Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Liver transplantation, Gastroenterology, Immunology and Transplantation. His work is dedicated to discovering how Internal medicine, Ganciclovir are connected with Human cytomegalovirus and other disciplines. His Liver transplantation study is concerned with the field of Surgery as a whole.

His Gastroenterology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Corticosteroid, Autoimmune disease, Steatohepatitis and Chemotherapy. His Transplantation study combines topics in areas such as Antibiotics, Discontinuation, Oncology, Immunosuppression and Antibody. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hepatitis B, Fulminant and Pathology.

His most cited work include:

  • Banff Schema for Grading Liver Allograft Rejection: An International Consensus Document (960 citations)
  • A 21-year experience with major hemorrhage after percutaneous liver biopsy (529 citations)
  • Ursodeoxycholic acid or clofibrate in the treatment of non-alcohol-induced steatohepatitis: a pilot study. (490 citations)

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

Jorge Rakela mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Liver transplantation, Gastroenterology, Immunology and Transplantation. His Internal medicine study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Pathology. As a part of the same scientific family, Jorge Rakela mostly works in the field of Liver transplantation, focusing on Liver disease and, on occasion, Chronic liver disease.

His work on Prednisone as part of general Gastroenterology study is frequently connected to In patient, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Immunology research focuses on Virology and how it connects with Polymerase chain reaction, Peripheral blood mononuclear cell and Molecular biology. He has included themes like Survival rate, Immunosuppression, Pediatrics and Intensive care medicine in his Transplantation study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (43.92%)
  • Liver transplantation (37.57%)
  • Gastroenterology (32.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

  • Internal medicine (43.92%)
  • Liver transplantation (37.57%)
  • Gastroenterology (32.32%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Liver transplantation, Gastroenterology, Hepatitis C and Surgery. His Liver transplantation study is focused on Transplantation in general. His Gastroenterology research includes themes of Fatty liver, Hepatectomy, Living donor liver transplantation and Pathology.

His Hepatitis C research incorporates elements of Pegylated interferon, Ribavirin, Hepatitis C virus and Kidney transplantation. His Surgery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as All cause mortality and Cardiology. His studies in Hepatitis integrate themes in fields like Hepatitis B and Emergency medicine.

Between 2005 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Six‐minute walk distance predicts mortality in liver transplant candidates (170 citations)
  • Portal vein thrombosis in patients with end stage liver disease awaiting liver transplantation: outcome of anticoagulation. (97 citations)
  • Natural history of post-liver transplantation hepatitis C: A review of factors that may influence its course. (82 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

Jorge Rakela mostly deals with Internal medicine, Liver transplantation, Gastroenterology, Liver disease and Hepatocellular carcinoma. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Oncology in his study. As part of his research on Liver transplantation, studies on Surgery and Transplantation are part of the effort.

His Gastroenterology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pathology, Ribavirin, Hepatitis C virus and Fatty liver. Jorge Rakela works mostly in the field of Hepatitis C virus, limiting it down to topics relating to Peripheral blood mononuclear cell and, in certain cases, Immunology, as a part of the same area of interest. His research integrates issues of Regenerative medicine, Stem cell, Retrospective cohort study and Bioinformatics in his study of Liver disease.
