1995 - Kelly West Award, American Diabetes Association

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Gene

His main research concerns Diabetes mellitus, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Type 2 diabetes and Obesity. The Diabetes mellitus study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index and Incidence. His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Case-control study and Genetic variation.

His work carried out in the field of Type 2 diabetes brings together such families of science as Diabetic nephropathy, Weight loss, Rate ratio, Hazard ratio and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. William C. Knowler works mostly in the field of Weight loss, limiting it down to topics relating to Physical therapy and, in certain cases, Research design, as a part of the same area of interest. His studies deal with areas such as Offspring, Pregnancy, Gerontology, Weight gain and Pediatrics as well as Obesity.

His most cited work include:

  • Reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with lifestyle intervention or metformin. (14249 citations)
  • Report of the expert committee on the diagnosis and classification of diabetes mellitus (9636 citations)
  • Follow-up Report on the Diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus (3225 citations)

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

William C. Knowler spends much of his time researching Diabetes mellitus, Internal medicine, Type 2 diabetes, Endocrinology and Obesity. William C. Knowler has included themes like Body mass index, Incidence and Gerontology in his Diabetes mellitus study. Internal medicine is closely attributed to Nephropathy in his work.

In Type 2 diabetes, he works on issues like Weight loss, which are connected to Clinical trial. The study of Endocrinology is intertwined with the study of Risk factor in a number of ways. His study in Obesity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Weight gain, Blood pressure and Pediatrics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Diabetes mellitus (65.44%)
  • Internal medicine (60.53%)
  • Type 2 diabetes (45.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Diabetes mellitus (65.44%)
  • Type 2 diabetes (45.40%)
  • Internal medicine (60.53%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes, Internal medicine, Obesity and Overweight. A large part of his Diabetes mellitus studies is devoted to Metformin. His Type 2 diabetes research includes elements of Physical therapy, Randomized controlled trial, Weight loss and Clinical trial.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. The concepts of his Obesity study are interwoven with issues in Anthropometry, Growth chart, Pediatrics and Family medicine. He combines subjects such as Beck Depression Inventory and Depression with his study of Overweight.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Vitamin D Supplementation and Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes (179 citations)
  • Change in albuminuria and subsequent risk of end-stage kidney disease: an individual participant-level consortium meta-analysis of observational studies (78 citations)
  • Metformin for diabetes prevention: insights gained from the Diabetes Prevention Program/Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study. (71 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Gene

William C. Knowler mainly focuses on Diabetes mellitus, Type 2 diabetes, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Obesity. His Diabetes mellitus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clinical trial and Incidence. His Type 2 diabetes research integrates issues from Body mass index, Overweight, Weight loss, Randomized controlled trial and Physical therapy.

His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology, Genome-wide association study and Prediabetes. In general Endocrinology, his work in Diabetic nephropathy is often linked to African american linking many areas of study. His Underweight study in the realm of Obesity connects with subjects such as Cutoff.
