Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Surgery, Dialysis and Hemodialysis. His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology and Endocrinology in his study of Internal medicine. Francesco Locatelli has researched Kidney disease in several fields, including Renal function, Nephropathy, Renal replacement therapy, Intensive care medicine and Peritoneal dialysis.

Francesco Locatelli has included themes like Epidemiology, Incidence, Cardiology, Aplastic anemia and Anemia in his Surgery study. Francesco Locatelli works mostly in the field of Dialysis, limiting it down to concerns involving Kidney and, occasionally, Light chain deposition disease and Creatinine. In his research on the topic of Hemodialysis, Quality of life is strongly related with Prospective cohort study.

His most cited work include:

  • K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for bone metabolism and disease in chronic kidney disease (2107 citations)
  • Normalization of Hemoglobin Level in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and Anemia (1690 citations)
  • Effect of the Angiotensin-Converting–Enzyme Inhibitor Benazepril on the Progression of Chronic Renal Insufficiency (1525 citations)

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

Francesco Locatelli mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Surgery, Hemodialysis and Intensive care medicine. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. In his study, Proteinuria is strongly linked to Renal function, which falls under the umbrella field of Kidney disease.

His Surgery study typically links adjacent topics like Incidence. Francesco Locatelli focuses mostly in the field of Hemodialysis, narrowing it down to matters related to Dialysis and, in some cases, Blood pressure and Clinical trial. His studies in Intensive care medicine integrate themes in fields like Dialysis, Epidemiology and Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (47.71%)
  • Kidney disease (21.62%)
  • Surgery (21.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (47.71%)
  • Kidney disease (21.62%)
  • Intensive care medicine (19.28%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Intensive care medicine, Hemodialysis and Dialysis. As a member of one scientific family, Francesco Locatelli mostly works in the field of Internal medicine, focusing on Endocrinology and, on occasion, Parathyroid hormone. His Kidney disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Erythropoietin and Erythropoiesis, Anemia.

His research integrates issues of Adverse effect, Quality of life, Transplantation and MEDLINE in his study of Intensive care medicine. As a part of the same scientific family, Francesco Locatelli mostly works in the field of Hemodialysis, focusing on Hazard ratio and, on occasion, Proportional hazards model. Francesco Locatelli has included themes like Medical prescription and Renal function in his Dialysis study.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hypersensitivity reactions to intravenous iron: guidance for risk minimization and management. (143 citations)
  • Data from the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study validate an association between high intravenous iron doses and mortality. (115 citations)
  • The MEST score provides earlier risk prediction in lgA nephropathy (114 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Francesco Locatelli spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Kidney disease, Intensive care medicine, Hemodialysis and Dialysis. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology, Surgery and Cardiology. His Kidney disease research integrates issues from Renal function, Gastroenterology, Erythropoiesis, Randomized controlled trial and Erythropoietin.

His studies in Intensive care medicine integrate themes in fields like Transplantation, Adverse effect, Anemia, Pathology and Drug. His Hemodialysis research incorporates elements of Secondary hyperparathyroidism, Prospective cohort study, Clinical trial and Heart failure. Francesco Locatelli studied Dialysis and MEDLINE that intersect with Consensus conference, Clinical evidence and Potassium intake.
