Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His scientific interests lie mostly in COPD, Internal medicine, Lung, Obstructive lung disease and Physical therapy. MeiLan K. Han has included themes like Intensive care medicine, Spirometry, Asthma, Severity of illness and Pediatrics in his COPD study. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Surgery and Cardiology.

His Lung study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tomography, Radiology, Immunology and Hounsfield scale. MeiLan K. Han combines subjects such as Disease, Smoking cessation and Air trapping with his study of Obstructive lung disease. His studies in Physical therapy integrate themes in fields like Cross-sectional study, Older patients, Patient survey and Epidemiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Azithromycin for Prevention of Exacerbations of COPD (806 citations)
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease phenotypes: the future of COPD. (752 citations)
  • Analysis of the Lung Microbiome in the “Healthy” Smoker and in COPD (611 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in COPD, Internal medicine, Exacerbation, Lung and Spirometry. His COPD course of study focuses on Intensive care medicine and Disease. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology and Cardiology.

His studies deal with areas such as Computed tomography, Surgery, Airway and Airflow obstruction as well as Cardiology. His Exacerbation research includes elements of Proportional hazards model, Lung function and Hazard ratio. His research integrates issues of Radiology, Immunology and Pathology in his study of Lung.

He most often published in these fields:

  • COPD (68.70%)
  • Internal medicine (54.62%)
  • Exacerbation (20.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • COPD (68.70%)
  • Internal medicine (54.62%)
  • Exacerbation (20.17%)

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

His main research concerns COPD, Internal medicine, Exacerbation, Pulmonary disease and Spirometry. His COPD research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lung, Disease, Cohort and Intensive care medicine. As part of one scientific family, MeiLan K. Han deals mainly with the area of Intensive care medicine, narrowing it down to issues related to the Asthma, and often Rate ratio.

His Internal medicine research includes themes of Gastroenterology and Cardiology. As part of the same scientific family, MeiLan K. Han usually focuses on Exacerbation, concentrating on Emergency medicine and intersecting with Primary care. The various areas that MeiLan K. Han examines in his Spirometry study include Odds ratio, Logistic regression, Lung volumes, FEV1/FVC ratio and Small airways disease.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pharmacologic Management of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. An Official American Thoracic Society Clinical Practice Guideline (48 citations)
  • Reduction in All-Cause Mortality with Fluticasone Furoate/Umeclidinium/Vilanterol in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. (26 citations)
  • Association of Dysanapsis With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Among Older Adults. (20 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are COPD, Internal medicine, Exacerbation, Intensive care medicine and Pulmonary disease. His work deals with themes such as Clinical trial, All cause mortality, Disease and Spirometry, Asthma, which intersect with COPD. MeiLan K. Han regularly links together related areas like Gastroenterology in his Internal medicine studies.

His Exacerbation study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index, Regression analysis, Lung function and Health equity. His study focuses on the intersection of Intensive care medicine and fields such as Text mining with connections in the field of Respiration Disorders and Respiratory system. His Pulmonary disease study incorporates themes from Immune Cell Function, Obesity, Fat distribution, Airway wall and Bronchitis.
