Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are MEDLINE, Randomized controlled trial, Surgery, Physical therapy and Evidence-based medicine. His MEDLINE study also includes

  • Alternative medicine that intertwine with fields like Medical literature,

  • Guideline which intersects with area such as Quality of evidence. His Randomized controlled trial research also works with subjects such as

  • Intensive care medicine and Heart failure most often made with reference to Clinical trial,

  • Observational study that connect with fields like Econometrics.

His work carried out in the field of Surgery brings together such families of science as Odds ratio and Internal medicine. The various areas that he examines in his Physical therapy study include Respiratory disease, Quality of life, Asthma and Quality of life. His Evidence-based medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Health care, Family medicine, Evidence-based practice, Fibrinolytic agent and Grading.

His most cited work include:

  • GRADE: an emerging consensus on rating quality of evidence and strength of recommendations (8386 citations)
  • Grading quality of evidence and strength of recommendations. (5176 citations)
  • Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: The PRISMA Statement (4456 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Randomized controlled trial, Internal medicine, MEDLINE, Physical therapy and Surgery. His Randomized controlled trial research includes themes of Clinical trial, Systematic review, Confidence interval, Meta-analysis and Intensive care medicine. He has included themes like Placebo and Cardiology in his Internal medicine study.

Gordon H. Guyatt focuses mostly in the field of MEDLINE, narrowing it down to matters related to Guideline and, in some cases, Grading. His Physical therapy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in COPD, Quality of life and Quality of life. His Evidence-based medicine study combines topics in areas such as Evidence-based practice, Health care and Family medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Randomized controlled trial (25.43%)
  • Internal medicine (19.21%)
  • MEDLINE (17.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • MEDLINE (17.35%)
  • Internal medicine (19.21%)
  • Meta-analysis (12.51%)

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

His main research concerns MEDLINE, Internal medicine, Meta-analysis, Randomized controlled trial and Guideline. The study incorporates disciplines such as Quality of life and Disease in addition to MEDLINE. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology.

His Meta-analysis research incorporates elements of Observational study, Absolute risk reduction, Relative risk, Systematic review and Placebo. His Randomized controlled trial research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Physical therapy and Clinical trial. His Guideline study deals with Family medicine intersecting with Evidence-based medicine.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Interpreting results and drawing conclusions (403 citations)
  • Discrimination and Calibration of Clinical Prediction Models: Users' Guides to the Medical Literature. (294 citations)
  • Guideline for opioid therapy and chronic noncancer pain (270 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

Gordon H. Guyatt mainly investigates Guideline, MEDLINE, Internal medicine, Meta-analysis and Systematic review. His study in Guideline is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Psychological intervention, Family medicine, Intensive care medicine, Physical therapy and Disease management. His research integrates issues of Cancer, Quality of life and Evidence-based practice in his study of MEDLINE.

The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology. His studies in Systematic review integrate themes in fields like Health technology, Applied psychology, Certainty, Evidence-based medicine and Grading. His work in Randomized controlled trial addresses subjects such as Clinical trial, which are connected to disciplines such as Mechanical ventilation.
