Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Immune system

His primary areas of investigation include Microbiology, Immunology, Neisseria meningitidis, Macrophage and Intensive care medicine. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Respiratory epithelium, Lipopolysaccharide, Monocyte, Proinflammatory cytokine and Antibody. His Immunology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Regulation of gene expression.

His Neisseria meningitidis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Meningitis, Antibiotics, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Gene. His Macrophage research incorporates themes from Phagocytosis, Apoptosis, Mutant, Nitric oxide and Innate immune system. His work deals with themes such as COPD, Guideline, Asthma and Pneumonia, which intersect with Intensive care medicine.

His most cited work include:

  • BTS guidelines for the management of community acquired pneumonia in adults: update 2009. (878 citations)
  • Guidelines for the management of adult lower respiratory tract infections ‐ Full version (531 citations)
  • Guidelines for the management of adult lower respiratory tract infections - Summary (340 citations)

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

Robert C. Read mainly focuses on Microbiology, Immunology, Neisseria meningitidis, Intensive care medicine and Virology. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Nitric oxide and Bacteria. Immunology is closely attributed to Meningococcal disease in his research.

His research integrates issues of Sepsis, Neisseria and Gene, Allele, Genotype in his study of Neisseria meningitidis. His Intensive care medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Meningitis, Respiratory disease, Guideline and Pneumonia. His Pneumonia study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Epidemiology and Pediatrics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (33.09%)
  • Immunology (35.97%)
  • Neisseria meningitidis (18.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Microbiology (33.09%)
  • Neisseria meningitidis (18.35%)
  • Intensive care medicine (12.23%)

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

Robert C. Read mainly investigates Microbiology, Neisseria meningitidis, Intensive care medicine, Immunology and Neisseria lactamica. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Staphylococcus aureus, Burkholderia thailandensis and Escherichia coli. His study in Neisseria meningitidis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gene and Virology.

Robert C. Read combines subjects such as Meningitis, MEDLINE, Pneumonia, Guideline and Public health with his study of Intensive care medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Carriage, Colonisation and Transmission in addition to Immunology. His Carriage study combines topics in areas such as Meningococcal vaccine, Immunogenicity and Vaccination.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • International ERS/ESICM/ESCMID/ALAT guidelines for the management of hospital-acquired pneumonia and ventilator-associated pneumonia: Guidelines for the management of hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP)/ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) of the European Respiratory Society (ERS), European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM), European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) and Asociación Latinoamericana del Tórax (ALAT) (289 citations)
  • ESCMID guideline: diagnosis and treatment of acute bacterial meningitis. (249 citations)
  • The UK joint specialist societies guideline on the diagnosis and management of acute meningitis and meningococcal sepsis in immunocompetent adults (98 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Immune system

His scientific interests lie mostly in Intensive care medicine, Neisseria meningitidis, Public health, Microbiology and Streptococcus pneumoniae. His research in Intensive care medicine intersects with topics in Clinical trial, MEDLINE and Pneumonia. His Pneumonia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clinical microbiology, Disease management and Epidemiology.

Robert C. Read interconnects Carriage, Guideline and Vaccination, Virology in the investigation of issues within Neisseria meningitidis. His Microbiology research includes elements of Genetically modified mouse, Transgene, Apoptosis, Reactive oxygen species and Nitric oxide. His biological study deals with issues like Pneumococcal disease, which deal with fields such as Immunology.
