None of them developed overt symptoms and signs of tick-borne relapsing fever as observed in the subjects from groups I and II. Our patients had nail abnormalities typical for leukonychia partialis of the acquired type, since color changes had not been noted before the present illness and were transient. We would welcome correspondence from others who have seen nail color abnormalities in Kawasaki disease. COLLEAGUES -We examined paired sera from 62 infants with acute non bacterial gastroenteritis and from 50 age-matched controls (admitted to the hospital for nondiarrheal diseases) for antibody to human coronavirus (HCV) OC43 and neonatal-calf diarrhea coronavirus (NCDCY). Convalescent-phase sera from all the patients positive for excretion of coronavirus-like particles in stools, and seronegative for previous HCV OC43 infections, reacted by IEM with HECY-24 and HECV-35 and, to a lesser extent, with HCY OC43.	./cache/cord-007305-pkjfnhro.txt	./txt/cord-007305-pkjfnhro.txt
