Antoine C. G. Egberts combines subjects such as Diabetes mellitus and Oncology with his study of Internal medicine.

His Diabetes mellitus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Confounding, Psychiatry, Case-control study and Antipsychotic. The concepts of his Medical prescription study are interwoven with issues in Liver function, Remote patient monitoring and Discontinuation. His Logistic regression research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Odds ratio and Confidence interval.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Risk of Lactic Acidosis or Elevated Lactate Concentrations in Metformin Users With Renal Impairment: A Population-Based Cohort Study (91 citations)
  • Antidepressant prescribing in five European countries: application of common definitions to assess the prevalence, clinical observations, and methodological implications (86 citations)
  • Association of busulfan exposure with survival and toxicity after haemopoietic cell transplantation in children and young adults: a multicentre, retrospective cohort analysis (85 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

His primary areas of study are Medical prescription, Emergency medicine, Internal medicine, Psychological intervention and Pharmacy. His Medical prescription research includes themes of Medication use and Time trends. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Medical history, Potentially Inappropriate Medication List, Polypharmacy, Nested case-control study and Comorbidity.

Internal medicine is closely attributed to Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in his work. His Psychological intervention research focuses on Post-hoc analysis and how it connects with Randomized controlled trial and Pharmacist. His work deals with themes such as Glucocorticoid, Population study, Osteoporosis, Physical therapy and Rheumatology, which intersect with Pharmacy.
