Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Ophthalmology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Ophthalmology, Optometry, Refractive error, Epidemiology and Genome-wide association study. Her study looks at the relationship between Ophthalmology and topics such as Retinopathy, which overlap with Internal medicine. Seang-Mei Saw interconnects Cross-sectional study, Dioptre, Confidence interval, Astigmatism and Visual impairment in the investigation of issues within Optometry.

Her Refractive error research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Prevalence and Cohort study. She combines subjects such as Hip fracture, Osteoporosis, Young adult, Public health and Risk factor with her study of Epidemiology. Her Genome-wide association study study is focused on Genetics in general.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genome-Wide Association Study of Retinopathy in Individuals Without Diabetes (740 citations)
  • Myopia and associated pathological complications. (615 citations)
  • Worldwide prevalence and risk factors for myopia. (465 citations)

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

Ophthalmology, Refractive error, Optometry, Odds ratio and Cohort study are her primary areas of study. Her work is connected to Eye disease, Retinal, Dioptre, Glaucoma and Visual acuity, as a part of Ophthalmology. Her work in Refractive error tackles topics such as Genome-wide association study which are related to areas like Polymorphism.

Her research investigates the link between Optometry and topics such as Epidemiology that cross with problems in Public health. Her studies in Odds ratio integrate themes in fields like Cross-sectional study, Body mass index, Risk factor and Confidence interval. Her Cohort study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in El Niño, Pediatrics and Cohort.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ophthalmology (31.22%)
  • Refractive error (22.66%)
  • Optometry (20.13%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Ophthalmology (31.22%)
  • Pediatrics (14.42%)
  • Cohort study (14.42%)

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

Seang-Mei Saw mostly deals with Ophthalmology, Pediatrics, Cohort study, Cohort and Refractive error. Seang-Mei Saw frequently studies issues relating to Maculopathy and Ophthalmology. Seang-Mei Saw focuses mostly in the field of Pediatrics, narrowing it down to matters related to Confidence interval and, in some cases, Area under the curve.

Her work in Cohort study covers topics such as Odds ratio which are related to areas like Body mass index. Her Cohort research focuses on Pregnancy and how it relates to Diabetes mellitus and Physiology. Her Refractive error research includes themes of Optometry, Strabismus and Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Maternal and fetal genetic effects on birth weight and their relevance to cardio-metabolic risk factors (167 citations)
  • IMI - Interventions Myopia Institute: Interventions for Controlling Myopia Onset and Progression Report. (91 citations)
  • Genetic variants linked to myopic macular degeneration in persons with high myopia: CREAM Consortium. (71 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Diabetes mellitus

Seang-Mei Saw mainly focuses on Cohort study, Cohort, Pregnancy, Genome-wide association study and Pediatrics. Her research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Psychiatry, Immunology and Eating behavior in her study of Cohort study. Her work focuses on many connections between Cohort and other disciplines, such as Physiology, that overlap with her field of interest in Blood pressure.

Her research on Genetics and Single-nucleotide polymorphism is centered around Genome-wide association study. As a part of the same scientific study, Seang-Mei Saw usually deals with the Visual impairment, concentrating on Prevalence and frequently concerns with Refractive error. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Confidence interval, Optometry is strongly linked to Autorefractor.
