Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Dermatology, Surgery, Disease, Immunology and Pathology. His Oral lichen planus study in the realm of Dermatology interacts with subjects such as Placebo-controlled study. Stephen Porter interconnects Internal medicine, Epidemiology, Osteonecrosis of the jaw and Intensive care medicine in the investigation of issues within Surgery.

He combines subjects such as Developed country, Melkersson–Rosenthal syndrome, Dental anomalies and Syphilis with his study of Disease. The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Stomatitis and Behcet's disease. His work carried out in the field of Pathology brings together such families of science as Cancer, Cytoplasm and Early detection.

His most cited work include:

  • Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (287 citations)
  • An update of the etiology and management of xerostomia (266 citations)
  • Number VI Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (259 citations)

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

Stephen Porter focuses on Dermatology, Pathology, Immunology, Internal medicine and Disease. His Dermatology research incorporates elements of Adverse effect, Surgery, Etiology and Oral medicine. His work in Immunology addresses issues such as Virology, which are connected to fields such as Kaposi's sarcoma and Polymerase chain reaction.

Many of his studies on Internal medicine apply to Gastroenterology as well. Stephen Porter works mostly in the field of Disease, limiting it down to topics relating to Dentistry and, in certain cases, Saliva, as a part of the same area of interest. Stephen Porter has researched Oral lichen planus in several fields, including Visual analogue scale, Oral mucosa and Tacrolimus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dermatology (20.00%)
  • Pathology (16.39%)
  • Immunology (16.39%)

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

  • Internal medicine (14.72%)
  • Oral lichen planus (14.17%)
  • Quality of life (4.17%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Oral lichen planus, Quality of life, Physical therapy and Dermatology. When carried out as part of a general Internal medicine research project, his work on Adverse effect and Meta-analysis is frequently linked to work in In patient, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His study looks at the relationship between Oral lichen planus and fields such as Oral mucosa, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Immunology study frequently links to other fields, such as Pathology. Stephen Porter has included themes like Oral health and Clinical trial in his Quality of life study. His Dermatology research integrates issues from Sjogren s and Oral medicine.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Intermingled Klebsiella pneumoniae Populations Between Retail Meats and Human Urinary Tract Infections (70 citations)
  • Up to a quarter of patients with osteonecrosis of the jaw associated with antiresorptive agents remain undiagnosed. (61 citations)
  • Time to onset of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws: a multicentre retrospective cohort study. (45 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Oral lichen planus, Osteonecrosis of the jaw, Dentistry and Adverse effect. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Distress and Anxiety. His Oral lichen planus study is concerned with the field of Dermatology as a whole.

His Dermatology study combines topics in areas such as Paraneoplastic pemphigus, Discoid lupus erythematosus and Antigen. The concepts of his Osteonecrosis of the jaw study are interwoven with issues in Antiangiogenic therapy, Carcinoma and Disease. His research integrates issues of Meta-analysis, Placebo, Acupuncture, Risk factor and Dental extraction in his study of Adverse effect.
