Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Glucocorticoid, Fetus and Respiratory distress. The study incorporates disciplines such as Receptor and Pulmonary surfactant in addition to Endocrinology. Philip L. Ballard is involved in the study of Internal medicine that focuses on Hydrocortisone in particular.

His Glucocorticoid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology and Dexamethasone. His Fetus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hematocrit, Blood proteins, Lung, Cannula and Adrenergic. His Respiratory distress research incorporates themes from Respiratory disease, Incidence, Pediatrics and Gestation.

His most cited work include:

  • Inhaled nitric oxide in preterm infants undergoing mechanical ventilation. (395 citations)
  • Scientific basis and therapeutic regimens for use of antenatal glucocorticoids. (359 citations)
  • General presence of glucocorticoid receptors in mammalian tissues. (250 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Fetus, Lung and Pulmonary surfactant. His work deals with themes such as Bronchopulmonary dysplasia, Gestation and Respiratory distress, which intersect with Internal medicine. In general Endocrinology, his work in Glucocorticoid, Hormone and Triiodothyronine is often linked to Phosphatidylcholine linking many areas of study.

Philip L. Ballard has researched Fetus in several fields, including Ontogeny and Transcortin. His research investigates the connection with Lung and areas like Cell culture which intersect with concerns in Cell. The Pulmonary surfactant study combines topics in areas such as In vitro and Respiratory system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (57.81%)
  • Endocrinology (52.73%)
  • Fetus (26.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (16.41%)
  • Internal medicine (57.81%)
  • Lung (25.39%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Bronchopulmonary dysplasia, Internal medicine, Lung, Pediatrics and Nitric oxide. The concepts of his Bronchopulmonary dysplasia study are interwoven with issues in Anesthesia, Mechanical ventilation, Randomized controlled trial and Birth weight. His Internal medicine research includes elements of Gastroenterology and Endocrinology.

Philip L. Ballard focuses mostly in the field of Endocrinology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Pulmonary surfactant and, in certain cases, Pharmacology. His biological study deals with issues like Pathology, which deal with fields such as Cell adhesion molecule, Stem cell, Progenitor cell and Fetus. His Pediatrics research also works with subjects such as

  • Postmenstrual Age together with Survival rate,
  • Prospective cohort study together with Cohort study, Obstetrics, Pregnancy and Intrauterine growth restriction,
  • Wheeze that connect with fields like Gestation.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia and Perinatal Characteristics Predict 1-Year Respiratory Outcomes in Newborns Born at Extremely Low Gestational Age: A Prospective Cohort Study (81 citations)
  • Claudin-18 deficiency results in alveolar barrier dysfunction and impaired alveologenesis in mice. (58 citations)
  • A small-molecule smoothened agonist prevents glucocorticoid-induced neonatal cerebellar injury (56 citations)
