What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Surgery
- Neuroscience
His primary areas of investigation include Complex regional pain syndrome, Anesthesia, Hyperalgesia, Neuropathic pain and Neuroscience.
His Complex regional pain syndrome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Edema, Neurogenic inflammation and Neuroplasticity.
His Anesthesia study combines topics in areas such as Sensory stimulation therapy, Stimulation, Chronic pain and Neurological disorder.
The various areas that Frank Birklein examines in his Neuropathic pain study include Audiology, Peripheral, Physical therapy, Threshold of pain and Allodynia.
The Threshold of pain study combines topics in areas such as Sensory system and Sensation.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Neuroscience, Nociception are connected with Inflammation and other disciplines.
His most cited work include:
- Quantitative sensory testing in the German Research Network on Neuropathic Pain (DFNS): Standardized protocol and reference values (1516 citations)
- Quantitative sensory testing: a comprehensive protocol for clinical trials (847 citations)
- Quantitative sensory testing in the German Research Network on Neuropathic Pain (DFNS): Somatosensory abnormalities in 1236 patients with different neuropathic pain syndromes (661 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Frank Birklein mainly focuses on Complex regional pain syndrome, Anesthesia, Internal medicine, Neuroscience and Hyperalgesia.
His Complex regional pain syndrome research integrates issues from Edema, Nociception, Pathophysiology, Chronic pain and Sympathetic nervous system.
The concepts of his Anesthesia study are interwoven with issues in Stimulation and Nociceptor.
His biological study deals with issues like Endocrinology, which deal with fields such as Neurogenic inflammation, Substance P, Calcitonin gene-related peptide and Neuropeptide.
Frank Birklein studies Hyperalgesia, namely Allodynia.
In his research on the topic of Neuropathic pain, Audiology is strongly related with Sensory system.
He most often published in these fields:
- Complex regional pain syndrome (37.62%)
- Anesthesia (30.36%)
- Internal medicine (23.43%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Complex regional pain syndrome (37.62%)
- Internal medicine (23.43%)
- Hyperalgesia (14.85%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Frank Birklein mostly deals with Complex regional pain syndrome, Internal medicine, Hyperalgesia, Anesthesia and Physical medicine and rehabilitation.
His Complex regional pain syndrome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nociception, Anxiety, Pathophysiology, Disease and Allodynia.
His work deals with themes such as Gastroenterology, Neurological examination and Cardiology, which intersect with Internal medicine.
Frank Birklein combines subjects such as Edema, Young adult, Analgesic, Sensory system and Chronic pain with his study of Hyperalgesia.
His Anesthesia research is mostly focused on the topic Neuropathic pain.
His work investigates the relationship between Physical medicine and rehabilitation and topics such as Physical therapy that intersect with problems in Psychological intervention, Multicenter study and Treatment and control groups.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Sensory phenotype and risk factors for painful diabetic neuropathy: a cross-sectional observational study. (61 citations)
- Complex regional pain syndrome — phenotypic characteristics and potential biomarkers (46 citations)
- Complex regional pain syndrome-up-to-date. (38 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Surgery
- Disease
His primary areas of investigation include Complex regional pain syndrome, Nociception, Internal medicine, Hyperalgesia and Pathophysiology.
His research on Complex regional pain syndrome concerns the broader Physical therapy.
His Nociception study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ketamine, Anesthesia, Movement disorders and Psychosocial.
While the research belongs to areas of Internal medicine, Frank Birklein spends his time largely on the problem of Pain catastrophizing, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Perceptual disturbances, Quantitative sensory testing, Anxiety, Pain assessment and Neglect.
His work carried out in the field of Hyperalgesia brings together such families of science as Immunohistochemistry, Agonist, Phenylephrine, Chronic pain and Intradermal injection.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Bioinformatics, Nerve growth factor, Inflammation, Proinflammatory cytokine and Osteoporosis in addition to Pathophysiology.
