Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cancer

Tom Wilsgaard mostly deals with Internal medicine, Body mass index, Surgery, Genome-wide association study and Risk factor. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endocrinology and Cardiology. The Body mass index study combines topics in areas such as Global health, Sex characteristics, Obesity and Blood pressure.

His work deals with themes such as Myocardial infarction, Cohort study, Population study and Hazard ratio, which intersect with Surgery. His Genome-wide association study study is focused on Genetics in general. His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Blood lipids, Prospective cohort study and Quartile.

His most cited work include:

  • Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults (2180 citations)
  • Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels (1814 citations)
  • Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980: a pooled analysis of 751 population-based studies with 4.4 million participants (1737 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Body mass index, Cardiology, Hazard ratio and Surgery. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Endocrinology and Oncology. Tom Wilsgaard works mostly in the field of Body mass index, limiting it down to topics relating to Prospective cohort study and, in certain cases, Physical therapy.

Tom Wilsgaard combines subjects such as Stroke and Diastole with his study of Cardiology. His Hazard ratio research incorporates themes from Venous thrombosis, Proportional hazards model, Cohort study and Cohort. His Cohort study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Epidemiology and Gerontology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (47.65%)
  • Body mass index (21.83%)
  • Cardiology (15.96%)

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

  • Internal medicine (47.65%)
  • Hazard ratio (15.73%)
  • Epidemiology (13.62%)

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

Internal medicine, Hazard ratio, Epidemiology, Cardiology and Oncology are his primary areas of study. His Hazard ratio study incorporates themes from Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Incidence. Tom Wilsgaard interconnects Pulmonary embolism, Obesity, Blood pressure and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Epidemiology.

His work carried out in the field of Cardiology brings together such families of science as Fetus, Quartile, Gestation and Ischemic stroke. His Cohort study research includes elements of Body mass index, Overweight and Birth weight. His work on Underweight as part of general Body mass index research is frequently linked to Peer review, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rising rural body-mass index is the main driver of the global obesity epidemic in adults (171 citations)
  • Cost-Effectiveness of Telemedicine in Remote Orthopedic Consultations: Randomized Controlled Trial. (80 citations)
  • Cost-Effectiveness of Telemedicine in Remote Orthopedic Consultations: Randomized Controlled Trial. (80 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Oncology, Hazard ratio, Randomized controlled trial and Incidence. Much of his study explores Internal medicine relationship to Cardiology. His studies deal with areas such as Vitamin D and neurology, Cohort study, Myocardial infarction and Single-nucleotide polymorphism as well as Hazard ratio.

His Randomized controlled trial research includes themes of Telemedicine and Medical emergency. His Incidence study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Colorectal cancer, Prostate cancer and Cohort. Tom Wilsgaard has researched Proportional hazards model in several fields, including Body mass index, Performance status and Confidence interval.
