-6. Following incubation, a variety of well known diseases can manifest themselves within the host. Coxsackie A is commonly associated with hand, foot, and mouth disease, which primarily affects children younger than 10 years of age. In rare cases, Coxsackie infections may produce mild or subclinical symptoms, yet most infections trigger the onset of flu-like ailments but may include symptoms of other diseases along the lines of pneumonia, hepatitis, and meningitis.

Coxsackievirus A7 (CVA7) is a rarely detected and poorly characterized virus that belongs to the Enterovirus A species and has three strains: Parker, USSR, and 275/58. Despite a difference in pathogenicity among the three strains, they can all be typed by CVA7-specific neutralizing antibodies. CVA7 is most closely related to CVA14, CVA16, and Enterovirus 71 (EV71), and is associated with hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). CVA7 is neurotropic and can cause paralytic poliomyelitis. CVA7 was widely detected in the 1950s and 1960s during paralytic epidemics.

Coxsackie B-1 Antibody (Ab) is a specific immunological marker used in the detection of previous or ongoing infections caused by the Coxsackie B-1 virus, a member of the Enterovirus genus within the Picornaviridae family. This virus is known for its role in a variety of clinical syndromes, ranging from mild febrile illnesses to more severe conditions such as myocarditis, pericarditis, and aseptic meningitis. The presence of Coxsackie B-1 Ab, particularly IgM and IgG classes, in serum samples is indicative of the immune response triggered by the body against this pathogen. IgM antibodies usually suggest a recent acute infection, appearing early in the course of the disease and declining as the infection resolves. In contrast, IgG antibodies develop later and can persist for years, indicating past exposure and possibly conferring immunity. The detection of these antibodies is crucial for epidemiological surveillance, diagnosis, and understanding the immunopathology of Coxsackie B-1 virus infections. Advanced serological assays, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and neutralization tests, are employed for accurate and sensitive detection of Coxsackie B-1 Ab, playing a significant role in clinical diagnosis and in differentiating this infection from other enteroviral diseases with similar clinical presentations.
