Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Immune system

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Immunology, Arthritis and Inflammation. His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Proinflammatory cytokine and Cytokine. The concepts of his Immunology study are interwoven with issues in Maladaptation, Disease and Bioinformatics.

As part of one scientific family, Rainer H. Straub deals mainly with the area of Arthritis, narrowing it down to issues related to the Autonomic nervous system, and often Vagus nerve. His Inflammation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Adrenergic receptor, Sensory nerve, Pathology, Neuropeptide and Peripheral nervous system. The Dehydroepiandrosterone and Adrenocorticotropic hormone research Rainer H. Straub does as part of his general Hormone study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Aromatase, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His most cited work include:

  • THE COMPLEX ROLE OF ESTROGENS IN INFLAMMATION (1071 citations)
  • Human hair follicles display a functional equivalent of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and synthesize cortisol. (394 citations)
  • Sex hormones influence on the immune system: basic and clinical aspects in autoimmunity: (322 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Immunology, Rheumatoid arthritis and Arthritis. His Hormone, Proinflammatory cytokine, Dehydroepiandrosterone, Sympathetic nervous system and Tumor necrosis factor alpha study are his primary interests in Internal medicine. His research in Endocrinology intersects with topics in Interleukin 6 and Cytokine.

His Immunology research includes elements of Receptor and Disease. His studies in Rheumatoid arthritis integrate themes in fields like Autoimmune disease, Circadian rhythm and Rheumatology. His Immune system study combines topics in areas such as Neuroscience and Endocrine system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (57.53%)
  • Endocrinology (48.46%)
  • Immunology (31.47%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (57.53%)
  • Endocrinology (48.46%)
  • Immunology (31.47%)

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

Rainer H. Straub spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Immunology, Arthritis and Inflammation. His Internal medicine research focuses on Mesenchymal stem cell and how it connects with Cell therapy. In general Endocrinology study, his work on Hormone, Stimulation and Adipose tissue often relates to the realm of Synovial fluid, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Immunology research incorporates elements of Disease and Lymph. His Arthritis research includes themes of Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Spleen, Tyrosine hydroxylase, Corticosterone and Sympathetic nervous system. His Inflammation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Autoimmunity, Bone marrow, Function and Insulin resistance.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The sympathetic nervous response in inflammation. (139 citations)
  • Role of peripheral nerve fibres in acute and chronic inflammation in arthritis (83 citations)
  • Chronic inflammatory systemic diseases An evolutionary trade-off between acutely beneficial but chronically harmful programs (82 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Immune system
  • Cancer

Rainer H. Straub mostly deals with Immunology, Inflammation, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Arthritis. His work deals with themes such as Hydrocortisone and Disease, which intersect with Immunology. Rainer H. Straub has included themes like Hormone, Endocrine system, Autoimmunity and Insulin resistance in his Inflammation study.

His research ties Mesenchymal stem cell and Internal medicine together. His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Chondrogenesis, Tibia and Endochondral ossification. Rainer H. Straub has researched Arthritis in several fields, including Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Receptor, Tyrosine hydroxylase, Pharmacology and Sympathetic nervous system.
