He is experienced in various kinds of study design including randomized controlled trial, prospective cohort study, and retrospective cohort study (with particular focus on Big Data analysis). He has published 140 top international peer-reviewed journal articles since 2016 (with an h-index of 37 and over 6500 cumulative citations), including first- or corresponding-authored articles in Gastroenterology (impact factor 29.4), Gut (impact factor 24.5), Diabetes Care (impact factor 16.2), Canadian Medical Association Journal (impact factor 14.6), Liver Cancer (impact factor 13.8), Journal of the National Cancer Institute (impact factor 10.3), Hypertension (impact factor 8.3), Vaccines (impact factor 7.8), Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics (impact factor 7.6), Clinical and Molecular Hepatology (impact factor 8.9), Hepatology International (impact factor 6.6), International Journal of Cancer (impact factor 6.4), and Cancer (impact factor 6.2).
