Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Pathology, Tuberous sclerosis, Lung and Surfactant protein A. His research in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis intersects with topics in Lung transplantation, Respiratory disease and Pneumothorax, Surgery. His work in Pathology addresses issues such as Cell, which are connected to fields such as Lymphatic system and Molecular biology.

His Tuberous sclerosis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Angiomyolipoma, Differential diagnosis, Internal medicine, Interstitial lung disease and Lung biopsy. His Lung research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Metastasis and Etiology. His work deals with themes such as Innate immune system, Collectin and Cell biology, which intersect with Surfactant protein A.

His most cited work include:

  • Sirolimus for Angiomyolipoma in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex or Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (932 citations)
  • Efficacy and safety of sirolimus in lymphangioleiomyomatosis. (667 citations)
  • Surfactant proteins A and D inhibit the growth of Gram-negative bacteria by increasing membrane permeability (327 citations)

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

Francis X. McCormack mainly investigates Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Pathology, Lung, Surfactant protein A and Biochemistry. His work is dedicated to discovering how Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Sirolimus are connected with Placebo and other disciplines. The study of Pathology is intertwined with the study of Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis in a number of ways.

In his study, Keratinocyte growth factor and In vivo is strongly linked to Immunology, which falls under the umbrella field of Lung. In his study, Microbiology and Surfactant protein D is inextricably linked to Collectin, which falls within the broad field of Surfactant protein A. His Biochemistry research incorporates themes from Molecular biology and Protein A.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (38.15%)
  • Pathology (28.51%)
  • Lung (22.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (38.15%)
  • Pathology (28.51%)
  • Internal medicine (16.47%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Pathology, Internal medicine, Cancer research and Lung. His Lymphangioleiomyomatosis study is associated with Tuberous sclerosis. In the subject of general Pathology, his work in Cyst is often linked to Yellow nail syndrome, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Francis X. McCormack has included themes like Gastroenterology and Cardiology in his Internal medicine study. His Cancer research research also works with subjects such as

  • Silicosis together with Downregulation and upregulation and Osteoporosis,
  • Osteoclast which is related to area like Cell biology and Signal transduction. His Lung research includes elements of Malignancy, Dendritic cell, Diffusion MRI, Monocyte and In vivo.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The NHLBI LAM Registry: Prognostic Physiologic and Radiologic Biomarkers Emerge From a 15-Year Prospective Longitudinal Analysis (21 citations)
  • The NHLBI LAM Registry: Prognostic Physiologic and Radiologic Biomarkers Emerge From a 15-Year Prospective Longitudinal Analysis (21 citations)
  • Analysis of the MILES cohort reveals determinants of disease progression and treatment response in lymphangioleiomyomatosis. (12 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

Francis X. McCormack spends much of his time researching Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Pathology, Internal medicine, Lung and Tuberous sclerosis. His Lymphangioleiomyomatosis course of study focuses on Genotype and Angiomyolipoma, TSC2, TSC1, Lung disease and Survival analysis. His Pathology study incorporates themes from Transcriptome and Chronic respiratory failure.

His Internal medicine study which covers Gastroenterology that intersects with Biomarker, Menopause, Gene mutation, Vascular endothelial growth factor and DLCO. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Chemokine, Dendritic cell, Myeloid and Monocyte. His research integrates issues of Cell, Uterus, Metastatic neoplasm and Sirolimus in his study of Tuberous sclerosis.
