Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Surgery

Dirk L. Knol mainly focuses on Physical therapy, Internal medicine, Magnetic resonance imaging, Pathology and Multiple sclerosis. His Physical therapy study incorporates themes from Hazard ratio, Randomized controlled trial, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Low back pain. His Internal medicine research includes elements of Gastroenterology and Endocrinology.

His Magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Nuclear medicine, Atrophy and Risk factor. Psychometrics is closely connected to Risk analysis in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Construct validity. His studies in Research design integrate themes in fields like Content validity, Systematic review and Criterion validity.

His most cited work include:

  • Quality criteria were proposed for measurement properties of health status questionnaires (5030 citations)
  • The COSMIN checklist for assessing the methodological quality of studies on measurement properties of health status measurement instruments: an international Delphi study (1831 citations)
  • The COSMIN study reached international consensus on taxonomy, terminology, and definitions of measurement properties for health-related patient-reported outcomes. (1820 citations)

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

Dirk L. Knol spends much of his time researching Physical therapy, Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial, Multiple sclerosis and Magnetic resonance imaging. The Physical therapy study combines topics in areas such as Osteoarthritis, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Cohort and Low back pain. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Intervention and Sick leave in addition to Randomized controlled trial. His Multiple sclerosis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both White matter, Central nervous system disease and Atrophy. The concepts of his Magnetic resonance imaging study are interwoven with issues in Lesion, Surgery, Pathology and Nuclear medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Physical therapy (28.99%)
  • Internal medicine (15.23%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (13.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2017)?

  • Physical therapy (28.99%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (13.02%)
  • Internal medicine (15.23%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Physical therapy, Randomized controlled trial, Internal medicine, Osteoarthritis and Cohort. His research in the fields of Rehabilitation overlaps with other disciplines such as In patient. Dirk L. Knol has included themes like Patient satisfaction, Intervention, Family medicine, Post-hoc analysis and Palliative care in his Randomized controlled trial study.

Many of his studies on Internal medicine apply to Endocrinology as well. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Neuroimaging under Alzheimer's disease, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Nuclear medicine and Magnetic resonance imaging. His Magnetic resonance imaging study combines topics in areas such as Multiple sclerosis and Pathology.

Between 2013 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Prevalence of cerebral amyloid pathology in persons without dementia: a meta-analysis. (731 citations)
  • Prevalence of amyloid PET positivity in dementia syndromes: a meta-analysis. (324 citations)
  • Hippocampal volume change measurement: quantitative assessment of the reproducibility of expert manual outlining and the automated methods FreeSurfer and FIRST. (91 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Surgery

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Physical therapy, Dementia, Alzheimer's disease and Cohort. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Immunoassay and Endocrinology. Dirk L. Knol specializes in Physical therapy, namely Visual analogue scale.

His Dementia research includes elements of Meta-analysis, Apolipoprotein E, Cognition and Oncology. His research on Cohort also deals with topics like

  • Osteoarthritis which is related to area like Comorbidity, Severity of illness, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Cohort study and Muscle weakness,
  • Body mass index which is related to area like Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Knee Joint, Proprioception, Rehabilitation and Cross-sectional study. His study focuses on the intersection of Pathology and fields such as White matter with connections in the field of Atrophy.
