Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

His primary areas of study are Surgery, Electromyography, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Anatomy and External anal sphincter. His study looks at the intersection of Surgery and topics like Internal medicine with Cardiology and Multiple sclerosis. His studies in Electromyography integrate themes in fields like Neurophysiology, Anesthesia, Upper motor neuron, Neural Conduction and Spinal cord.

He has included themes like C9orf72 and Neuroscience in his Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis study. His work in Anatomy addresses subjects such as Control subjects, which are connected to disciplines such as Muscle hypertrophy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pelvic floor, Levator ani, Fecal incontinence and Pudendal nerve.

His most cited work include:

  • El Escorial revisited : revised criteria for the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (3422 citations)
  • Non-invasive electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord and roots: basic principles and procedures for routine clinical application. Report of an IFCN committee (2506 citations)
  • INJURY TO INNERVATION OF PELVIC FLOOR SPHINCTER MUSCULATURE IN CHILDBIRTH (702 citations)

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

Michael Swash mainly investigates Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Anatomy, Neuroscience, Surgery and Pathology. His Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis research incorporates elements of Electromyography and Fasciculation. His Electromyography research integrates issues from Motor unit and Anesthesia.

His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spinal cord and External anal sphincter. His External anal sphincter research includes themes of Fecal incontinence and Pudendal nerve. Michael Swash works on Surgery which deals in particular with Pelvic floor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (40.99%)
  • Anatomy (20.71%)
  • Neuroscience (19.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (40.99%)
  • Internal medicine (18.16%)
  • Neuroscience (19.72%)

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

His main research concerns Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Internal medicine, Neuroscience, Fasciculation and Cardiology. His Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis study combines topics in areas such as Electromyography, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Surgery and Anatomy. The various areas that Michael Swash examines in his Surgery study include Disease and Pediatrics.

His Neuroscience study which covers Neuromuscular disease that intersects with Physical therapy. His Fasciculation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Benign fasciculation syndrome, Pathology, Reinnervation, Motor neuron and Ulnar nerve. He has researched Lower motor neuron in several fields, including Motor unit and Upper motor neuron.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Controversies and priorities in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (356 citations)
  • Controversies and priorities in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (356 citations)
  • Awaji criteria for the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis:a systematic review. (150 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

Michael Swash spends much of his time researching Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Neuroscience, Fasciculation, Internal medicine and Surgery. His work carried out in the field of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis brings together such families of science as Motor unit, Logistic regression and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. His Physical medicine and rehabilitation study also includes fields such as

  • Anatomy which intersects with area such as Rectum and External anal sphincter,
  • Progressive muscular atrophy, which have a strong connection to Primary Lateral Sclerosis.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Disease and SOD1 in addition to Neuroscience. His Fasciculation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Benign fasciculation syndrome, Reinnervation, Electromyography and Weakness. His Surgery study incorporates themes from Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, Magnetic resonance imaging and Radiology.
