Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Health care

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Surgery, Randomized controlled trial and Renal function. His research investigates the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Cardiology that cross with problems in Blood pressure. His Kidney disease study incorporates themes from Epidemiology, Demography, Renal replacement therapy, Dialysis and End stage renal disease.

His Surgery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Acute kidney injury, Proteinuria, Intensive care and Odds ratio. His studies in Randomized controlled trial integrate themes in fields like Adverse effect and Clinical trial. The various areas that Alan Cass examines in his Renal function study include Creatinine, Placebo and Nephropathy.

His most cited work include:

  • The effects of lowering LDL cholesterol with simvastatin plus ezetimibe in patients with chronic kidney disease (Study of Heart and Renal Protection): a randomised placebo-controlled trial (1691 citations)
  • Hydroxyethyl starch or saline for fluid resuscitation in intensive care (1101 citations)
  • Intensity of continuous renal-replacement therapy in critically ill patients. (1008 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Alan Cass spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Intensive care medicine, Dialysis and Randomized controlled trial. His research investigates the connection with Internal medicine and areas like Surgery which intersect with concerns in Relative risk. The study incorporates disciplines such as Diabetes mellitus, Demography, Family medicine, Disease and Transplantation in addition to Kidney disease.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Peritoneal dialysis and End stage renal disease, Hemodialysis. His study in Randomized controlled trial is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physical therapy, Clinical trial, Placebo and Aspirin, Polypill. His studies in Renal replacement therapy integrate themes in fields like Acute kidney injury, Cohort study and Hazard ratio.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (45.42%)
  • Kidney disease (44.34%)
  • Intensive care medicine (26.03%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (45.42%)
  • Kidney disease (44.34%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (14.72%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Alan Cass mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Diabetes mellitus, Cohort and Renal function. His works in Renal replacement therapy, Hazard ratio, Dialysis, Randomized controlled trial and Hemodialysis are all subjects of inquiry into Internal medicine. His research ties Transplantation and Renal replacement therapy together.

His Kidney disease research includes themes of Research design, Demography, Family medicine and Comorbidity. His Diabetes mellitus study also includes fields such as

  • Subgroup analysis most often made with reference to Longitudinal study,
  • Psychological intervention and related Emergency medicine. His Cohort research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Incidence, Cohort study, Pharmacotherapy, Acute kidney injury and Pediatrics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of Allopurinol on the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease (60 citations)
  • Effect of Vancomycin or Daptomycin With vs Without an Antistaphylococcal β-Lactam on Mortality, Bacteremia, Relapse, or Treatment Failure in Patients With MRSA Bacteremia: A Randomized Clinical Trial (48 citations)
  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's domains of wellbeing: A comprehensive literature review. (24 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Health care

Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Diabetes mellitus, Family medicine and Renal replacement therapy are his primary areas of study. His Kidney disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dialysis, Cohort study, Statistical significance and Renal function. His research in Dialysis intersects with topics in Quality of life and Transplantation, Kidney transplantation.

His research in Diabetes mellitus focuses on subjects like Psychological intervention, which are connected to Type 2 diabetes, Family support, Primary care physician and Blood pressure. Alan Cass combines subjects such as Observational study, MEDLINE, Service, Focus group and Cohort with his study of Family medicine. His research integrates issues of Acute kidney injury, Proportional hazards model and Hazard ratio in his study of Renal replacement therapy.
