Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Pathology
  • Surgery

Erling Falk mainly investigates Internal medicine, Cardiology, Pathology, Thrombosis and Fibrous cap. Erling Falk works mostly in the field of Internal medicine, limiting it down to topics relating to Endocrinology and, in certain cases, Apolipoprotein E and Cancer research. Myocardial infarction is the focus of his Cardiology research.

He has researched Pathology in several fields, including Haematopoiesis, Stem cell and Coronary atherosclerosis. The various areas that Erling Falk examines in his Thrombosis study include Fibrosis and Unstable angina. His Fibrous cap research incorporates themes from Vulnerable plaque, Stenosis, Acute coronary syndrome and Biomedical engineering.

His most cited work include:

  • Coronary Plaque Disruption (3063 citations)
  • Myocardial infarction redefined - A consensus document of the Joint European Society of Cardiology/American College of Cardiology committee for the redefinition of myocardial infarction (1609 citations)
  • Management of acute myocardial infarction in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation. The Task Force on the Management of Acute Myocardial Infarction of the European Society of Cardiology. (1272 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Cardiology, Pathology, Radiology and Myocardial infarction. His research in Internal medicine focuses on subjects like Endocrinology, which are connected to Apolipoprotein E. Erling Falk regularly ties together related areas like Surgery in his Cardiology studies.

In his study, Edema is strongly linked to Inflammation, which falls under the umbrella field of Pathology. Erling Falk combines subjects such as Diabetes mellitus, Coronary atherosclerosis and Population study with his study of Myocardial infarction. He focuses mostly in the field of Thrombosis, narrowing it down to matters related to Unstable angina and, in some cases, Sudden death.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (48.70%)
  • Cardiology (34.20%)
  • Pathology (23.32%)

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

  • Internal medicine (48.70%)
  • Cardiology (34.20%)
  • Statin (5.18%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Cardiology, Statin, Primary prevention and Intensive care medicine. His work in Internal medicine is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Physical therapy. His Cardiology research includes themes of Abdominal aortic aneurysm, Prospective cohort study and PCSK9.

His Primary prevention study incorporates themes from Guideline and Statin treatment. In his research on the topic of Myocardial infarction, Stroke is strongly related with Population study. Disease is a subfield of Pathology that Erling Falk explores.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prevalence, Impact, and Predictive Value of Detecting Subclinical Coronary and Carotid Atherosclerosis in Asymptomatic Adults: The BioImage Study (218 citations)
  • Recommendation on Design, Execution, and Reporting of Animal Atherosclerosis Studies: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association (95 citations)
  • Recommendation on Design, Execution, and Reporting of Animal Atherosclerosis Studies: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association. (81 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Pathology
  • Surgery

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Cardiology, Disease, Primary prevention and Intensive care medicine. Erling Falk performs multidisciplinary study in Internal medicine and Risk assessment in his work. In general Cardiology, his work in Blood flow is often linked to Shear stress linking many areas of study.

His Disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Animal model and Animal studies. The Primary prevention study combines topics in areas such as Statin therapy and Guideline. Intensive care medicine connects with themes related to Pathology in his study.
