Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Virus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Viral disease, Internal medicine and Virology. His Immunology study incorporates themes from Incidence, Cohort and Risk factor. His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Psychiatry and Epidemiology.

Kenrad E. Nelson has included themes like Hepatitis A, Hepatitis, Immunopathology, Vaccination and Drug injection in his Viral disease study. His study on Odds ratio and Survival analysis is often connected to Incubation period as part of broader study in Internal medicine. The concepts of his Virology study are interwoven with issues in Hepatitis E, Antibody and Hepatitis E virus.

His most cited work include:

  • The Natural History of Hepatitis C Virus Infection: Host, Viral, and Environmental Factors (977 citations)
  • Viral infections in short-term injection drug users: the prevalence of the hepatitis C, hepatitis B, human immunodeficiency, and human T-lymphotropic viruses (632 citations)
  • The Declining Risk of Post-Transfusion Hepatitis C Virus Infection (597 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Immunology, Virology, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Internal medicine and Epidemiology. His Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Incidence, Cohort and Risk factor. His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Antibody and Genotype, Hepatitis E virus.

His research integrates issues of Seroconversion and Cohort study in his study of Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. His Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gastroenterology and Surgery. His Epidemiology research incorporates themes from Developing country, Public health and Intensive care medicine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (42.96%)
  • Virology (28.87%)
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (27.93%)

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

  • Virology (28.87%)
  • Hepatitis E virus (8.92%)
  • Immunology (42.96%)

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

Kenrad E. Nelson spends much of his time researching Virology, Hepatitis E virus, Immunology, Hepatitis E and Seroprevalence. His studies in Virology integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio, Antibody, Epidemiology and Genotype. His Immunology study typically links adjacent topics like Jaundice.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Viral hepatitis, Immunoglobulin M, Seroconversion and Hepatitis. His study explores the link between Viral load and topics such as Viremia that cross with problems in Internal medicine. His studies deal with areas such as Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Cohort study and Drug as well as Incidence.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Host Immune Status and Response to Hepatitis E Virus Infection (95 citations)
  • A systematic review of the epidemiology of hepatitis E virus in Africa. (80 citations)
  • Fetal and Neonatal Health Consequences of Vertically Transmitted Hepatitis E Virus Infection (57 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Virus

Kenrad E. Nelson mostly deals with Virology, Hepatitis E virus, Hepatitis E, Transmission and Environmental health. The Virology study combines topics in areas such as Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Disease burden. His Hepatitis E virus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seroprevalence and Immunology.

His Immunology study often links to related topics such as Internal medicine. He has researched Transmission in several fields, including Hepatitis B, Pregnancy, Hepatitis C, Breastfeeding and Hepatitis B virus. His Environmental health study also includes fields such as

  • Epidemiology and related Developing country,
  • Outbreak and related Medical microbiology,
  • Public health which connect with Traditional medicine and Unprotected Sexual Intercourse,
  • Young adult that intertwine with fields like Odds ratio, Men who have sex with men, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Pre-exposure prophylaxis and Cross-sectional study.
