Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

W. T. Longstreth mostly deals with Stroke, Surgery, Risk factor, Internal medicine and Case-control study. W. T. Longstreth interconnects Physical therapy, Predictive value of tests, Vascular disease and Comorbidity in the investigation of issues within Stroke. W. T. Longstreth combines subjects such as Relative risk, Magnetic resonance imaging, Cohort study and Confounding with his study of Surgery.

W. T. Longstreth has included themes like Epidemiology and Physiology in his Risk factor study. His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Hyperintensity and Cardiology. His Case-control study research incorporates elements of Odds ratio, Endocrinology, Alzheimer's disease and Obstetrics.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic variants in novel pathways influence blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk (1543 citations)
  • Unruptured intracranial aneurysms - Risk of rupture and risks of surgical intervention (1382 citations)
  • Clinical Correlates of White Matter Findings on Cranial Magnetic Resonance Imaging of 3301 Elderly People: The Cardiovascular Health Study (1233 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Stroke, Cardiology, Surgery and Risk factor. As part of his studies on Internal medicine, W. T. Longstreth often connects relevant areas like Endocrinology. The Stroke study combines topics in areas such as Cohort study, Prospective cohort study, Myocardial infarction, Physical therapy and Cohort.

His Cardiology research integrates issues from Magnetic resonance imaging, Hyperintensity, Diabetes mellitus, Blood pressure and Proportional hazards model. His Surgery research includes themes of Intracerebral hemorrhage, Cerebral infarction and Pediatrics. His studies in Odds ratio integrate themes in fields like Immunology, Case-control study, Genetic association and Confidence interval.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (43.10%)
  • Stroke (37.05%)
  • Cardiology (18.40%)

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

  • Internal medicine (43.10%)
  • Stroke (37.05%)
  • Cardiology (18.40%)

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

W. T. Longstreth focuses on Internal medicine, Stroke, Cardiology, Epidemiology and Cardiovascular health. His Internal medicine research includes elements of Diabetes mellitus and Magnetic resonance imaging. His research on Stroke focuses in particular on Ischemic stroke.

Many of his studies on Cardiology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Odds ratio. The study incorporates disciplines such as Fatty acid, Disease and Emergency medicine in addition to Epidemiology. His studies deal with areas such as Body mass index, Prospective cohort study, Gerontology and Alcohol intake as well as Cardiovascular health.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multiancestry genome-wide association study of 520,000 subjects identifies 32 loci associated with stroke and stroke subtypes (127 citations)
  • The AtRial Cardiopathy and Antithrombotic Drugs In prevention After cryptogenic stroke randomized trial: Rationale and methods. (98 citations)
  • Atrial Cardiopathy and the Risk of Ischemic Stroke in the CHS (Cardiovascular Health Study). (49 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Stroke, Internal medicine, Hyperintensity, Cardiology and Genetics. His Stroke study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mendelian randomization, Genome-wide association study, Incidence and Bioinformatics. He performs integrative study on Internal medicine and Adjudication.

His research investigates the connection between Cardiology and topics such as Prospective cohort study that intersect with issues in Leukoaraiosis, Left atrial, Relative risk, Left atrial enlargement and Odds ratio. His Confidence interval research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cardiovascular health and Proportional hazards model. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Confounding.
