Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Mutation

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Muscular dystrophy, Magnetic resonance imaging, Pediatrics, Pathology and Physical therapy. Eugenio Mercuri interconnects Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, Mutation and Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the investigation of issues within Muscular dystrophy. His Magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Central nervous system disease and Anatomy.

Eugenio Mercuri has researched Pediatrics in several fields, including Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy, Neonatal encephalopathy, Cerebral palsy and Neurological disorder. His Pathology research also works with subjects such as

  • Skeletal muscle which intersects with area such as Atrophy,
  • Walker–Warburg syndrome that connect with fields like Cortical dysplasia and Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy. His Physical therapy research incorporates themes from Spinal muscular atrophy, Clinical trial, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Cohort.

His most cited work include:

  • Nusinersen versus Sham Control in Infantile-Onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy (719 citations)
  • Mutations in the fukutin-related protein gene (FKRP) cause a form of congenital muscular dystrophy with secondary laminin alpha2 deficiency and abnormal glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan. (501 citations)
  • Origin and timing of brain lesions in term infants with neonatal encephalopathy (479 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Pediatrics, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Spinal muscular atrophy, Physical therapy and Internal medicine. His study explores the link between Pediatrics and topics such as Cohort that cross with problems in Longitudinal study. Eugenio Mercuri studied Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Muscular dystrophy that intersect with Pathology, Anatomy and Missense mutation.

His work on SMN1 as part of general Spinal muscular atrophy research is frequently linked to Nusinersen, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His study looks at the intersection of Physical therapy and topics like Physical medicine and rehabilitation with Rasch model. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology, Surgery and Cardiology as well as Internal medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pediatrics (36.22%)
  • Duchenne muscular dystrophy (21.86%)
  • Spinal muscular atrophy (22.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Spinal muscular atrophy (22.84%)
  • Pediatrics (36.22%)
  • Internal medicine (18.27%)

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

Spinal muscular atrophy, Pediatrics, Internal medicine, Nusinersen and Duchenne muscular dystrophy are his primary areas of study. His Spinal muscular atrophy study combines topics in areas such as Clinical trial, Cohort and Intensive care medicine. The Cohort study which covers Cohort study that intersects with Age of onset.

His Pediatrics research focuses on Natural history and how it connects with CHOP. His Respiratory function, Retrospective cohort study and Respiratory system study, which is part of a larger body of work in Internal medicine, is frequently linked to Repeated measures design, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work on Dystrophin as part of general Duchenne muscular dystrophy research is frequently linked to In patient, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Neurofilament as a potential biomarker for spinal muscular atrophy (48 citations)
  • Increased dystrophin production with golodirsen in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. (46 citations)
  • Nusinersen in type 1 spinal muscular atrophy: Twelve-month real-world data. (31 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Mutation

Eugenio Mercuri mainly investigates Spinal muscular atrophy, Nusinersen, Cohort, Internal medicine and Pediatrics. His Spinal muscular atrophy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Clinical trial and Cohort study. His Cohort research focuses on CHOP and how it relates to Natural history, Neonatal onset, Severity of illness and After treatment.

His work on Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Respiratory function, Randomized controlled trial and Breathing as part of his general Internal medicine study is frequently connected to In patient, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The various areas that Eugenio Mercuri examines in his Pediatrics study include Observational study, Young adult, Muscle biopsy, Rhabdomyolysis and Spinal muscular atrophy type II. His studies examine the connections between Pathology and genetics, as well as such issues in Skeletal muscle, with regards to Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
