What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Gene
- Alzheimer's disease
- Internal medicine
Nigel J. Cairns focuses on Alzheimer's disease, Pathology, Dementia, Disease and Frontotemporal lobar degeneration.
The concepts of his Alzheimer's disease study are interwoven with issues in Central nervous system disease and Degenerative disease.
His Pathology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Gene mutation.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Cerebral cortex, Cancer research and Pathological in addition to Dementia.
His work deals with themes such as Biomarker, Genetics, Neuroscience and Gerontology, which intersect with Disease.
His Frontotemporal lobar degeneration research includes elements of Neuropathology, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Ubiquitin.
His most cited work include:
- Clinical and Biomarker Changes in Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer’s Disease (2062 citations)
- National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association Guidelines for the Neuropathologic Assessment of Alzheimer's Disease (1523 citations)
- Common variants at MS4A4/MS4A6E , CD2AP , CD33 and EPHA1 are associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (1385 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Nigel J. Cairns spends much of his time researching Pathology, Alzheimer's disease, Disease, Dementia and Neuroscience.
Cerebral cortex is closely connected to Hippocampus in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Pathology.
The Alzheimer's disease study combines topics in areas such as Central nervous system disease and Degenerative disease.
His Disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomarker and Neuroimaging.
In his study, Cognitive decline is strongly linked to Cognition, which falls under the umbrella field of Dementia.
The various areas that Nigel J. Cairns examines in his Frontotemporal lobar degeneration study include Mutation, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Cytoplasmic inclusion.
He most often published in these fields:
- Pathology (45.02%)
- Alzheimer's disease (33.41%)
- Disease (23.70%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Pathology (45.02%)
- Alzheimer's disease (33.41%)
- Disease (23.70%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Pathology, Alzheimer's disease, Disease, Dementia and Internal medicine are his primary areas of study.
His research in the fields of Tauopathy, Senile plaques and Cerebrospinal fluid overlaps with other disciplines such as Chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
His Alzheimer's disease research incorporates elements of Neuropathology, Magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroimaging and Cognitive decline.
His research in Disease focuses on subjects like Neuroscience, which are connected to Hyperintensity, Neuroinflammation and Atrophy.
His work on Lewy body as part of general Dementia research is frequently linked to Hippocampal sclerosis, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology, Allele and Oncology.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Early role of vascular dysregulation on late-onset Alzheimer’s disease based on multifactorial data-driven analysis (450 citations)
- The first NINDS/NIBIB consensus meeting to define neuropathological criteria for the diagnosis of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (447 citations)
- Tau and Aβ imaging, CSF measures, and cognition in Alzheimer’s disease (376 citations)
