Overview

Leif Wide is affiliated with Uppsala University in Sweden and has contributed to research primarily in the field of Medicine, with a focus on reproductive medicine and endocrinology. Their work encompasses several subfields including reproductive medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism, endocrine and autonomic systems, genetics, and agronomy and crop science.

The researcher's main topics of study include growth hormone and insulin-like growth factors, ovarian function and disorders, hypothalamic control of reproductive hormones, thyroid disorders and treatments, neuroscience of respiration and sleep, estrogen and related hormone effects, and reproductive physiology in livestock.

Recent papers authored or coauthored by Leif Wide demonstrate a focus on hormone glycoforms and endocrinological regulation in women. These papers include:

  • Determination of Half-lives of Circulating FSH and LH Glycoforms in Women During GnRH Receptor Blockade (2022), published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism
  • Thyrotropin N-glycosylation and Glycan Composition in Severe Primary Hypothyroidism (2021), published in Journal of the Endocrine Society
  • Low- and Fully N-Glycosylated Gonadotropins Circulating in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (2021), published in Journal of the Endocrine Society

Leif Wide has also been involved in research related to the effects of progestins of the levonorgestrel family on circulating gonadotropin glycoforms in women, as seen in another publication within the Journal of the Endocrine Society.

Frequent coauthors collaborating with Leif Wide include Karin Eriksson, Patrick M. Sluss, Janet E. Hall, Tord Naessén, and Inger Sundström Poromaa.

Common venues for their publications are the Journal of the Endocrine Society, which has hosted three of their papers, and The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism with one publication.
