Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Virus

Her main research concerns Immunology, Internal medicine, Pneumonia, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Chlamydia. Her Immunology study incorporates themes from Respiratory tract infections and Myocardial infarction. She works mostly in the field of Myocardial infarction, limiting it down to topics relating to Seroconversion and, in certain cases, Chlamydophila pneumoniae and Antigen.

The various areas that she examines in her Internal medicine study include Gastroenterology, Pneumococcal vaccine and Surgery. Her Streptococcus pneumoniae research incorporates elements of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Vaccination. Her Chlamydia study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Inflammation and Chronic infection.

Her most cited work include:

  • Serological evidence of an association of a novel Chlamydia, TWAR, with chronic coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction. (1837 citations)
  • Serological evidence of an association of a novel Chlamydia, TWAR, with chronic coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction. (1837 citations)
  • ANTIGENIC SIMILARITIES BETWEEN BRAIN COMPONENTS AND BACTERIA CAUSING MENINGITIS: Implications for Vaccine Development and Pathogenesis (690 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Immunology, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Microbiology, Chlamydia and Antibody. Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Respiratory disease and Internal medicine, Pneumonia. The concepts of her Streptococcus pneumoniae study are interwoven with issues in Otitis, Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcaceae.

Her Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Microbiological culture, Bacteria and Virology. Maija Leinonen focuses mostly in the field of Chlamydia, narrowing it down to topics relating to Inflammation and, in certain cases, Chronic infection. The Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Immune system, Antigen and Vaccination.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (55.60%)
  • Streptococcus pneumoniae (31.66%)
  • Microbiology (30.12%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2006-2018)?

  • Immunology (55.60%)
  • Microbiology (30.12%)
  • Chlamydia (26.25%)

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

Maija Leinonen mainly focuses on Immunology, Microbiology, Chlamydia, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Internal medicine. Her specific area of interest is Immunology, where Maija Leinonen studies Immune system. Her work on Streptococcaceae as part of general Microbiology study is frequently connected to Rosmarinic acid, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Her research in Chlamydia intersects with topics in Inflammation, Coronary artery disease, Antibody and Acute coronary syndrome. In the field of Streptococcus pneumoniae, her study on Pneumococcal infections overlaps with subjects such as Xylitol. Her studies deal with areas such as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Antibiotics and Population study as well as Internal medicine.

Between 2006 and 2018, her most popular works were:

  • Cold temperature and low humidity are associated with increased occurrence of respiratory tract infections. (174 citations)
  • Risk of cervical cancer associated with Chlamydia trachomatis antibodies by histology, HPV type and HPV cofactors (117 citations)
  • Treatment of acute otitis media with probiotics in otitis-prone children—A double-blind, placebo-controlled randomised study (94 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Bacteria
  • Virus

Maija Leinonen mostly deals with Immunology, Internal medicine, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pneumococcal infections and Respiratory tract infections. The study incorporates disciplines such as Respiratory disease and Pharyngitis in addition to Immunology. Maija Leinonen interconnects Gastroenterology, Small for gestational age and Population study in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine.

Her Streptococcus pneumoniae research is under the purview of Microbiology. Her studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Microarray analysis techniques and Molecular biology. Her Pneumococcal infections research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Meningitis, Pediatrics, Incidence, Bacteremia and Blood culture.
