Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Diarrhea, Microbiology, Internal medicine, Traveler's diarrhea and Surgery. Herbert L. DuPont interconnects Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Feces, Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli, Etiology and Shigellosis in the investigation of issues within Diarrhea. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Virology, Shigella, Escherichia coli, Immunology and Virulence.

His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology, Clostridium difficile, Placebo and Rifaximin in his study of Internal medicine. His Traveler's diarrhea research incorporates themes from Sulfamethoxazole, Chemoprophylaxis, Trimethoprim, Prevalence and Azithromycin. Herbert L. DuPont has researched Surgery in several fields, including Incidence and Risk factor.

His most cited work include:

  • Practice Guidelines for the Management of Infectious Diarrhea (797 citations)
  • The Infectivity of Cryptosporidium parvum in Healthy Volunteers (775 citations)
  • The Infectivity of Cryptosporidium parvum in Healthy Volunteers (775 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Diarrhea, Microbiology, Internal medicine, Immunology and Virology. He studies Diarrhea, namely Traveler's diarrhea. His study focuses on the intersection of Traveler's diarrhea and fields such as Trimethoprim with connections in the field of Antimicrobial.

His work in Microbiology addresses issues such as Escherichia coli, which are connected to fields such as Bacteria. His work deals with themes such as Gastroenterology, Clostridium difficile, Placebo and Surgery, which intersect with Internal medicine. His Clostridium difficile course of study focuses on Epidemiology and Etiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Diarrhea (77.67%)
  • Microbiology (50.49%)
  • Internal medicine (43.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Clostridium difficile (23.18%)
  • Internal medicine (43.57%)
  • Microbiology (50.49%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Clostridium difficile, Internal medicine, Microbiology, Diarrhea and Antibiotics. The Clostridium difficile study combines topics in areas such as Feces, Surgery and Metronidazole. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gastroenterology and Placebo.

His work focuses on many connections between Gastroenterology and other disciplines, such as Rifaximin, that overlap with his field of interest in Rifamycin. His Microbiology research includes themes of Gut flora, Escherichia coli and Virulence. Specifically, his work in Diarrhea is concerned with the study of Traveler's diarrhea.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Traveler's diarrhea: a clinical review. (172 citations)
  • Traveler's diarrhea: a clinical review. (172 citations)
  • Traveler's diarrhea: a clinical review. (172 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Bacteria

His primary scientific interests are in Diarrhea, Clostridium difficile, Microbiology, Internal medicine and Immunology. His research on Diarrhea focuses in particular on Traveler's diarrhea. Herbert L. DuPont combines subjects such as Feces, Fidaxomicin, Surgery, Metronidazole and Pediatrics with his study of Clostridium difficile.

His Microbiology research includes elements of Gut flora and Pathogenesis. As a part of the same scientific family, Herbert L. DuPont mostly works in the field of Internal medicine, focusing on Gastroenterology and, on occasion, Excretion and Pathophysiology. As a part of the same scientific study, Herbert L. DuPont usually deals with the Immunology, concentrating on Microbiome and frequently concerns with Faecal microbiota transplantation, Clinical trial and Microbial diversity.
