Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

Her primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Hyperalgesia, Pathology, Neuropathic pain and Sciatic nerve. Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Placebo, Endocrinology, Surgery and Analgesic. As a part of the same scientific study, Claudia Sommer usually deals with the Hyperalgesia, concentrating on Cytokine and frequently concerns with Tumor necrosis factor alpha and Proinflammatory cytokine.

Her Pathology study deals with Polyradiculoneuropathy intersecting with Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. Her Neuropathic pain study deals with the bigger picture of Anesthesia. Her Sciatic nerve study combines topics in areas such as Peripheral neuropathy, Nerve injury and Wallerian degeneration.

Her most cited work include:

  • The International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition (beta version) (5428 citations)
  • European Federation of Neurological Societies/Peripheral Nerve Society Guideline on Management of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy: Report of a Joint Task Force of the European Federation of Neurological Societies and the Peripheral Nerve Society - First Revision (745 citations)
  • NeuPSIG guidelines on neuropathic pain assessment (721 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Pathology, Neuropathic pain, Anesthesia and Endocrinology. As part of the same scientific family, Claudia Sommer usually focuses on Internal medicine, concentrating on Placebo and intersecting with Randomized controlled trial. Her Pathology research includes elements of Peripheral neuropathy and Nerve fiber.

Her Neuropathic pain course of study focuses on Physical therapy and Neurology and Guideline. Her research investigates the connection between Anesthesia and topics such as Hyperalgesia that intersect with issues in Sciatic nerve and Pharmacology. Her studies deal with areas such as Tumor necrosis factor alpha and Proinflammatory cytokine as well as Cytokine.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (27.38%)
  • Pathology (22.05%)
  • Neuropathic pain (18.06%)

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

  • Internal medicine (27.38%)
  • Neuropathic pain (18.06%)
  • Pathology (22.05%)

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

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Neuropathic pain, Pathology, Fabry disease and Skin biopsy. Her Internal medicine research integrates issues from Gastroenterology, Placebo, Endocrinology and Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. Her Neuropathic pain study contributes to a more complete understanding of Anesthesia.

Her Pathology study incorporates themes from Nerve biopsy and Nerve fiber. Her research integrates issues of Parkinson's disease and Alpha-synuclein in her study of Skin biopsy. Her Hyperalgesia research incorporates themes from Young adult and Sensory system.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Peripheral neuropathic pain: a mechanism-related organizing principle based on sensory profiles. (281 citations)
  • Subcutaneous immunoglobulin for maintenance treatment in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (PATH): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial (138 citations)
  • Dermal phospho-alpha-synuclein deposits confirm REM sleep behaviour disorder as prodromal Parkinson’s disease (130 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Disease

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Neuropathic pain, Pathology, Autoantibody and Skin biopsy. Her work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology, Placebo and Endocrinology. The Neuropathic pain study combines topics in areas such as Peripheral neuropathy, Diabetic neuropathy and Hyperalgesia.

Claudia Sommer interconnects Concordance and Thigh in the investigation of issues within Pathology. Her Autoantibody study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Disease, Subclass and Polyradiculoneuropathy. Her research in Skin biopsy intersects with topics in Peripheral, Atrophy, Sural nerve and Synucleinopathies.
