Stafford L. Lightman combines subjects such as Neuropeptide, Parvocellular cell and Ovariectomized rat with his study of Vasopressin.
His study on Glucocorticoid also encompasses disciplines like
- Hydrocortisone which connect with Depression,
- Dexamethasone and related Adrenalectomy.
His most cited work include:
- The HPA axis in major depression: classical theories and new developments (1168 citations)
- Central oxytocin administration reduces stress-induced corticosterone release and anxiety behavior in rats. (560 citations)
- Chronic stress in elderly carers of dementia patients and antibody response to influenza vaccination. (409 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vasopressin, Glucocorticoid and Corticosterone.
His research on Internal medicine frequently connects to adjacent areas such as In situ hybridization.
Many of his studies on Endocrinology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Neuropeptide.
His research in Vasopressin intersects with topics in Arginine and Peptide hormone.
His Glucocorticoid research includes elements of Hydrocortisone and Dexamethasone.
His Corticosterone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Blood sampling, Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and Adrenocorticotropic hormone.
He most often published in these fields:
- Internal medicine (75.79%)
- Endocrinology (70.88%)

- Endocrinology (70.88%)
- Glucocorticoid (14.50%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Stafford L. Lightman focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Glucocorticoid, Ultradian rhythm and Circadian rhythm.
His work on Internal medicine deals in particular with Adrenal cortex, Hydrocortisone, Hypothalamus, Amygdala and Kisspeptin.
His Hormone, Adrenal gland, Pulsatile flow, Corticosterone and Basal study are his primary interests in Endocrinology.
His Adrenal gland research incorporates elements of Inflammation, Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, Immune system and Adrenocorticotropic hormone.
Stafford L. Lightman has included themes like Glucocorticoid secretion, Regulation of gene expression, Gene and Homeostasis in his Glucocorticoid study.
His Ultradian rhythm study combines topics in areas such as Adrenal steroid and Cortisol secretion.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The effects of improving sleep on mental health (OASIS): a randomised controlled trial with mediation analysis (197 citations)
- The Functional and Clinical Significance of the 24-Hour Rhythm of Circulating Glucocorticoids (175 citations)
- HPA Axis‐Rhythms (144 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Gene
- Endocrinology
Stafford L. Lightman mainly investigates Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Ultradian rhythm, Glucocorticoid and Neuroscience.
His study in Endocrinology concentrates on Circadian rhythm, Hormone, Adrenal gland, Pulsatile flow and Adrenocorticotropic hormone.
His research related to Basal, Kisspeptin, Estrous cycle, Inflammation and Amygdala might be considered part of Internal medicine.
His Ultradian rhythm study incorporates themes from Working memory, Attentional bias, Anterior pituitary and Stimulation.
His studies deal with areas such as Hippocampal formation, Glucocorticoid secretion, Adrenal cortex and Hippocampus as well as Glucocorticoid.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phenotype and Psychosis.
