Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Diabetes mellitus

His main research concerns Physical therapy, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Risk factor and Diabetes mellitus. The concepts of his Physical therapy study are interwoven with issues in Cohort study, Randomized controlled trial, Confidence interval, Neck pain and Low back pain. His Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Gastroenterology and Cardiology.

His Risk factor research incorporates elements of Prospective cohort study, Metabolic syndrome and Type 2 diabetes. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Relative risk, Surgery and Insulin. Lex M. Bouter interconnects Systematic review and Psychometrics in the investigation of issues within Operations research.

His most cited work include:

  • Quality criteria were proposed for measurement properties of health status questionnaires (5030 citations)
  • Development of AMSTAR: a measurement tool to assess the methodological quality of systematic reviews (2665 citations)
  • Elevated C-reactive protein levels in overweight and obese adults. (1953 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Physical therapy, Internal medicine, Randomized controlled trial, Endocrinology and Diabetes mellitus. He studied Physical therapy and Low back pain that intersect with Back pain. He combines subjects such as Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology with his study of Internal medicine.

The various areas that Lex M. Bouter examines in his Randomized controlled trial study include Meta-analysis and Alternative medicine, Manual therapy, Neck pain. The Risk factor study combines topics in areas such as Prospective cohort study and Cohort study. He works on MEDLINE which deals in particular with Systematic review.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Physical therapy (36.20%)
  • Internal medicine (19.91%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (13.50%)

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

  • Research integrity (3.61%)
  • Systematic review (7.57%)
  • Citation (3.38%)

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

Lex M. Bouter mostly deals with Research integrity, Systematic review, Citation, Impact factor and MEDLINE. The study incorporates disciplines such as Patient-reported outcome, Delphi method, Content validity, Checklist and Medical physics in addition to Systematic review. His work carried out in the field of Content validity brings together such families of science as Item response theory and Applied psychology.

Lex M. Bouter interconnects Publishing, Public relations and Replication in the investigation of issues within MEDLINE. In his research, Clinical trial is intimately related to Confidence interval, which falls under the overarching field of Odds ratio. His Clinical trial research incorporates themes from Randomized controlled trial and Cohort study.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rating the methodological quality in systematic reviews of studies on measurement properties: a scoring system for the COSMIN checklist (1052 citations)
  • COSMIN guideline for systematic reviews of patient-reported outcome measures (472 citations)
  • COSMIN Risk of Bias checklist for systematic reviews of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (420 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

Lex M. Bouter spends much of his time researching Systematic review, Applied psychology, Publication bias, Scientific misconduct and Quality. Lex M. Bouter has researched Systematic review in several fields, including Patient-reported outcome, Delphi method, Content validity, Checklist and Medical physics. While the research belongs to areas of Medical physics, Lex M. Bouter spends his time largely on the problem of Comparative effectiveness research, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Clinical trial and Randomized controlled trial.

Family medicine, Traditional medicine, Alternative medicine and Bibliometrics is closely connected to Psychological intervention in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Applied psychology. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Publishing, focusing on MEDLINE and, on occasion, Meta-analysis. His Sciatica study deals with the bigger picture of Physical therapy.
