Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

Pier Alberto Bertazzi mostly deals with Internal medicine, Cancer, DNA methylation, Environmental exposure and Epidemiology. The study of Internal medicine is intertwined with the study of Endocrinology in a number of ways. His Cancer research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chloracne, Local population, Etiology, Pathology and Reference population.

His study in DNA methylation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Methylation, Epigenetics and Washout. His Environmental exposure study combines topics in areas such as Surgery, DNA hypomethylation, Toxicology, Blood pressure and Breast cancer. The concepts of his Epidemiology study are interwoven with issues in Mortality rate, Cause of death, Rate ratio, Confidence interval and Cohort.

His most cited work include:

  • Changes in DNA Methylation Patterns in Subjects Exposed to Low-Dose Benzene (493 citations)
  • Gene expression signature of cigarette smoking and its role in lung adenocarcinoma development and survival. (486 citations)
  • A Genome-wide Association Study of Lung Cancer Identifies a Region of Chromosome 5p15 Associated with Risk for Adenocarcinoma. (464 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Lung cancer, Environmental health, Cancer and Epidemiology. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology, Oncology and Pathology as well as Internal medicine. Pier Alberto Bertazzi has researched Lung cancer in several fields, including Odds ratio, Genetics, Demography, Case-control study and Adenocarcinoma.

Pier Alberto Bertazzi works mostly in the field of Environmental health, limiting it down to concerns involving Toxicology and, occasionally, Carcinogen. Pier Alberto Bertazzi studies Cancer, focusing on Carcinogenesis in particular. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mortality rate, Surgery, Physiology and Cohort.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (27.21%)
  • Lung cancer (22.20%)
  • Environmental health (18.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Internal medicine (27.21%)
  • Lung cancer (22.20%)
  • Environmental health (18.62%)

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

Pier Alberto Bertazzi spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Lung cancer, Environmental health, Case-control study and Public health. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Endocrinology, Surgery, Oncology, Pathology and microRNA. His Lung cancer study incorporates themes from Genetics, Cancer, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Epidemiology.

His work in the fields of Environmental health, such as Environmental exposure, overlaps with other areas such as Term. His Case-control study research includes themes of Odds ratio, Logistic regression, Gerontology, Diabetes mellitus and Colorectal cancer. His studies deal with areas such as Statistical significance and Confidence interval as well as Public health.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Epigenome-wide association study of body mass index, and the adverse outcomes of adiposity. (441 citations)
  • Epigenome-wide association of DNA methylation markers in peripheral blood from Indian Asians and Europeans with incident type 2 diabetes: a nested case-control study. (248 citations)
  • Large-scale association analysis identifies new lung cancer susceptibility loci and heterogeneity in genetic susceptibility across histological subtypes (192 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

His main research concerns Pathology, Internal medicine, Environmental health, Lung cancer and Oncology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cancer research, Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Environmental exposure. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Multiple sclerosis and Endocrinology.

His work in Environmental health covers topics such as Public health which are related to areas like Confidence interval, Air pollution exposure and Meteorology. His study in Lung cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mortality rate, Case-control study, Quantitative trait locus, Expression quantitative trait loci and Genetic association. His Oncology study incorporates themes from Absolute risk reduction, Metastasis and Adenocarcinoma.
