Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Blood pressure
  • Cardiology

Jan A. Staessen mainly investigates Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Cardiology, Surgery and Ambulatory. In his research on the topic of Internal medicine, Population study is strongly related with Endocrinology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stroke, Intensive care medicine and Hazard ratio.

Jan A. Staessen combines subjects such as Pulse pressure, Arterial stiffness, Proportional hazards model, Risk factor and Heart rate with his study of Cardiology. His studies examine the connections between Surgery and genetics, as well as such issues in Antihypertensive drug, with regards to Vascular dementia and Dementia. The concepts of his Ambulatory study are interwoven with issues in Prospective cohort study, Outpatient clinic, Epidemiology and Circadian rhythm.

His most cited work include:

  • Randomised double-blind comparison of placebo and active treatment for older patients with isolated systolic hypertension * (2559 citations)
  • 2003 European society of hypertension - European Society of Cardiology guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension (2492 citations)
  • Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2278 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Cardiology, Endocrinology and Ambulatory blood pressure. His is doing research in Diastole, Arterial stiffness, Stroke, Systole and Pulse pressure, both of which are found in Internal medicine. His work carried out in the field of Blood pressure brings together such families of science as Ambulatory, Surgery and Intensive care medicine.

He is involved in the study of Surgery that focuses on Randomized controlled trial in particular. His research in Cardiology intersects with topics in Pulse wave velocity, Heart rate and Hazard ratio. Ambulatory blood pressure is often connected to Emergency medicine in his work.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (86.71%)
  • Blood pressure (67.31%)
  • Cardiology (52.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (86.71%)
  • Blood pressure (67.31%)
  • Cardiology (52.62%)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Cardiology, Ambulatory blood pressure and Endocrinology. His research related to Diastole, Renal function, Arterial stiffness, Heart failure and Urinary system might be considered part of Internal medicine. His studies in Renal function integrate themes in fields like Kidney, Kidney disease and Urology.

His Blood pressure study incorporates themes from Ambulatory, Confidence interval and Emergency medicine. His Cardiology study also includes

  • Pulse pressure that connect with fields like Hemodynamics,
  • Hazard ratio which intersects with area such as Proportional hazards model. His Ambulatory blood pressure study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Intensive care medicine.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2278 citations)
  • 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)
  • Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980: a pooled analysis of 751 population-based studies with 4.4 million participants (1737 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Blood pressure
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Blood pressure, Cardiology, Endocrinology and Ambulatory blood pressure. His work is connected to Renal function, Diastole, Kidney disease, Heart failure and Biomarker, as a part of Internal medicine. His Blood pressure study combines topics in areas such as Ambulatory, Risk factor and Intensive care medicine.

His Ambulatory research integrates issues from Target organ damage, Pulse pressure, Emergency medicine, Hemodynamics and Heart rate. Jan A. Staessen has researched Cardiology in several fields, including Masked Hypertension, Stroke, Proportional hazards model, Hazard ratio and Prospective cohort study. His Ambulatory blood pressure course of study focuses on Denervation and Catheter, Surgery, Renal artery and Stimulation.
