Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Gene

His primary areas of study are Immunology, Rheumatoid arthritis, Arthritis, Odds ratio and Risk factor. His research in Immunology intersects with topics in Genetics, Disease, Allele and Case-control study. When carried out as part of a general Rheumatoid arthritis research project, his work on Anti–citrullinated protein antibody is frequently linked to work in Citrullination, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His Arthritis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both SNP, PTPN22, Molecular genetics and Genome-wide association study. The subject of his Odds ratio research is within the realm of Internal medicine. His research integrates issues of Gerontology, Cohort study, Relative risk, Demography and Job strain in his study of Risk factor.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic risk and a primary role for cell-mediated immune mechanisms in multiple sclerosis (1970 citations)
  • A new model for an etiology of rheumatoid arthritis: smoking may trigger HLA-DR (shared epitope)-restricted immune reactions to autoantigens modified by citrullination. (1146 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study meta-analysis identifies seven new rheumatoid arthritis risk loci (1003 citations)

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

Lars Alfredsson focuses on Internal medicine, Rheumatoid arthritis, Immunology, Epidemiology and Odds ratio. His Rheumatoid arthritis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Connective tissue disease and Arthritis. His research investigates the link between Immunology and topics such as Allele that cross with problems in Genotype.

He has included themes like Physical therapy, Incidence, Public health and Environmental health in his Epidemiology study. In his study, Demography and Surgery is inextricably linked to Confidence interval, which falls within the broad field of Odds ratio. The study incorporates disciplines such as Relative risk and Job strain in addition to Risk factor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (40.94%)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (33.96%)
  • Immunology (31.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (40.94%)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (33.96%)
  • Multiple sclerosis (20.81%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Rheumatoid arthritis, Multiple sclerosis, Epidemiology and Disease. His is involved in several facets of Internal medicine study, as is seen by his studies on Odds ratio, Logistic regression, Body mass index and Risk factor. His Odds ratio research focuses on Confidence interval and how it connects with Incidence.

His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Relative risk, Cohort study and Job strain. The Rheumatoid arthritis study combines topics in areas such as Antibody, Case-control study and Rheumatology. His Multiple sclerosis research is within the category of Immunology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain (726 citations)
  • Genomic Relationships, Novel Loci, and Pleiotropic Mechanisms across Eight Psychiatric Disorders (242 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies eight risk loci and implicates metabo-psychiatric origins for anorexia nervosa (208 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Gene

Lars Alfredsson mostly deals with Internal medicine, Body mass index, Multiple sclerosis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Case-control study. Lars Alfredsson has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Endocrinology, Expanded Disability Status Scale and Oncology. Multiple sclerosis is a subfield of Immunology that he tackles.

His studies deal with areas such as Autoantibody, Incidence, Allele and Arthritis as well as Rheumatoid arthritis. His studies in Case-control study integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio, Logistic regression, Epidemiology, Gastroenterology and Psychiatry. His Odds ratio research includes elements of Young adult and Confidence interval.
