Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

Roberta B. Ness mostly deals with Internal medicine, Pregnancy, Gynecology, Ovarian cancer and Obstetrics. In her work, Soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 and Gestational age is strongly intertwined with Endocrinology, which is a subfield of Internal medicine. Her Pregnancy research integrates issues from Surgery, Nested case-control study and Epidemiology.

As a member of one scientific family, Roberta B. Ness mostly works in the field of Gynecology, focusing on Odds ratio and, on occasion, Logistic regression. The study incorporates disciplines such as Endometriosis, Serous fluid, Oncology and Case-control study in addition to Ovarian cancer. Her Obstetrics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Blood pressure, Metabolic syndrome, Gestational hypertension, Hypertension in Pregnancy and Risk factor.

Her most cited work include:

  • Common Genetic Variation In Cellular Transport Genes and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) Risk (859 citations)
  • Association between endometriosis and risk of histological subtypes of ovarian cancer: a pooled analysis of case-control studies. (603 citations)
  • Possible Role of Ovarian Epithelial Inflammation in Ovarian Cancer (493 citations)

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

Roberta B. Ness mostly deals with Internal medicine, Ovarian cancer, Gynecology, Obstetrics and Pregnancy. She has included themes like Endocrinology and Oncology in her Internal medicine study. Her Ovarian cancer research includes themes of Odds ratio, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genome-wide association study and Serous fluid.

The various areas that Roberta B. Ness examines in her Odds ratio study include Logistic regression, Case-control study, Confidence interval, Family history and Confounding. Her work on Pelvic inflammatory disease and Bacterial vaginosis as part of her general Gynecology study is frequently connected to Sexually transmitted disease and Tubal ligation, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her work carried out in the field of Obstetrics brings together such families of science as Small for gestational age, Blood pressure, Disease and Premature birth.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (38.00%)
  • Ovarian cancer (26.51%)
  • Gynecology (23.38%)

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

  • Ovarian cancer (26.51%)
  • Internal medicine (38.00%)
  • Oncology (17.95%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Ovarian cancer, Internal medicine, Oncology, Odds ratio and Genome-wide association study. Her work deals with themes such as Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Serous fluid, Gynecology and Carcinoma, which intersect with Ovarian cancer. Her study of Pelvic inflammatory disease is a part of Gynecology.

Her Internal medicine study frequently involves adjacent topics like Endocrinology. Roberta B. Ness has researched Oncology in several fields, including Cancer, Breast cancer, Epidemiology, Proportional hazards model and Hazard ratio. Her studies deal with areas such as Confounding, Case-control study, Epidemiology of cancer, Obstetrics and Polycystic ovary as well as Odds ratio.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Common Genetic Variation In Cellular Transport Genes and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) Risk (859 citations)
  • Identification of 12 new susceptibility loci for different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (179 citations)
  • Dose-Response Association of CD8(+) Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes and Survival Time in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (148 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Cancer

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ovarian cancer, Internal medicine, Oncology, Serous fluid and Genome-wide association study. In her study, Clear cell carcinoma is inextricably linked to Endometriosis, which falls within the broad field of Ovarian cancer. Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology and Gynecology.

Her work in the fields of Gynecology, such as Pelvic inflammatory disease, overlaps with other areas such as Ureaplasma urealyticum. The various areas that Roberta B. Ness examines in her Oncology study include Odds ratio, Breast cancer and Prostate cancer. Many of her studies on Odds ratio involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Case-control study.
