Richard Peto focuses on Internal medicine, Surgery, Myocardial infarction, Breast cancer and Stroke. His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Oncology and Cardiology. Richard Peto interconnects Rate ratio, Incidence and Cause of death in the investigation of issues within Surgery.
His Myocardial infarction research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diabetes mellitus, Simvastatin, Placebo and Statin. His studies in Breast cancer integrate themes in fields like Relative risk, Gynecology, Radiation therapy and Chemotherapy. His Stroke research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Aspirin, Physical therapy and Cholesterol.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Prospective cohort study, Surgery, Demography and Oncology. Blood pressure is closely connected to Cardiology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Internal medicine. Richard Peto has researched Prospective cohort study in several fields, including Body mass index, Epidemiology, Diabetes mellitus, Relative risk and Proportional hazards model.
Many of his studies on Surgery involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Clinical trial. His research integrates issues of Cause of death, Gerontology and China in his study of Demography. His Oncology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Tamoxifen, Chemotherapy and Early breast cancer.
Richard Peto mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Prospective cohort study, Demography, Proportional hazards model and Diabetes mellitus. As part of his studies on Internal medicine, Richard Peto often connects relevant subjects like Oncology. His Prospective cohort study study combines topics in areas such as Incidence, Relative risk, Mortality rate, Hazard ratio and Pediatrics.
His research on Demography also deals with topics like
Internal medicine, Prospective cohort study, Demography, Stroke and Gerontology are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Surgery and Oncology. Richard Peto combines subjects such as Smoking cessation, Relative risk, Mortality rate, Cause of death and Proportional hazards model with his study of Prospective cohort study.
His Demography research incorporates elements of Substance abuse and Hazard ratio. His Stroke study incorporates themes from Diabetes mellitus, Cardiovascular disease in China, Family medicine, Vascular disease and Myocardial infarction. His study in Breast cancer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Radiation therapy and Disease.
