Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Cell biology, Osteoclast and Physical therapy. In his papers, he integrates diverse fields, such as Internal medicine and Impaired glucose tolerance. His Endocrinology research integrates issues from Bone healing, Anatomy and Osteoblast.

His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like RUNX2, Cartilage metabolism, Cellular differentiation and Chondrocyte, Cartilage. Kozo Nakamura interconnects Osteoprotegerin, Protein kinase A, RANKL and Signal transduction, Kinase activity in the investigation of issues within Osteoclast. His work deals with themes such as Osteoarthritis, Cohort study, Osteoporosis, Cohort and Low back pain, which intersect with Physical therapy.

His most cited work include:

  • T-cell-mediated regulation of osteoclastogenesis by signalling cross-talk between RANKL and IFN-gamma. (1083 citations)
  • PPAR γ insufficiency enhances osteogenesis through osteoblast formation from bone marrow progenitors (715 citations)
  • RANKL maintains bone homeostasis through c-Fos-dependent induction of interferon - β (589 citations)

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

Surgery, Internal medicine, Anatomy, Cell biology and Endocrinology are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Surgery study are interwoven with issues in Orthodontics and Myelopathy, Spinal cord. His research brings together the fields of Osteoarthritis and Internal medicine.

His Osteoarthritis study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology, Cohort study and Cohort. In most of his Cell biology studies, his work intersects topics such as Cellular differentiation. His research in Endocrinology is mostly concerned with Bone remodeling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surgery (18.67%)
  • Internal medicine (18.67%)
  • Anatomy (11.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (18.67%)
  • Physical therapy (9.27%)
  • Osteoarthritis (9.15%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Physical therapy, Osteoarthritis, Surgery and Osteoporosis. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Orthopedic surgery and Endocrinology. Kozo Nakamura has included themes like Incidence, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Cohort study, Knee pain and Cohort in his Physical therapy study.

His Osteoarthritis research incorporates elements of Epidemiology, Cartilage and Radiography. His Surgery research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phosphorylcholine, Radiology and Myelopathy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sarcopenia and Risk factor.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Accumulation of metabolic risk factors such as overweight, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and impaired glucose tolerance raises the risk of occurrence and progression of knee osteoarthritis: a 3-year follow-up of the ROAD study. (194 citations)
  • Prevalence and distribution of intervertebral disc degeneration over the entire spine in a population-based cohort: the Wakayama Spine Study (170 citations)
  • The concept and treatment of locomotive syndrome: its acceptance and spread in Japan. (122 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Gene

Kozo Nakamura focuses on Internal medicine, Physical therapy, Surgery, Cohort and Osteoarthritis. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Endocrinology, Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis and Intervertebral disc. He combines subjects such as Osteoclast, Thoracic aorta and In vivo with his study of Endocrinology.

His Physical therapy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Incidence, Cohort study, Knee pain, Osteoporosis and Risk factor. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio, Magnetic resonance imaging and Myelopathy, Laminoplasty in addition to Surgery. His research investigates the connection between Osteoarthritis and topics such as Cartilage that intersect with issues in CEBPB, Inducer and RUNX2.
