Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cardiology
  • Myocardial infarction

Wataru Shimizu spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Cardiology, Brugada syndrome, Long QT syndrome and QT interval. Internal medicine is closely attributed to Endocrinology in his research. The Cardiology study combines topics in areas such as Anesthesia and Repolarization.

Wataru Shimizu combines subjects such as ST elevation, Benign early repolarization, Sudden death and Ventricular fibrillation with his study of Brugada syndrome. He has researched Long QT syndrome in several fields, including Genetics, Cancer research, T wave alternans, hERG and Afterdepolarization. His research integrates issues of Isoprenaline, Mutation, Proportional hazards model, Heart block and Risk factor in his study of QT interval.

His most cited work include:

  • Brugada Syndrome: Report of the Second Consensus Conference Endorsed by the Heart Rhythm Society and the European Heart Rhythm Association (1496 citations)
  • Brugada syndrome: report of the second consensus conference (531 citations)
  • The M cell: its contribution to the ECG and to normal and abnormal electrical function of the heart. (521 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Cardiology, In patient, Heart failure and Long QT syndrome. Internal medicine is a component of his Atrial fibrillation, Brugada syndrome, Electrocardiography, QT interval and Ventricular fibrillation studies. His QT interval research incorporates themes from Repolarization and Sudden cardiac death.

His study on Cardiology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Anesthesia. His Heart failure course of study focuses on Hazard ratio and Proportional hazards model. His study brings together the fields of Genetics and Long QT syndrome.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (78.19%)
  • Cardiology (68.60%)
  • In patient (17.60%)

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

  • Internal medicine (78.19%)
  • Cardiology (68.60%)
  • Heart failure (16.75%)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Cardiology, Heart failure, Atrial fibrillation and In patient. His study in Myocardial infarction, Hazard ratio, Stroke, Confidence interval and Ejection fraction is carried out as part of his studies in Internal medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Acute coronary syndrome, Survival rate, Mortality rate, Proportional hazards model and Intensive care unit in addition to Hazard ratio.

His Cardiology study is mostly concerned with Ventricular fibrillation, Ventricular tachycardia, Sudden cardiac death, Electrocardiography and Catheter ablation. As part of the same scientific family, Wataru Shimizu usually focuses on Heart failure, concentrating on Gastroenterology and intersecting with Uric acid. His Atrial fibrillation research includes themes of Anticoagulant, Observational study, Incidence and Ablation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 2019 HRS expert consensus statement on evaluation, risk stratification, and management of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (148 citations)
  • JCS 2017/JHFS 2017 Guideline on Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute and Chronic Heart Failure ― Digest Version ― (103 citations)
  • JCS 2018 Guideline on Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Coronary Syndrome. (83 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cardiology
  • Myocardial infarction

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Cardiology, Heart failure, Atrial fibrillation and In patient. Hazard ratio, Sudden cardiac death, Ejection fraction, Stroke and Confidence interval are the subjects of his Internal medicine studies. His Sudden cardiac death research integrates issues from Left ventricular hypertrophy, QT interval, Long QT syndrome, Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and Magnetocardiography.

His work in Cardiology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Survival rate. His work deals with themes such as Clinical trial, Outpatient clinic, Gastroenterology, Intensive care medicine and Cardiac surgery, which intersect with Heart failure. In his study, Cohort study and Prospective cohort study is strongly linked to Observational study, which falls under the umbrella field of Atrial fibrillation.
