Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Epilepsy

His main research concerns Epilepsy, Surgery, Epilepsy surgery, Ictal and Electroencephalography. His study on Hemispherectomy, Cortical dysplasia and Temporal lobe is often connected to Abnormality as part of broader study in Epilepsy. The Hemispherectomy study combines topics in areas such as Neurosurgery, Magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroimaging and Seizure types.

His studies deal with areas such as Anesthesia and Sciatic nerve as well as Surgery. His Epilepsy surgery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Central nervous system disease and Retrospective cohort study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Scalp, Intractable epilepsy and Ganglioglioma.

His most cited work include:

  • Seizure outcome after epilepsy surgery in children and adolescents (449 citations)
  • Surgery for intractable infantile spasms: neuroimaging perspectives. (242 citations)
  • Epilepsy surgery in infants. (198 citations)

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

Youssef G. Comair mainly investigates Epilepsy, Surgery, Epilepsy surgery, Cortical dysplasia and Central nervous system disease. His Epilepsy study incorporates themes from Anesthesia, Pediatrics and Electroencephalography. Youssef G. Comair interconnects Hemispherectomy, Magnetic resonance imaging and Hemimegalencephaly in the investigation of issues within Surgery.

Youssef G. Comair has included themes like Cognition, Neuropsychology, Quality of life, Retrospective cohort study and Etiology in his Epilepsy surgery study. His Cortical dysplasia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dysplasia, Pathology, Ganglioglioma, Resection and Hypsarrhythmia. The concepts of his Central nervous system disease study are interwoven with issues in El Niño, Early childhood, Lobe and Cardiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Epilepsy (59.15%)
  • Surgery (45.07%)
  • Epilepsy surgery (36.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2019)?

  • Epilepsy (59.15%)
  • Epilepsy surgery (36.62%)
  • Surgery (45.07%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Epilepsy, Epilepsy surgery, Surgery, Anesthesia and Vocal tics. His Epilepsy study frequently links to other fields, such as Physical therapy. Youssef G. Comair has researched Epilepsy surgery in several fields, including Quality of life, Retrospective cohort study, Clinical trial and Etiology.

The various areas that Youssef G. Comair examines in his Surgery study include Cortical dysplasia and Electroencephalography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Functional imaging, Dysplasia and Physical medicine and rehabilitation in addition to Cortical dysplasia. His Anesthesia research integrates issues from Caudate nucleus, Dopamine and Human brain.

Between 2005 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Predictors of outcome after temporal lobectomy for the treatment of intractable epilepsy (185 citations)
  • Sub-second dopamine detection in human striatum. (68 citations)
  • Deep brain stimulation as a mode of treatment of early onset pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration. (68 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Epilepsy

Surgery, Epilepsy surgery, Epilepsy, Central nervous system disease and Neuroscience are his primary areas of study. His Surgery study combines topics in areas such as Anterior temporal lobectomy, Severity of illness and Clinical trial. His Epilepsy surgery research includes themes of Discontinuation and Seizure frequency.

His study in Epilepsy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cohort study, El Niño, Cognition, Quality of life and Cohort. His research in Central nervous system disease intersects with topics in Intractable seizures, Temporal lobe, Temporal lobectomy and Pediatrics. In the field of Neuroscience, his study on Striatum and Dystonia overlaps with subjects such as Deep brain stimulation and Globus pallidus.
