What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Diabetes mellitus
Kirsi H. Pietiläinen spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Obesity, Body mass index and Insulin resistance.
Her studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Diabetes mellitus and Type 2 diabetes.
Her study in Endocrinology focuses on Adipose tissue, Insulin, Metabolic syndrome, Weight loss and Lipid metabolism.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Genetics, Sex characteristics, Genome-wide association study and Gerontology in addition to Obesity.
Her study in Body mass index is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Twin study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Cohort study.
Her Insulin resistance study combines topics in areas such as Dyslipidemia, Mendelian Randomization Analysis and Weight change.
Her most cited work include:
- Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height (1614 citations)
- Meta-analysis identifies 13 new loci associated with waist-hip ratio and reveals sexual dimorphism in the genetic basis of fat distribution (747 citations)
- Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (554 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Obesity, Body mass index and Adipose tissue.
Her research on Internal medicine frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Diabetes mellitus.
Kirsi H. Pietiläinen integrates Endocrinology and Monozygotic twin in her research.
As a part of the same scientific family, Kirsi H. Pietiläinen mostly works in the field of Obesity, focusing on Young adult and, on occasion, Discordant Twin.
The various areas that Kirsi H. Pietiläinen examines in her Body mass index study include Twin study, Heritability and Physiology.
Within one scientific family, Kirsi H. Pietiläinen focuses on topics pertaining to Mitochondrial biogenesis under Adipose tissue, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Beta oxidation.
