Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Robert Lauwerys mainly investigates Urine, Cadmium, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Creatinine. His Urine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Urinary system, Toxicity, Animal science and Pyrene. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mercury, Toxicology, Excretion and Environmental exposure.

His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Gastroenterology and Anesthesia. His Endocrinology course of study focuses on Biochemistry and Arsenite and Dose–response relationship. His research integrates issues of Percentile and Renal function in his study of Creatinine.

His most cited work include:

  • Renal effects of cadmium body burden of the general population (428 citations)
  • ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION BY CADMIUM AND MORTALITY FROM RENAL DISEASES (312 citations)
  • Industrial chemical exposure : guidelines for biological monitoring (281 citations)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Urine, Endocrinology, Cadmium and Excretion. In his research, Arsenic is intimately related to Biochemistry, which falls under the overarching field of Internal medicine. Robert Lauwerys has included themes like Urinary system, Chromatography, Toxicity, Creatinine and Physiology in his Urine study.

His Physiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Surgery and Immunology. Kidney, Proteinuria, Albumin, Nephrotoxicity and Albuminuria are subfields of Endocrinology in which his conducts study. Robert Lauwerys has researched Cadmium in several fields, including Environmental exposure, Environmental health, Toxicology, Mercury and Environmental chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (31.46%)
  • Urine (30.49%)
  • Endocrinology (28.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1993-2020)?

  • Toxicity (14.88%)
  • Internal medicine (31.46%)
  • Urine (30.49%)

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

His primary areas of study are Toxicity, Internal medicine, Urine, Endocrinology and Urinary system. The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology, Toxicology, Lymphocyte and Pathology in addition to Toxicity. His Internal medicine study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Nephropathy.

His studies deal with areas such as Pyrene, Carcinogen, Occupational medicine, Creatinine and Environmental chemistry as well as Urine. The various areas that Robert Lauwerys examines in his Urinary system study include Kidney, Nephrotoxicity, Physiology and Cadmium. His Cadmium study deals with Environmental exposure intersecting with Confounding and Cross-sectional study.

Between 1993 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Health risks associated with cobalt exposure--an overview. (166 citations)
  • Cadmium: exposure markers as predictors of nephrotoxic effects. (152 citations)
  • Influence of the route of administration and the chemical form (MnCl2, MnO2) on the absorption and cerebral distribution of manganese in rats. (144 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Robert Lauwerys spends much of his time researching Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Renal function, Urinary system and Urine. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Anesthesia and Endocrinology. His Urinary system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Kidney and Kidney disease.

The various areas that Robert Lauwerys examines in his Kidney study include Uric acid, Toxicity, Environmental exposure and Pathology. The Urine study which covers Creatinine that intersects with Cadmium pollution, Zinc and Serum zinc. Cystatin is closely connected to Renal physiology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Excretion.
