Nicolaas E. P. Deutz focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Amino acid, Anabolism and Metabolism. Nicolaas E. P. Deutz combines subjects such as Gastroenterology, Protein digestion and Protein catabolism with his study of Internal medicine. He works mostly in the field of Protein catabolism, limiting it down to topics relating to Glutamine and, in certain cases, Citrulline.

Nicolaas E. P. Deutz focuses mostly in the field of Endocrinology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phenylalanine and, in certain cases, Tyrosine. His Anabolism research includes elements of Cancer, Casein, Pharmacology and Enteral administration. His Metabolism research includes themes of Kidney, Arginine and Ileum.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Implications of low muscle mass across the continuum of care: a narrative review (63 citations)
  • The Underappreciated Role of Low Muscle Mass in the Management of Malnutrition. (48 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Endocrinology

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Sepsis, Malnutrition and Muscle mass. His research on Internal medicine often connects related areas such as Repeated measures design. His study ties his expertise on Protein catabolism together with the subject of Endocrinology.

His Protein catabolism study combines topics in areas such as Leucine and Skeletal muscle. His work deals with themes such as Arginine, Pharmacology, Microbiology and Gastric tonometry, which intersect with Sepsis. His study in Malnutrition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Risk of mortality, Weight change, Meta-analysis, Intensive care medicine and Placebo.
