His is involved in several facets of Endocrinology study, as is seen by his studies on Glucose uptake, Carbohydrate metabolism, Basal, Glucose clamp technique and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
His research in Insulin intersects with topics in Metabolic syndrome and Metabolism.
His Diabetes mellitus research incorporates themes from Kidney and Blood pressure.
His work focuses on many connections between Insulin resistance and other disciplines, such as Glycogen synthase, that overlap with his field of interest in Glucose transporter.
His most cited work include:
- Report of the expert committee on the diagnosis and classification of diabetes mellitus (9636 citations)
- Glucose clamp technique: a method for quantifying insulin secretion and resistance. (5728 citations)
- Insulin sensitivity indices obtained from oral glucose tolerance testing: comparison with the euglycemic insulin clamp. (4143 citations)

Ralph A. DeFronzo focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Insulin, Diabetes mellitus and Insulin resistance.
His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Type 2 diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Metformin, Placebo and Glycemic.
His research links Skeletal muscle with Insulin.
His studies link Body mass index with Diabetes mellitus.
His work deals with themes such as Adipose tissue, Metabolic syndrome and Prediabetes, which intersect with Insulin resistance.
He most often published in these fields:
- Internal medicine (91.88%)

- Internal medicine (91.88%)
- Endocrinology (84.33%)
- Type 2 diabetes (30.21%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Ralph A. DeFronzo mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes, Diabetes mellitus and Insulin.
His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Pioglitazone.
Ralph A. DeFronzo combines subjects such as Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Family medicine, Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor and Glycemic with his study of Type 2 diabetes.
While the research belongs to areas of Diabetes mellitus, he spends his time largely on the problem of Disease, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Incidence.
His Insulin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Adipose tissue and Hormone.
Many of his research projects under Insulin resistance are closely connected to Clamp with Clamp, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- CONSENSUS STATEMENT BY THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF CLINICAL ENDOCRINOLOGISTS AND AMERICAN COLLEGE OF ENDOCRINOLOGY ON THE COMPREHENSIVE TYPE 2 DIABETES MANAGEMENT ALGORITHM - 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. (302 citations)
- CONSENSUS STATEMENT BY THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF CLINICAL ENDOCRINOLOGISTS AND AMERICAN COLLEGE OF ENDOCRINOLOGY ON THE COMPREHENSIVE TYPE 2 DIABETES MANAGEMENT ALGORITHM - 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (289 citations)
- Renal, metabolic and cardiovascular considerations of SGLT2 inhibition (194 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Diabetes mellitus
- Gene
His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes and Insulin resistance.
As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Internal medicine, focusing on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and, on occasion, Fatty acid.
Ralph A. DeFronzo has researched Diabetes mellitus in several fields, including Family medicine and Intensive care medicine.
