Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cancer

His main research concerns Surgery, Respiratory disease, Internal medicine, Pleural effusion and Pleural disease. Steven A. Sahn has researched Surgery in several fields, including Adverse effect, Incidence and Etiology. His Respiratory disease research incorporates elements of Effusion, Empyema, Pathology and Pneumothorax, Pleurodesis.

Steven A. Sahn interconnects Gastroenterology, Placebo and Bacteremia in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine. His Pleural disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pleurisy, Atelectasis and Malignant pleural effusion. His study in Vital capacity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pirfenidone and Nintedanib.

His most cited work include:

  • A phase 3 trial of pirfenidone in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (1848 citations)
  • Pirfenidone in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (CAPACITY): two randomised trials. (1206 citations)
  • Management of Spontaneous Pneumothorax: An American College of Chest Physicians Delphi Consensus Statement (805 citations)

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

Steven A. Sahn focuses on Surgery, Pleural effusion, Internal medicine, Respiratory disease and Pathology. His Surgery research includes elements of Adverse effect and Incidence. His studies in Pleural effusion integrate themes in fields like Effusion and Empyema.

The various areas that Steven A. Sahn examines in his Internal medicine study include Gastroenterology and Cardiology. In his study, Mechanical ventilation is strongly linked to Intensive care medicine, which falls under the umbrella field of Respiratory disease. Steven A. Sahn works mostly in the field of Pathology, limiting it down to topics relating to Pleural fluid and, in certain cases, Acidosis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surgery (37.36%)
  • Pleural effusion (24.71%)
  • Internal medicine (24.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Internal medicine (24.71%)
  • Surgery (37.36%)
  • Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (8.62%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Surgery, Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, Pleural effusion and Pathology. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gastroenterology and Physical therapy. Surgery is frequently linked to Pleural disease in his study.

His Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Placebo, Vital capacity, FEV1/FVC ratio and Minimal clinically important difference. He combines subjects such as Effusion and Empyema with his study of Pleural effusion. His Pathology research includes themes of Antibody and Pleural fluid.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A phase 3 trial of pirfenidone in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (1848 citations)
  • Pirfenidone in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (CAPACITY): two randomised trials. (1206 citations)
  • Forced vital capacity in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: test properties and minimal clinically important difference. (290 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cancer

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, Surgery, FEV1/FVC ratio and Vital capacity. His Internal medicine research incorporates themes from Gastroenterology, Radiology and SCLEROSING AGENTS. His Gastroenterology study incorporates themes from Pleurisy and Pleural effusion.

His research integrates issues of Physical therapy and Randomized controlled trial in his study of Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Surgery is closely attributed to Saline in his research. His work carried out in the field of Pirfenidone brings together such families of science as Placebo, Adverse effect and Clinical trial.
