His main research concerns ARDS, Internal medicine, Intensive care medicine, Intensive care unit and Mechanical ventilation. The various areas that Antonio Artigas examines in his ARDS study include Lipopolysaccharide, Breathing, Lung injury and Acute respiratory distress. Antonio Artigas combines subjects such as Gastroenterology and Cardiology with his study of Internal medicine.

His work carried out in the field of Intensive care medicine brings together such families of science as Precision medicine, Clinical trial, Coronavirus disease 2019 and Anesthesiology. The concepts of his Intensive care unit study are interwoven with issues in Prospective cohort study, Procalcitonin and Emergency medicine. His Intensive care research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clinical endpoint, Logistic regression, Retrospective cohort study and Sepsis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Second consensus on the assessment of sublingual microcirculation in critically ill patients: results from a task force of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (133 citations)
  • The contribution of frailty, cognition, activity of daily life and comorbidities on outcome in acutely admitted patients over 80 years in European ICUs: the VIP2 study (60 citations)
  • Efficacy and safety of trimodulin, a novel polyclonal antibody preparation, in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia: a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter, phase II trial (CIGMA study) (47 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

His scientific interests lie mostly in Intensive care unit, Internal medicine, Intensive care medicine, ARDS and Anesthesiology. His Intensive care unit research also works with subjects such as

  • Intensive care, Activities of daily living, Polypharmacy and Proportional hazards model most often made with reference to Prospective cohort study,
  • Emergency medicine, which have a strong connection to Logistic regression, Cohort, De-escalation and Antibiotics. His research investigates the connection with Internal medicine and areas like Cardiology which intersect with concerns in Breathing and Pulse pressure.

His Intensive care medicine research includes elements of Breath gas analysis, Clinical trial, Human studies and Respiratory pathogen. His ARDS research incorporates themes from Diffuse alveolar damage, Acute respiratory distress, Lung injury and Mechanical ventilation. His work deals with themes such as Septic shock, Sepsis and Ventilator-associated pneumonia, Pneumonia, which intersect with Cohort study.
