Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Disease

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Sleep disorder, Insomnia and Sleep in non-human animals. His work on Internal medicine is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Excessive daytime sleepiness. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sleep deprivation and Somnolence.

His Sleep disorder research incorporates elements of Rapid eye movement sleep, Slow-wave sleep, Hydrocortisone and Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. His Insomnia research integrates issues from Pediatrics and Polysomnography. His research integrates issues of Obstructive sleep apnea, Hypopnea and Apnea in his study of Sleep apnea.

His most cited work include:

  • Prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing in women: effects of gender. (1215 citations)
  • Effects of age on sleep apnea in men: I. Prevalence and severity (1025 citations)
  • Sleep Apnea and Daytime Sleepiness and Fatigue: Relation to Visceral Obesity, Insulin Resistance, and Hypercytokinemia (965 citations)

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

Alexandros N. Vgontzas mostly deals with Internal medicine, Insomnia, Sleep in non-human animals, Psychiatry and Polysomnography. He has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Endocrinology and Cardiology. His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Sleep deprivation and Continuous positive airway pressure.

His studies deal with areas such as Young adult and Sleep disorder as well as Insomnia. His work in Polysomnography tackles topics such as Cohort which are related to areas like Pediatrics and Actigraphy. His studies in Sleep apnea integrate themes in fields like Sleep Stages, Excessive daytime sleepiness, Apnea and Obstructive sleep apnea.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (37.30%)
  • Insomnia (25.71%)
  • Sleep in non-human animals (24.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (37.30%)
  • Insomnia (25.71%)
  • Sleep in non-human animals (24.45%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Insomnia, Sleep in non-human animals, Cohort and Clinical psychology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sleep duration and Cardiology in addition to Internal medicine. His Insomnia study is focused on Psychiatry in general.

His Sleep in non-human animals research includes elements of Odds ratio, Audiology and Electroencephalography. Alexandros N. Vgontzas interconnects Neuropsychology, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Dementia, Polysomnography and Pediatrics in the investigation of issues within Cohort. Alexandros N. Vgontzas has included themes like Hypopnea and Apnea in his Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance study.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Insomnia and psychological reactions during the COVID-19 outbreak in China. (37 citations)
  • Mild-to-moderate sleep apnea is associated with incident hypertension: age effect (12 citations)
  • The Cretan Aging Cohort: Cohort Description and Burden of Dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment. (12 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Disease

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cohort, Internal medicine, Insomnia, Pediatrics and Dementia. His work carried out in the field of Cohort brings together such families of science as Audiology, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Sleep apnea, Physical examination and Polysomnography. His study brings together the fields of Risk factor and Polysomnography.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hypopnea and Cardiology. His Insomnia research entails a greater understanding of Psychiatry. He works mostly in the field of Apnea, limiting it down to concerns involving Neurocognitive and, occasionally, Body mass index.
