Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Gene

Henry Völzke mainly focuses on Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Internal medicine, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Study of Health in Pomerania. Henry Völzke has researched Genome-wide association study in several fields, including Bioinformatics, Meta-analysis, Disease, Allele and Genetic association. Within one scientific family, Henry Völzke focuses on topics pertaining to Body mass index under Genetic association, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Demography.

His Internal medicine research includes elements of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Cardiology. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Colorectal cancer and Immunology. His Study of Health in Pomerania research includes themes of Epidemiology, Risk factor, Pathology, Fatty liver and Physical therapy.

His most cited work include:

  • Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults (2180 citations)
  • Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)
  • Genetic variants in novel pathways influence blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk (1543 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Study of Health in Pomerania, Endocrinology, Genome-wide association study and Genetics. His research investigates the connection between Internal medicine and topics such as Cardiology that intersect with problems in Blood pressure. His studies examine the connections between Study of Health in Pomerania and genetics, as well as such issues in Cohort study, with regards to Prospective cohort study.

His study brings together the fields of Subclinical infection and Endocrinology. His Genome-wide association study research incorporates themes from Meta-analysis, Genetic association, Locus and Bioinformatics. Allele, Gene and Candidate gene are the subjects of his Genetics studies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (46.65%)
  • Study of Health in Pomerania (30.37%)
  • Endocrinology (23.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (46.65%)
  • Study of Health in Pomerania (30.37%)
  • Endocrinology (23.27%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Study of Health in Pomerania, Endocrinology, Body mass index and Disease. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Diabetes mellitus and Cardiology. Diabetes mellitus is a component of his Insulin resistance and Metabolic syndrome studies.

His Study of Health in Pomerania study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cohort study, Population study, Demography, Confidence interval and Cohort. His research in Endocrinology is mostly focused on Adipose tissue. His work deals with themes such as Obesity and Epidemiology, which intersect with Body mass index.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • World Health Organization cardiovascular disease risk charts: revised models to estimate risk in 21 global regions (108 citations)
  • ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries (97 citations)
  • Genetic architecture of subcortical brain structures in 38,851 individuals (71 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Study of Health in Pomerania, Disease, Genome-wide association study and Body mass index. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Cardiology. His Study of Health in Pomerania research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Irritable bowel, Epidemiology, Grip strength, Magnetic resonance imaging and Cohort.

Henry Völzke combines subjects such as Incidence, Artificial neural network, Immunology, Biomarker and Risk factor with his study of Disease. Genome-wide association study is a subfield of Genetics that Henry Völzke tackles. The Body mass index study combines topics in areas such as Anthropometry, Obesity, Metabolic syndrome and Polysomnography.
