Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

Obstructive sleep apnea, Anesthesia, Apnea, Sleep apnea and Internal medicine are his primary areas of study. His Obstructive sleep apnea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Multiple Sleep Latency Test, Intensive care medicine and Polysomnography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Diaphragmatic breathing and Blood pressure in addition to Anesthesia.

His Apnea research focuses on Sleep disorder and how it connects with Vigilance, Respiratory disturbance index, Activities of daily living and Sleep Stages. His research integrates issues of Body mass index, Disease, Insulin resistance, Severity of illness and Pediatrics in his study of Sleep apnea. Allan I. Pack has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including White matter, Endocrinology and Cardiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Cumulative sleepiness, mood disturbance, and psychomotor vigilance performance decrements during a week of sleep restricted to 4-5 hours per night (1678 citations)
  • Objective Measurement of Patterns of Nasal CPAP Use by Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (1038 citations)
  • Rest in Drosophila Is a Sleep-like State (699 citations)

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

Allan I. Pack mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Obstructive sleep apnea, Sleep apnea, Anesthesia and Sleep in non-human animals. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology, Sleep study and Cardiology as well as Internal medicine. His research investigates the connection between Obstructive sleep apnea and topics such as Airway that intersect with problems in Anatomy.

His Sleep apnea study combines topics in areas such as Sleep disorder, Physical therapy, Positive airway pressure, Pediatrics and Cohort. His Anesthesia study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Rapid eye movement sleep, Lung and Respiratory system. His Continuous positive airway pressure research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Blood pressure and Intensive care medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (35.95%)
  • Obstructive sleep apnea (33.88%)
  • Sleep apnea (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Obstructive sleep apnea (33.88%)
  • Internal medicine (35.95%)
  • Sleep apnea (25.00%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Obstructive sleep apnea, Internal medicine, Sleep apnea, Cardiology and Sleep in non-human animals. His study in Obstructive sleep apnea is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Insomnia, Disease and Polysomnography. He frequently studies issues relating to Endocrinology and Internal medicine.

His Sleep apnea research is classified as research in Anesthesia. His Sleep in non-human animals study incorporates themes from Genetics, Fatty acid-binding protein and Electroencephalography. His Apnea research includes elements of Odds ratio and Airway.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sleep Apnea: Types, Mechanisms, and Clinical Cardiovascular Consequences (372 citations)
  • Estimating sleep parameters using an accelerometer without sleep diary (86 citations)
  • Symptom Subtypes of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Predict Incidence of Cardiovascular Outcomes. (79 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

His scientific interests lie mostly in Obstructive sleep apnea, Internal medicine, Sleep apnea, Polysomnography and Sleep in non-human animals. His work deals with themes such as Apnea–hypopnea index, Obesity, Odds ratio and Apnea, which intersect with Obstructive sleep apnea. His work focuses on many connections between Odds ratio and other disciplines, such as Preoperative care, that overlap with his field of interest in Anesthesia.

Allan I. Pack has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Sleep duration, Wakefulness and Global health. His study on Sleep apnea also encompasses disciplines like

  • Insomnia which intersects with area such as Body mass index,
  • Cohort and related Cohort study. His studies in Sleep in non-human animals integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology, Transgene, Fatty acid-binding protein and Electroencephalography.
