Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

His main research concerns Cancer, Internal medicine, Incidence, Surgery and Risk factor. Eero Pukkala interconnects Relative risk, Confidence interval, Lung cancer and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Cancer. His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology, Oncology and Pathology in his study of Internal medicine.

His work deals with themes such as Environmental health, Epidemiology, Cohort study and Skin cancer, which intersect with Incidence. His studies examine the connections between Surgery and genetics, as well as such issues in Meta-analysis, with regards to Cumulative Exposure. His studies in Risk factor integrate themes in fields like Retrospective cohort study, Endocrinology, Gynecology and Epidermoid carcinoma.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental and Heritable Factors in the Causation of Cancer — Analyses of Cohorts of Twins from Sweden, Denmark, and Finland (3206 citations)
  • Cancer risk in mutation carriers of DNA-mismatch-repair genes. (1069 citations)
  • Frequency of specific cancer types in dermatomyositis and polymyositis: a population-based study. (795 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cancer, Internal medicine, Incidence, Cancer registry and Cohort. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Epidemiology, Lung cancer, Surgery and Risk factor. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Gastroenterology and Oncology.

His Incidence research integrates issues from Occupational cancer, Environmental health, Skin cancer, Confidence interval and Pediatrics. His Cancer registry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gynecology and Standardized mortality ratio. His study looks at the intersection of Cohort and topics like Cohort study with Hazard ratio.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cancer (51.42%)
  • Internal medicine (44.26%)
  • Incidence (35.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (44.26%)
  • Cancer (51.42%)
  • Incidence (35.90%)

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

Eero Pukkala mostly deals with Internal medicine, Cancer, Incidence, Cohort and Confidence interval. His Internal medicine study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Oncology. His work in Cancer tackles topics such as Epidemiology which are related to areas like Cause of death.

The Incidence study combines topics in areas such as Surgery, Gastroenterology, Relative risk, Young adult and Pediatrics. His research investigates the connection with Confidence interval and areas like Occupational cancer which intersect with concerns in Job-exposure matrix and Bladder cancer. His Cohort study research incorporates elements of Lung cancer and Comorbidity.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Distinctive Cancer Associations in Patients With Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (127 citations)
  • Pioglitazone and bladder cancer risk: a multipopulation pooled, cumulative exposure analysis (112 citations)
  • Nordic Cancer Registries – an overview of their procedures and data comparability (100 citations)

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

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Disease

Internal medicine, Cancer, Incidence, Case-control study and Cohort are his primary areas of study. Eero Pukkala has included themes like Surgery and Oncology in his Internal medicine study. His Cancer study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Obstetrics and Environmental health.

His work carried out in the field of Incidence brings together such families of science as Poisson regression, Young adult, Gastroenterology, Confidence interval and Hepatocellular carcinoma. His study in Cancer registry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Relative risk, Standardized mortality ratio and Intraepithelial neoplasia. His Breast cancer research includes themes of Gynecology and Pediatrics.
