Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Endocrinology

Ulf Smith mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Adipose tissue, Insulin resistance and Insulin. He combines subjects such as Diabetes mellitus and Type 2 diabetes with his study of Internal medicine. His Type 2 diabetes study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Metformin, Glycemic and SLC30A8.

His work in Endocrinology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Inflammation. His research in Insulin resistance tackles topics such as Metabolic syndrome which are related to areas like Blood lipids. His Insulin research incorporates themes from Hypertriglyceridemia and Blood pressure.

His most cited work include:

  • Secondary prevention of macrovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes in the PROactive Study (PROspective pioglitAzone Clinical Trial In macroVascular Events): a randomised controlled trial. (3386 citations)
  • Impact of obesity on metabolism in men and women. Importance of regional adipose tissue distribution. (1208 citations)
  • Retinol-Binding Protein 4 and Insulin Resistance in Lean, Obese, and Diabetic Subjects (1062 citations)

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

Ulf Smith spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Insulin, Adipose tissue and Insulin resistance. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diabetes mellitus and Type 2 diabetes. His is involved in several facets of Endocrinology study, as is seen by his studies on Adipocyte, Lipolysis, Insulin receptor, Obesity and Adiponectin.

His research on Insulin often connects related areas such as Hormone. He interconnects Inflammation and Metabolism in the investigation of issues within Adipose tissue. His Insulin resistance research includes elements of Body mass index and Metabolic syndrome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (83.45%)
  • Endocrinology (80.10%)
  • Insulin (44.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (83.45%)
  • Endocrinology (80.10%)
  • Type 2 diabetes (19.90%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes, Insulin resistance and Diabetes mellitus. His study involves Adipose tissue, Insulin, Metabolic syndrome, GLUT4 and Insulin receptor, a branch of Endocrinology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Secretion and Precursor cell in addition to Adipose tissue.

His work on Impaired glucose tolerance as part of general Type 2 diabetes study is frequently connected to Lipid oxidation, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. He has included themes like Proinflammatory cytokine, Interleukin 6 and Mannose in his Insulin resistance study. His Diabetes mellitus research includes themes of Overweight and Family history.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Discovery of a class of endogenous mammalian lipids with anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory effects (386 citations)
  • Impact of type 2 diabetes susceptibility variants on quantitative glycemic traits reveals mechanistic heterogeneity (241 citations)
  • Insulin resistance and impaired adipogenesis. (205 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Diabetes mellitus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Insulin resistance, Diabetes mellitus and Type 2 diabetes. Much of his study explores Internal medicine relationship to Serine. His work on Adipose tissue, Obesity, Insulin and Body mass index as part of general Endocrinology study is frequently linked to Bone mineral, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His work carried out in the field of Adipose tissue brings together such families of science as Receptor, GLUT4, Bone morphogenetic protein 7 and Secretion. His research in Insulin intersects with topics in Metabolite and Exenatide. His study in the field of Insulin receptor also crosses realms of Retinol binding protein.
