Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial, Surgery, Meta-analysis and Confidence interval are his primary areas of study. His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Placebo, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Immunology. Heiner C. Bucher interconnects Odds ratio, Observational study, Discontinuation, Chemoprophylaxis and Cause of death in the investigation of issues within Randomized controlled trial.

The Surgery study combines topics in areas such as Stroke, Relative risk, Emergency medicine and Diet therapy. His Meta-analysis research focuses on Body mass index and how it connects with Weight loss. The concepts of his Confidence interval study are interwoven with issues in Coronary artery disease, Cardiology and Endocrinology, Blood pressure.

His most cited work include:

  • The Results of Direct and Indirect Treatment Comparisons in Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials (1343 citations)
  • Effects of Low-Carbohydrate vs Low-Fat Diets on Weight Loss and Cardiovascular Risk Factors A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials (775 citations)
  • Effect of Procalcitonin-Based Guidelines vs Standard Guidelines on Antibiotic Use in Lower Respiratory Tract Infections: The ProHOSP Randomized Controlled Trial (712 citations)

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

Heiner C. Bucher mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Cohort study, Randomized controlled trial, Surgery and Confidence interval. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Viral load, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Immunology. Heiner C. Bucher has included themes like Epidemiology, Incidence, Regimen, Prospective cohort study and Cohort in his Cohort study study.

His Randomized controlled trial study combines topics in areas such as Clinical trial, Antibiotics, Relative risk, Intensive care medicine and Pediatrics. His Surgery research incorporates themes from Placebo and Adverse effect. His work carried out in the field of Confidence interval brings together such families of science as Interquartile range, Blood pressure and Emergency medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (44.42%)
  • Cohort study (21.09%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (21.59%)

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

  • Internal medicine (44.42%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (21.59%)
  • Cohort study (21.09%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial, Cohort study, Interquartile range and Odds ratio. His study in Meta-analysis, Cohort, Cancer, Adverse effect and Regimen falls under the purview of Internal medicine. In the field of Meta-analysis, his study on Publication bias overlaps with subjects such as Acetylcholinesterase.

Heiner C. Bucher interconnects Clinical trial, Pediatrics and Hazard ratio in the investigation of issues within Randomized controlled trial. His Cohort study study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aneurysm, Ambulatory care, Health policy, Record linkage and Subarachnoid hemorrhage. His research investigates the connection between Odds ratio and topics such as Confidence interval that intersect with issues in Case-control study, Transmission and Obstetrics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effect of procalcitonin-guided antibiotic treatment on mortality in acute respiratory infections: a patient level meta-analysis (182 citations)
  • Effect of procalcitonin-guided antibiotic treatment on mortality in acute respiratory infections: a patient level meta-analysis (182 citations)
  • Effect Estimates in Randomized Trials and Observational Studies: Comparing Apples With Apples (33 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

His main research concerns Randomized controlled trial, Internal medicine, Clinical trial, Interquartile range and Meta-analysis. His studies deal with areas such as Sensitivity analyses, Pediatrics and Intensive care medicine as well as Randomized controlled trial. His work on Cohort study, Cohort and Incidence as part of general Internal medicine study is frequently linked to Institutional repository, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His Clinical trial research integrates issues from Off-label use, Marketing authorization, Cochrane Library and Study heterogeneity. The Interquartile range study combines topics in areas such as Descriptive research, Emergency medicine, Clinical study design, Confidence interval and Confounding. His study looks at the intersection of Meta-analysis and topics like Odds ratio with Comorbidity.
