Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Leptin, Adipose tissue and Natriuretic peptide. His research on Internal medicine frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cardiology. His is involved in several facets of Endocrinology study, as is seen by his studies on Hypothalamus, Leptin receptor, Insulin resistance, Adipocyte and Diabetes mellitus.

His Leptin study also includes fields such as

  • Placenta most often made with reference to Hormone,
  • Energy homeostasis, which have a strong connection to Ghrelin secretion and Ghrelin. His Adipose tissue research includes elements of Proinflammatory cytokine, FGF21 and Adipokine. Yoshihiro Ogawa focuses mostly in the field of Natriuretic peptide, narrowing it down to matters related to Endochondral ossification and, in some cases, Homeostasis.

His most cited work include:

  • Brain natriuretic peptide as a novel cardiac hormone in humans. Evidence for an exquisite dual natriuretic peptide system, atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide. (1201 citations)
  • Stomach Is a Major Source of Circulating Ghrelin, and Feeding State Determines Plasma Ghrelin-Like Immunoreactivity Levels in Humans (1133 citations)
  • Nonadipose tissue production of leptin: leptin as a novel placenta-derived hormone in humans. (1109 citations)

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

Yoshihiro Ogawa mostly deals with Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes mellitus, Leptin and Adipose tissue. The Internal medicine study which covers Type 2 diabetes that intersects with Body mass index. Yoshihiro Ogawa frequently studies issues relating to Gene expression and Endocrinology.

Leptin and Hypothalamus are commonly linked in his work. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Adipose tissue, focusing on Inflammation and, on occasion, Stromal cell and Fibrosis. A large part of his Natriuretic peptide studies is devoted to NPR2.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (71.50%)
  • Endocrinology (55.57%)
  • Diabetes mellitus (17.37%)

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

  • Internal medicine (71.50%)
  • Endocrinology (55.57%)
  • Primary aldosteronism (6.23%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Primary aldosteronism, Gastroenterology and Diabetes mellitus. His Internal medicine study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Cardiology. In his study, Cell biology is strongly linked to DNA methylation, which falls under the umbrella field of Endocrinology.

He works mostly in the field of Primary aldosteronism, limiting it down to topics relating to Adrenalectomy and, in certain cases, Blood pressure. His study in Diabetes mellitus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bilirubin and Pregnancy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fibrosis and Inflammation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Obesity and abnormal glucose tolerance in offspring of diabetic mothers: A systematic review and meta-analysis. (61 citations)
  • Obesity and abnormal glucose tolerance in offspring of diabetic mothers: A systematic review and meta-analysis. (61 citations)
  • Prevalence of Cardiovascular Disease and Its Risk Factors in Primary Aldosteronism: A Multicenter Study in Japan. (59 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes mellitus, Primary aldosteronism and Type 2 diabetes. Yoshihiro Ogawa combines subjects such as Gastroenterology and Canagliflozin with his study of Internal medicine. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Fibrosis and Proinflammatory cytokine.

His Diabetes mellitus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bioelectrical impedance analysis, Body mass index and Oxidative stress. His Type 2 diabetes research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sarcopenia, Oxygen tension, Renal cortex, Pathology and Magnetic resonance imaging. Yoshihiro Ogawa interconnects Inflammation and Stromal cell in the investigation of issues within Adipose tissue.
