OverviewAI-generated summary
A.R. Folsom's research primarily focuses on cardiovascular health and disease risk, particularly as investigated through large-scale prospective cohort studies. Folsom has contributed to the Atherosclerosis Risk In Communities (ARIC) study, examining various aspects of cardiovascular health in community-dwelling populations. This work includes investigations into the relationship between air pollution and venous thromboembolism, heart failure stages among older adults, and the association between different forms of atrial fibrillation and cognitive function.
Further research has explored the spectrum of ankle-brachial index in relation to heart failure risk, the prevalence of subclinical atrial fibrillation in the elderly, and the risk of peripheral artery disease across different racial and sex demographics. Folsom's scholarship also includes work on the predictive value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin and natriuretic peptide levels for lower-extremity peripheral artery disease within the ARIC study cohort. With 80 publications and an h-index of 28, Folsom has a significant body of work in this field.
