  • 2023 - Research.com Medicine in Japan Leader Award

Overview

Toshio Ogihara is affiliated with Osaka University in Japan and has contributed extensively to the field of Medicine, with a particular focus on Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine. Their research portfolio encompasses multiple subfields including Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, Molecular Biology, Complementary and Alternative Medicine, and Cancer Research.

Their work addresses several core topics, including:

  • Blood Pressure and Hypertension Studies
  • Heart Rate Variability and Autonomic Control
  • Hormonal Regulation and Hypertension
  • Diabetes Treatment and Management
  • Cardiac Health and Mental Health
  • Cancer, Lipids, and Metabolism
  • Cardiovascular Function and Risk Factors

Recent publications show a pattern of meta-analytical studies primarily focused on blood pressure and cardiovascular outcomes. Notable papers include:

  • Pharmacological blood pressure lowering for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease across different levels of blood pressure: an individual participant-level data meta-analysis (2021, The Lancet)
  • Age-stratified and blood-pressure-stratified effects of blood-pressure-lowering pharmacotherapy for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and death: an individual participant-level data meta-analysis (2021, The Lancet)
  • Antihypertensive treatment and risk of cancer: an individual participant data meta-analysis (2021, The Lancet Oncology)
  • Blood pressure-lowering treatment for prevention of major cardiovascular diseases in people with and without type 2 diabetes: an individual participant-level data meta-analysis (2022, The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology)
  • Effects of ipragliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: The EXCEED randomized controlled multicenter study (2022, Geriatrics and gerontology international/Geriatrics & gerontology international)

Coauthorship patterns indicate frequent collaboration with researchers such as Hiromi Rakugi, Mark Woodward, Sverre E. Kjeldsen, Seiji Umemoto, and John Chalmers. This network reflects interdisciplinary cooperation in cardiovascular and metabolic research.

Several publication venues have hosted Ogihara's research, with multiple articles appearing in prestigious journals. Frequent venues include:

  • The Lancet
  • The Lancet Oncology
  • The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology
  • Geriatrics and gerontology international/Geriatrics & gerontology international
  • BMC Nursing
