OverviewAI-generated summary
Nikhil Meena, a professor in Internal Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, has a research focus that includes the evaluation of diagnostic criteria for secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, robotic bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesion biopsy, and competency assessment in electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy. His work has explored Bayesian methods for sepsis trials and conducted meta-analyses on mediastinal cryobiopsy versus endobronchial ultrasound-transbronchial needle aspiration for intrathoracic adenopathy diagnosis. Dr. Meena has also investigated the association between tocilizumab use and an increased risk of fungal infections in critically ill COVID-19 patients with acute renal failure, as well as the feasibility of rapid on-site cytologic evaluation using ancillary interventional pulmonary personnel. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 18, with 122 total publications and 896 total citations.
