Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Gene

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Obesity, Physical exercise and Weight loss. Wim H. M. Saris focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to topics relating to Diabetes mellitus and, in certain cases, Blood plasma. His research on Endocrinology often connects related topics like Carbohydrate.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Blood lipids, Randomized controlled trial, Animal science and Confidence interval. His Physical exercise research incorporates elements of Exercise physiology, Gerontology, Energy expenditure, Doubly labeled water and Risk factor. His Weight loss study deals with Surgery intersecting with Gastroenterology.

His most cited work include:

  • Reproducibility and relative validity of the short questionnaire to assess health-enhancing physical activity (921 citations)
  • Effect of sibutramine on weight maintenance after weight loss: a randomised trial (736 citations)
  • How much physical activity is enough to prevent unhealthy weight gain? Outcome of the IASO 1st Stock Conference and consensus statement (728 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Obesity, Weight loss and Body mass index. His study in Internal medicine focuses on Insulin resistance, Physical exercise, Ingestion, Overweight and Lipolysis. His Physical exercise study combines topics in areas such as Endurance training and Exercise physiology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Carbohydrate and Fatty acid in addition to Endocrinology. His Obesity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glycemic index, Gerontology, Randomized controlled trial, Weight gain and Animal science. Wim H. M. Saris has researched Weight loss in several fields, including Placebo, Resting energy expenditure, Leptin and Diet therapy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (63.28%)
  • Endocrinology (56.90%)
  • Obesity (24.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (63.28%)
  • Obesity (24.89%)
  • Endocrinology (56.90%)

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

Wim H. M. Saris mainly investigates Internal medicine, Obesity, Endocrinology, Weight loss and Overweight. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Gastroenterology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Nutrigenomics. His Obesity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Body mass index, Mediterranean diet, Randomized controlled trial and Gerontology.

As part of his studies on Endocrinology, Wim H. M. Saris frequently links adjacent subjects like Fatty acid. His work focuses on many connections between Weight loss and other disciplines, such as Lipid metabolism, that overlap with his field of interest in Genome-wide association study. His research investigates the connection with Overweight and areas like Glycemic index which intersect with concerns in Physiology.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of the once-daily GLP-1 analog liraglutide on gastric emptying, glycemic parameters, appetite and energy metabolism in obese, non-diabetic adults (216 citations)
  • Microbiota conservation and BMI signatures in adult monozygotic twins (191 citations)
  • Effect of personalized nutrition on health-related behaviour change: evidence from the Food4me European randomized controlled trial (137 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

Wim H. M. Saris mainly focuses on Obesity, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Weight loss and Randomized controlled trial. Wim H. M. Saris combines subjects such as Body mass index, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genotype and Cohort with his study of Obesity. He has included themes like Nutrigenomics and Allele in his Internal medicine study.

His research in the fields of Weight management overlaps with other disciplines such as Label-free quantification. The concepts of his Randomized controlled trial study are interwoven with issues in Gerontology, Saturated fatty acid, Behavior change, Physical therapy and Health education. His Insulin resistance research also works with subjects such as

  • Adipose tissue and related Fatty acid and Glucose uptake,
  • Carbohydrate metabolism which connect with Carbohydrate and Diabetes risk.
