OverviewAI-generated summary
Ragesh B. Thandassery's research focuses on the mechanisms and management of liver diseases, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis. He has investigated sarcopenia in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and explored advancements in treating non-cirrhotic hepatocellular carcinoma associated with chronic viral hepatitis. His work also addresses the impact of global health events, such as the COVID-19 outbreak, on the diagnosis and mortality risk of liver conditions, including alcohol-related hepatitis and cirrhosis. Dr. Thandassery has also contributed to understanding rare conditions, such as Castleman disease in liver transplant recipients, and has reviewed topics like liver biopsy in pregnancy. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 18, with over 140 publications and more than 1,000 citations. He actively collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Nimy John, Fares Mashal, Cody J. Timmermann, and Allison Wells.
