Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Surgery

Her primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Internal medicine, Rheumatoid arthritis, Cytokine and Lupus erythematosus. Her research in Immunology intersects with topics in Odds ratio, IRF5, Allele frequency, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Haplotype. Her work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Surgery.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Arthritis, Cohort study, Immunopathology and Rheumatology in addition to Rheumatoid arthritis. Her Rheumatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Physical therapy, Activities of daily living and Health assessment. The concepts of her Cytokine study are interwoven with issues in Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Myocyte, CD40 and Monocyte.

Her most cited work include:

  • Comparison of Disease Activity Score (DAS)28- erythrocyte sedimentation rate and DAS28- C-reactive protein threshold values (282 citations)
  • Validation of a Japanese version of the Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire in 3,763 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (156 citations)
  • Endogenous IL-1α from systemic sclerosis fibroblasts induces IL-6 and PDGF-A (145 citations)

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

Masako Hara mainly investigates Internal medicine, Immunology, Rheumatoid arthritis, Rheumatology and Gastroenterology. Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Endocrinology and Surgery. She regularly ties together related areas like Single-nucleotide polymorphism in her Immunology studies.

Masako Hara has included themes like Odds ratio, Arthritis, Immunopathology, Genotype and Physical therapy in her Rheumatoid arthritis study. Her studies in Rheumatology integrate themes in fields like Methotrexate, Incidence, Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, Central nervous system and Severity of illness. Her Gastroenterology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Polymyositis, Dermatomyositis, Pathology and Interstitial lung disease.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (52.63%)
  • Immunology (40.67%)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (31.10%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2007-2015)?

  • Immunology (40.67%)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (31.10%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Immunology, Rheumatoid arthritis, Rheumatology and Gastroenterology. She regularly links together related areas like Surgery in her Internal medicine studies. Her Immunology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Allele.

Her Rheumatoid arthritis study incorporates themes from Orthopedic surgery, Physical therapy, Methotrexate and Arthritis. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biopsy, Central nervous system and Immunopathology. Her Immunopathology study combines topics in areas such as Autoimmune disease and Connective tissue disease.

Between 2007 and 2015, her most popular works were:

  • Excessive Production of IFN-γ in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Its Contribution to Induction of B Lymphocyte Stimulator/B Cell-Activating Factor/TNF Ligand Superfamily-13B (144 citations)
  • Association of STAT4 With Susceptibility to Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in the Japanese Population (141 citations)
  • Autostimulatory effects of IL-6 on excessive B cell differentiation in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: analysis of IL-6 production and IL-6R expression. (114 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Surgery

Her main research concerns Immunology, Internal medicine, Lupus erythematosus, Rheumatoid arthritis and Rheumatology. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Immunology, Interleukin and Interferon is strongly linked to IRF5. Her Internal medicine research includes elements of Gastroenterology and Surgery.

Her studies deal with areas such as Odds ratio, Interferon gamma, Cytokine and CD3, CD8 as well as Lupus erythematosus. Her Rheumatoid arthritis research includes themes of Physical therapy, Case-control study and Cancer research. Her work deals with themes such as Incidence and Cohort, which intersect with Rheumatology.
