Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

Gianrico Farrugia spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Interstitial cell of Cajal, Gastroparesis, Gastric emptying and Pathology. His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. His Interstitial cell of Cajal study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Enteric nervous system, Pathophysiology, Gastric mucosa, Motility and Interstitial cell.

The concepts of his Gastroparesis study are interwoven with issues in Nausea, Bloating, Surgery, Diabetes mellitus and Intensive care medicine. Gastric emptying is a subfield of Stomach that Gianrico Farrugia studies. His work on Biopsy, Histopathology and Submucosa as part of general Pathology study is frequently linked to Normal functioning, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Autoantibodies to ganglionic acetylcholine receptors in autoimmune autonomic neuropathies (498 citations)
  • Gut microbes promote colonic serotonin production through an effect of short-chain fatty acids on enterochromaffin cells (384 citations)
  • Decreased interstitial cell of Cajal volume in patients with slow-transit constipation (315 citations)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Interstitial cell of Cajal, Gastroparesis, Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. His Gastric emptying, Nausea, Irritable bowel syndrome and Stomach study in the realm of Internal medicine connects with subjects such as In patient. His research integrates issues of Enteric nervous system, ANO1 and Motility, Cell biology in his study of Interstitial cell of Cajal.

His Cell biology research includes themes of Biochemistry and Ion channel, Mechanosensitive channels. His Gastroparesis study incorporates themes from Anesthesia, Bloating, Abdominal pain, Surgery and Diabetes mellitus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Patch clamp and Membrane potential in addition to Endocrinology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (40.00%)
  • Interstitial cell of Cajal (23.67%)
  • Gastroparesis (21.00%)

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

  • Internal medicine (40.00%)
  • Gastroparesis (21.00%)
  • Gastroenterology (18.33%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Gastroparesis, Gastroenterology, Cell biology and Gastric emptying. His study in Endocrinology extends to Internal medicine with its themes. While the research belongs to areas of Gastroparesis, Gianrico Farrugia spends his time largely on the problem of Abdominal pain, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Beck Depression Inventory.

His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Interstitial cell of Cajal and Mechanosensitive channels. His Interstitial cell of Cajal research is within the category of Pathology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Diabetes mellitus and Scintigraphy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gut Microbiota-Produced Tryptamine Activates an Epithelial G-Protein-Coupled Receptor to Increase Colonic Secretion (81 citations)
  • A population of gut epithelial enterochromaffin cells is mechanosensitive and requires Piezo2 to convert force into serotonin release (63 citations)
  • Clostridioides difficile uses amino acids associated with gut microbial dysbiosis in a subset of patients with diarrhea. (58 citations)
