Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Disease

Barbara E. K. Klein spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Surgery, Diabetes mellitus, Retinopathy and Diabetic retinopathy. Her Internal medicine research includes themes of Endocrinology and Cardiology. Her Surgery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Odds ratio, Incidence, Cohort study and Risk factor.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Epidemiology, Ophthalmology, Disease, Proteinuria and Pediatrics. Her Ophthalmology research incorporates themes from Age-related maculopathy and Maculopathy. Her Diabetic retinopathy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cross-sectional study, Insulin, Type 1 diabetes and Macular edema.

Her most cited work include:

  • Association of estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in general population cohorts: a collaborative meta-analysis. (2596 citations)
  • Prevalence of age-related maculopathy. The Beaver Dam Eye Study. (1651 citations)
  • An international classification and grading system for age-related maculopathy and age-related macular degeneration (1625 citations)

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

Barbara E. K. Klein mainly investigates Internal medicine, Diabetes mellitus, Diabetic retinopathy, Surgery and Ophthalmology. Her Internal medicine research includes elements of Endocrinology and Cardiology. Her Diabetes mellitus study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology and Pediatrics.

Her research investigates the connection with Surgery and areas like Cohort which intersect with concerns in Cohort study. Her studies in Ophthalmology integrate themes in fields like Optometry, Beaver dam and Maculopathy. Her research in Incidence intersects with topics in Age-related maculopathy, Demography and Macular degeneration.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (40.02%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (27.61%)
  • Diabetic retinopathy (22.03%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (40.02%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (27.61%)
  • Ophthalmology (20.58%)

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

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Diabetes mellitus, Ophthalmology, Retinal and Diabetic retinopathy. Her Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Endocrinology, Type 1 diabetes and Cardiology. Her Diabetes mellitus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genome-wide association study, Disease and Pediatrics.

The various areas that she examines in her Ophthalmology study include Optometry and Beaver dam. The concepts of her Retinal study are interwoven with issues in Retina and Epidemiology. Her work in Incidence tackles topics such as Cohort which are related to areas like Demography and Surgery.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A large genome-wide association study of age-related macular degeneration highlights contributions of rare and common variants (720 citations)
  • Diabetic Microvascular Disease: An Endocrine Society Scientific Statement. (159 citations)
  • Cardiovascular and metabolic effects of metformin in patients with type 1 diabetes (REMOVAL): a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial (150 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Diabetes mellitus

Her primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Diabetes mellitus, Hazard ratio, Diabetic retinopathy and Type 1 diabetes. Her work deals with themes such as Endocrinology, Surgery, Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology, which intersect with Internal medicine. Barbara E. K. Klein interconnects Epidemiology, Macular degeneration, Blood pressure, Stroke and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Surgery.

The Diabetes mellitus study combines topics in areas such as Odds ratio, Genome-wide association study and Disease. Her research integrates issues of Hearing level, Cumulative incidence, Proportional hazards model, Visual impairment and Waist in her study of Hazard ratio. Barbara E. K. Klein combines subjects such as Cohort study, Retinopathy, Cognition, Dementia and Prospective cohort study with her study of Confidence interval.
