Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Diabetes mellitus

Karen S.L. Lam focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Adiponectin, Diabetes mellitus and Insulin resistance. Internal medicine is a component of her Metabolic syndrome, Risk factor, Blood pressure, Obesity and Body mass index studies. Her research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of FGF21 and Endocrinology.

Her studies in Adiponectin integrate themes in fields like Secretion, Biochemistry and Adipokine. Her study in Diabetes mellitus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lovastatin, Excretion and Renal function. Karen S.L. Lam has included themes like Inflammation, Steatosis and Sleep apnea in her Insulin resistance study.

Her most cited work include:

  • Prevalence, Awareness, Treatment, and Control of Hypertension Among United States Adults 1999–2004 (1327 citations)
  • The fat-derived hormone adiponectin alleviates alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases in mice (1070 citations)
  • Obstructive sleep apnea is independently associated with insulin resistance. (1004 citations)

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

Karen S.L. Lam mostly deals with Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes mellitus, Adiponectin and Insulin resistance. Karen S.L. Lam frequently studies issues relating to Type 2 diabetes and Internal medicine. Her Endocrinology research includes themes of FGF21 and Prospective cohort study.

Her Diabetes mellitus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Proportional hazards model and National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Her studies link Fatty liver with Adiponectin. Her Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Odds ratio, Blood pressure and Cohort.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (81.57%)
  • Endocrinology (64.77%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (35.77%)

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

  • Internal medicine (81.57%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (35.77%)
  • Endocrinology (64.77%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Her work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology and Cardiology. Her study in Diabetes mellitus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Obesity, Proportional hazards model and Risk factor.

Her biological study deals with issues like Biomarker, which deal with fields such as Glucose tolerance test. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Diabetic retinopathy, Diabetic nephropathy, Oncology, Genetic association and Albuminuria. Karen S.L. Lam has researched Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in several fields, including Hypoglycemia, Metformin, Bioinformatics, Blood pressure and Sleep apnea.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Heterogeneity of white adipose tissue: molecular basis and clinical implications. (77 citations)
  • Exome chip meta-analysis identifies novel loci and East Asian–specific coding variants that contribute to lipid levels and coronary artery disease (67 citations)
  • Incremental prognostic value of global longitudinal strain in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (50 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Diabetes mellitus

Internal medicine, Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Endocrinology and Proportional hazards model are her primary areas of study. Karen S.L. Lam regularly ties together related areas like Gastroenterology in her Internal medicine studies. Karen S.L. Lam combines subjects such as Polymorphism and Oncology with her study of Diabetes mellitus.

Her studies deal with areas such as Bioinformatics, Continuous positive airway pressure, Obstructive sleep apnea, Cardiology and Physical therapy as well as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Her Endocrinology research includes themes of Subclinical infection and Pyruvate carboxylase. Her Proportional hazards model study also includes

  • Prospective cohort study which connect with Incidence and Risk factor,
  • Hazard ratio which connect with Epidemiology, Vitamin E, Vitamin and National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
