What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Cancer
Immunology, Virology, Internal medicine, Hepatitis C virus and Hepatitis B virus are his primary areas of study.
His works in Hepatitis C, Interferon, Hepatitis, Titer and Antibody are all subjects of inquiry into Immunology.
His work on Autoimmune liver disease as part of general Hepatitis research is often related to Anti-smooth muscle antibody, thus linking different fields of science.
Shinichi Kakumu works in the field of Virology, focusing on Virus in particular.
His study explores the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Gastroenterology that cross with problems in Interferon alfa and Carcinoma.
His study focuses on the intersection of Hepatitis C virus and fields such as Liver disease with connections in the field of Interleukin and Lymphocyte.
His most cited work include:
- International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group Report: review of criteria for diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (2162 citations)
- Detection of hepatitis C virus by polymerase chain reaction and response to interferon‐α therapy: Relationship to genotypes of hepatitis C virus (669 citations)
- Risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma and its incidence after interferon treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis C (437 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Shinichi Kakumu spends much of his time researching Immunology, Internal medicine, Virology, Gastroenterology and Hepatitis.
His Immunology research includes themes of Chronic liver disease and Peripheral blood mononuclear cell.
His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Endocrinology and Ribavirin.
His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hypervariable region and Genotype.
His work focuses on many connections between Gastroenterology and other disciplines, such as Chronic hepatitis, that overlap with his field of interest in Combination therapy.
Shinichi Kakumu has researched Hepatitis in several fields, including Viral hepatitis, Liver disease and Interferon gamma.
He most often published in these fields:
- Immunology (43.57%)
- Internal medicine (38.17%)
- Virology (24.90%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2009)?
- Internal medicine (38.17%)
- Gastroenterology (21.16%)
- Immunology (43.57%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Shinichi Kakumu focuses on Internal medicine, Gastroenterology, Immunology, Hepatocellular carcinoma and Interferon.
His research investigates the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Drug that cross with problems in Oncology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Chronic hepatitis, Adverse effect, Combination therapy and Fatty liver in addition to Gastroenterology.
His Chronic hepatitis study incorporates themes from Cirrhosis and Hepatitis C.
Shinichi Kakumu regularly ties together related areas like Liver biopsy in his Immunology studies.
His Hepatitis B virus study is concerned with Virology in general.
Between 2004 and 2009, his most popular works were:
- Influence of genotypes and precore mutations on fulminant or chronic outcome of acute hepatitis B virus infection. (195 citations)
- Differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and focal pancreatitis by using EUS-guided FNA. (111 citations)
- Distribution of Hepatitis B Virus Genotypes among Patients with Chronic Infection in Japan Shifting toward an Increase of Genotype A (99 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Cancer
Shinichi Kakumu mainly investigates Immunology, Gastroenterology, Internal medicine, Virus and Virology.
His Interferon, Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Natural killer T cell, Hepatitis C virus and TLR4 study are his primary interests in Immunology.
His work deals with themes such as Pegylated interferon, Chronic hepatitis, Ribavirin, Adverse effect and Combination therapy, which intersect with Gastroenterology.
His research integrates issues of Hepatitis B and Liver biopsy in his study of Virus.
In his research on the topic of Virology, Hepatitis, Fulminant and Fulminant hepatitis is strongly related with Genotype.
Shinichi Kakumu works mostly in the field of Hepatitis, limiting it down to topics relating to Viral replication and, in certain cases, Viral disease, as a part of the same area of interest.
