Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Disease

Stefan Pilz mostly deals with Internal medicine, Vitamin D and neurology, vitamin D deficiency, Endocrinology and Hazard ratio. As a part of the same scientific study, Stefan Pilz usually deals with the Internal medicine, concentrating on Surgery and frequently concerns with Sudden death. His Vitamin D and neurology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Gastroenterology, Randomized controlled trial, Meta-analysis, Disease and Confounding.

His work deals with themes such as Kidney disease, Survival rate, Calcitriol receptor, Vitamin and Pediatrics, which intersect with vitamin D deficiency. He focuses mostly in the field of Endocrinology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Secondary hyperparathyroidism and, in certain cases, Vitamin d supplementation. The various areas that Stefan Pilz examines in his Hazard ratio study include Adiponectin, Homocysteine and Sudden cardiac death.

His most cited work include:

  • Defining the role of common variation in the genomic and biological architecture of adult human height (1407 citations)
  • Independent Association of Low Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D Levels With All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality (1004 citations)
  • Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology (781 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vitamin D and neurology, vitamin D deficiency and Cardiology. His Internal medicine study deals with Gastroenterology intersecting with Cholecalciferol. His study on Endocrinology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Risk factor.

The Vitamin D and neurology study which covers Randomized controlled trial that intersects with Epidemiology. His work carried out in the field of vitamin D deficiency brings together such families of science as Body mass index, Disease, Physiology and Kidney disease. His work in the fields of Cardiology, such as Heart failure, Sudden cardiac death and Ejection fraction, intersects with other areas such as In patient.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (103.53%)
  • Endocrinology (65.90%)
  • Vitamin D and neurology (55.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (103.53%)
  • Vitamin D and neurology (55.30%)
  • Endocrinology (65.90%)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Vitamin D and neurology, Endocrinology, Randomized controlled trial and vitamin D deficiency. His Internal medicine research integrates issues from Gastroenterology and Cardiology. His research integrates issues of Placebo, Vitamin, Heart failure and Physiology in his study of Vitamin D and neurology.

Stefan Pilz combines subjects such as Parathyroid hormone and Outpatient clinic with his study of Endocrinology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Post-hoc analysis, Hormone and Cohort. His study looks at the intersection of vitamin D deficiency and topics like Rickets with Osteomalacia.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide Association Study in 79,366 European-ancestry Individuals Informs the Genetic Architecture of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels (142 citations)
  • Rationale and plan for vitamin D food fortification: A review and guidance paper (109 citations)
  • Vitamin D testing and treatment: a narrative review of current evidence. (66 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His scientific interests lie mostly in Vitamin D and neurology, Internal medicine, vitamin D deficiency, Gastroenterology and Vitamin. His Vitamin D and neurology research includes themes of Cohort study, Pediatrics, Physiology and Public health. As part of his studies on Internal medicine, Stefan Pilz often connects relevant areas like Endocrinology.

His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Apolipoprotein E and Outpatient clinic. His vitamin D deficiency research includes elements of Calcitriol, Pregnancy, Standard error, Hazard ratio and Food fortification. His study in Gastroenterology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Coronary artery disease, Quartile, Anemia, Blood pressure and Placebo.
