Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Virology, Hepatitis B virus, Genotype, Virus and Immunology. His research on Virology often connects related topics like Hepatocellular carcinoma. His research integrates issues of Cirrhosis and Carcinoma in his study of Hepatocellular carcinoma.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Hepatitis B and Cancer research in addition to Hepatitis B virus. His Genotype research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hepatitis B virus genotype and Genetic variation. His Immunology research includes elements of Odds ratio, Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Gastroenterology.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide association of IL28B with response to pegylated interferon-alpha and ribavirin therapy for chronic hepatitis C. (1953 citations)
  • Independent risk factors and predictive score for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in chronic hepatitis B (382 citations)
  • Hepatic ISG Expression Is Associated With Genetic Variation in Interleukin 28B and the Outcome of IFN Therapy for Chronic Hepatitis C (363 citations)

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

Yasuhito Tanaka focuses on Virology, Hepatitis B virus, Internal medicine, Genotype and Hepatitis C virus. He has included themes like Genetics, Antibody and Immunology in his Virology study. His study in Immunology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genome-wide association study and Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

His Hepatitis B virus research incorporates elements of Hepatitis B and Hepatitis. His research investigates the connection with Internal medicine and areas like Gastroenterology which intersect with concerns in Chronic hepatitis. His studies in Hepatitis C virus integrate themes in fields like Interferon, Hepatitis C and Viral load.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (33.06%)
  • Hepatitis B virus (25.71%)
  • Internal medicine (22.35%)

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

  • Internal medicine (22.35%)
  • Gastroenterology (13.88%)
  • Hepatitis B virus (25.71%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Gastroenterology, Hepatitis B virus, Surgery and Hepatocellular carcinoma. His Internal medicine study which covers Hepatitis C virus that intersects with Hepatitis C. The Gastroenterology study combines topics in areas such as Regimen and Ribavirin.

His Hepatitis B virus study introduces a deeper knowledge of Virology. His study on Ankle and Orthopedic surgery is often connected to In patient as part of broader study in Surgery. His Hepatocellular carcinoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Liver disease and Virus, Chronic hepatitis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gut Dysbiosis Associated With Hepatitis C Virus Infection. (59 citations)
  • Denosumab May Increase the Risk of Local Recurrence in Patients with Giant-Cell Tumor of Bone Treated with Curettage. (52 citations)
  • Epidermal growth factor receptor is a host-entry cofactor triggering hepatitis B virus internalization (49 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Gastroenterology, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Hepatitis B virus and Hepatitis C virus. His work in Internal medicine tackles topics such as Sofosbuvir which are related to areas like Ledipasvir, Asunaprevir and Daclatasvir. His Gastroenterology study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index, Liver cancer, Proportional hazards model, Ombitasvir and Fibrosis.

His Hepatocellular carcinoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Liver disease, Liver biopsy, Hepatic fibrosis and Hazard ratio. His Hepatitis B virus research is under the purview of Virology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hepatitis C, Propensity score matching, Cohort and Confidence interval.
