Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cardiology

John W. Kirklin mostly deals with Cardiology, Internal medicine, Surgery, Risk factor and Tetralogy of Fallot. In the subject of general Cardiology, his work in Stenosis, Cardiopulmonary bypass and Ventricle is often linked to In patient, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His studies deal with areas such as Transposition of the great vessels, Heart disease and Valve replacement as well as Surgery.

His Heart disease study combines topics in areas such as Hemodynamics and Cardiac catheterization. The various areas that John W. Kirklin examines in his Risk factor study include Prospective cohort study, Early phase, Pulmonary valve and Tricuspid valve. His Tetralogy of Fallot research includes themes of Late results, Sudden death, Surgical treatment and Pulmonary atresia.

His most cited work include:

  • Complement and the damaging effects of cardiopulmonary bypass (1206 citations)
  • Complement activation during cardiopulmonary bypass. Evidence for generation of C3a and C5a anaphylatoxins (1032 citations)
  • Long-term outcome in patients undergoing surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. (815 citations)

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

John W. Kirklin mainly investigates Internal medicine, Cardiology, Surgery, Tetralogy of Fallot and Anesthesia. His work on Artery, Cardiac output, Heart failure and Heart septal defect as part of general Internal medicine research is frequently linked to In patient, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Stenosis, Hemodynamics, Pulmonary artery, Ventricle and Mitral valve study are his primary interests in Cardiology.

His Surgery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Heart disease and Risk factor. The concepts of his Tetralogy of Fallot study are interwoven with issues in Pulmonary valve and Pulmonary atresia. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Circulatory system and Blood pressure.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (52.84%)
  • Cardiology (51.66%)
  • Surgery (46.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1985-2016)?

  • Surgery (46.45%)
  • Internal medicine (52.84%)
  • Cardiology (51.66%)

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

John W. Kirklin mainly focuses on Surgery, Internal medicine, Cardiology, Tetralogy of Fallot and Heart disease. John W. Kirklin interconnects Ventricle, Transposition of the great vessels and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Surgery. He frequently studies issues relating to Surgical treatment and Internal medicine.

Cardiology connects with themes related to Anesthesia in his study. The concepts of his Tetralogy of Fallot study are interwoven with issues in Pulmonary valve, Primary repair and Atresia. His research in Heart disease intersects with topics in Surgical repair and Hemodynamics.

Between 1985 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Long-term outcome in patients undergoing surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. (815 citations)
  • Long-term outcome after surgical repair of isolated atrial septal defect. Follow-up at 27 to 32 years (601 citations)
  • Outcome after a "perfect" Fontan operation. (425 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cardiology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Surgery, Cardiology, Internal medicine, Risk factor and Heart disease. The Surgery study combines topics in areas such as Transposition of the great vessels and Stenosis. His Cardiology study typically links adjacent topics like Complication.

His work in the fields of Ejection fraction, New York Heart Association Class I and Thoracic aorta overlaps with other areas such as In patient and Myotomy. His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Muscle hypertrophy, Prospective cohort study and Early phase. He has included themes like Hemodynamics and Vascular disease in his Heart disease study.
