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

His main research concerns Pregnancy, Obstetrics, Gestation, Internal medicine and Gestational age. His Pregnancy study incorporates themes from Odds ratio, Pharmacokinetics, Gynecology, Prospective cohort study and Pediatrics. His Gynecology study combines topics in areas such as Young adult, Vaginal delivery and Cesarean delivery.

His work carried out in the field of Obstetrics brings together such families of science as Birth weight, Diabetes mellitus, Randomized controlled trial, Gestational diabetes and Cohort. The concepts of his Gestation study are interwoven with issues in Body mass index, Fetus and Bacterial vaginosis. He focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to matters related to Endocrinology and, in some cases, Receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pregnancy (51.27%)
  • Obstetrics (49.86%)

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

Steve N. Caritis mostly deals with Obstetrics, Pregnancy, Gestation, Gestational age and Internal medicine. His work deals with themes such as Neonatal outcomes, Gestational diabetes, Retrospective cohort study and Cohort, which intersect with Obstetrics. His Pregnancy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Odds ratio, Pharmacokinetics, Vomiting, Gynecology and Nausea.

He interconnects Diabetes mellitus, Intraventricular hemorrhage and Respiratory distress in the investigation of issues within Gestation. His Gestational age research incorporates elements of Birth weight, Randomized controlled trial, Pediatrics and Cerebral palsy. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Placebo, Endocrinology and Preeclampsia.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Preterm neonatal morbidity and mortality by gestational age: A contemporary cohort (160 citations)
  • Safety and pharmacokinetics of pravastatin used for the prevention of preeclampsia in high-risk pregnant women: a pilot randomized controlled trial (122 citations)
  • A Randomized Trial of Intrapartum Fetal ECG ST-Segment Analysis (66 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Pregnancy
  • Fetus

His primary areas of investigation include Pregnancy, Obstetrics, Gestation, Gestational age and Buprenorphine. The Pregnancy study combines topics in areas such as Young adult, Pharmacokinetics, Gynecology and Randomized controlled trial. As part of the same scientific family, Steve N. Caritis usually focuses on Gynecology, concentrating on Small for gestational age and intersecting with Intrauterine growth restriction.

His Obstetrics research incorporates themes from Odds ratio, Vaginal delivery, Betamethasone, Apgar score and Late preterm. His studies deal with areas such as Diabetes mellitus, Pregnancy outcomes and Confidence interval as well as Gestation. He has researched Gestational age in several fields, including Pediatrics, Neonatal intensive care unit and Gestational hypertension, Preeclampsia.
