Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His primary scientific interests are in Odds ratio, Melanoma, Epidemiology, Risk factor and Cancer. His Odds ratio study is focused on Internal medicine in general. Bruce K. Armstrong has included themes like Gastroenterology and Endocrinology in his Internal medicine study.

The Melanoma study combines topics in areas such as Dermatology, Sun exposure and Oncology. His Epidemiology study combines topics in areas such as Incidence, Gerontology, Environmental exposure and Population study. His work in Cancer tackles topics such as Survival rate which are related to areas like Breslow Thickness.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental factors and cancer incidence and mortality in different countries, with special reference to dietary practices (1876 citations)
  • The epidemiology of UV induced skin cancer. (1298 citations)
  • Principles of Exposure Measurement in Epidemiology (593 citations)

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

Internal medicine, Cancer, Odds ratio, Oncology and Melanoma are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Endocrinology and Surgery in his study of Internal medicine. His study in Cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gynecology, Incidence and Disease.

His Odds ratio research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pregnancy, Logistic regression, Case-control study, Confidence interval and Risk factor. His Case-control study research includes elements of Immunology, Epidemiology and Pediatrics. His research in Melanoma tackles topics such as Dermatology which are related to areas like Skin cancer and Sunlight.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (33.75%)
  • Cancer (22.50%)
  • Odds ratio (19.46%)

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

  • Internal medicine (33.75%)
  • Melanoma (18.04%)
  • Oncology (19.46%)

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

Bruce K. Armstrong mainly investigates Internal medicine, Melanoma, Oncology, Odds ratio and Cancer. His studies examine the connections between Internal medicine and genetics, as well as such issues in Risk assessment, with regards to Relative risk. In his study, Lentigo maligna is inextricably linked to Dermatology, which falls within the broad field of Melanoma.

His research in Oncology intersects with topics in Absolute risk reduction, Logistic regression and Immunology. Bruce K. Armstrong has researched Odds ratio in several fields, including Epidemiology, Cohort study, Case-control study, Genotype and Cohort. His Cancer research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Incidence and Family medicine.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Differences in the carcinogenic evaluation of glyphosate between the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). (81 citations)
  • The D-Health Trial: A randomized trial of vitamin D for prevention of mortality and cancer (70 citations)
  • Sun exposure and skin cancer, and the puzzle of cutaneous melanoma: A perspective on Fears et al. Mathematical models of age and ultraviolet effects on the incidence of skin cancer among whites in the United States. American Journal of Epidemiology 1977; 105: 420–427 (46 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Odds ratio, Melanoma, Cohort study and Cancer. His work deals with themes such as Surgery, Oncology and Risk assessment, which intersect with Internal medicine. The concepts of his Surgery study are interwoven with issues in Relative risk, Case-control study and Peritoneal mesothelioma.

His Odds ratio research incorporates themes from Pregnancy, Age of onset, Pediatrics, Cohort and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Many of his studies on Melanoma involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Dermatology. His Cancer study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mesothelioma, Gynecology, Incidence and Environmental exposure.
