Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

His main research concerns Odds ratio, Internal medicine, Risk factor, Case-control study and Cancer. His study in Odds ratio is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Surgery, Quartile, Vitamin, Breast cancer and Prostate cancer. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Oncology and Genotype.

His Risk factor study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Body mass index, Epidemiology, Gynecology, Prospective cohort study and Physiology. His Case-control study research focuses on subjects like Confounding, which are linked to Logistic regression. His work investigates the relationship between Cancer and topics such as Esophageal disease that intersect with problems in Adenocarcinoma.

His most cited work include:

  • Tobacco smoke and involuntary smoking (1323 citations)
  • Genome-wide trans-ancestry meta-analysis provides insight into the genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes susceptibility. (744 citations)
  • Urinary aflatoxin biomarkers and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (561 citations)

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

Yu-Tang Gao focuses on Internal medicine, Cancer, Odds ratio, Breast cancer and Case-control study. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Internal medicine, Physiology is strongly linked to Endocrinology. Within one scientific family, Yu-Tang Gao focuses on topics pertaining to Lung cancer under Cancer, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cotinine.

His Odds ratio research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Body mass index, Quartile, Confidence interval and Prostate cancer. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genotype, Gynecology and Allele. His research in Risk factor intersects with topics in Epidemiology and Incidence.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (55.85%)
  • Cancer (35.12%)
  • Odds ratio (31.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (55.85%)
  • Genome-wide association study (10.20%)
  • Cancer (35.12%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Genome-wide association study, Cancer, Genetics and Prospective cohort study. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Gastroenterology and Oncology. Yu-Tang Gao combines subjects such as SNP, Breast cancer, Genetic association and Genetic predisposition with his study of Genome-wide association study.

His research investigates the connection between Cancer and topics such as Lung cancer that intersect with issues in Logistic regression, Lung cancer susceptibility, Risk factor and Respiratory disease. His Prospective cohort study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cohort study, Hazard ratio, Physical therapy, Etiology and Cohort. His Odds ratio research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Body mass index and Confidence interval.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Large-scale association analysis identifies new lung cancer susceptibility loci and heterogeneity in genetic susceptibility across histological subtypes (192 citations)
  • Trans-ancestry genome-wide association study identifies 12 genetic loci influencing blood pressure and implicates a role for DNA methylation (192 citations)
  • Analysis of heritability and shared heritability based on genome-wide association studies for thirteen cancer types (108 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Genome-wide association study, Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Breast cancer. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism study combines topics in areas such as Genetic variation and Oncology. The various areas that Yu-Tang Gao examines in his Genetic association study include Minor allele frequency, Case-control study and Adenocarcinoma.

To a larger extent, he studies Internal medicine with the aim of understanding Case-control study. Yu-Tang Gao studies Cancer which is a part of Internal medicine. Yu-Tang Gao usually deals with Breast cancer and limits it to topics linked to Odds ratio and Cohort.
