1975 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

His scientific interests lie mostly in Pediatrics, Gestational age, White matter, Gestation and Fetus. His study in Pediatrics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Prospective cohort study, Birth weight and Cerebral palsy. His Gestational age study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Blood proteins, Surgery and Obstetrics.

His research integrates issues of Lesion, Pathology, Brain damage, Neuroscience and Ventriculomegaly in his study of White matter. Alan Leviton has researched Gestation in several fields, including Gross Motor Function Classification System, Bacteremia, Necrotizing enterocolitis, Neonatal intensive care unit and Univariate analysis. His biological study deals with issues like Physiology, which deal with fields such as Umbilical cord.

His most cited work include:

  • A report: the definition and classification of cerebral palsy April 2006. (2519 citations)
  • Proposed definition and classification of cerebral palsy, April 2005. (1735 citations)
  • Deficits in Psychologic and Classroom Performance of Children with Elevated Dentine Lead Levels (1319 citations)

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

Alan Leviton mainly investigates Pediatrics, Gestational age, Gestation, Obstetrics and Pathology. His research in Pediatrics intersects with topics in Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Cohort study, Cerebral palsy, Prospective cohort study and Cohort. His study looks at the intersection of Gestational age and topics like Odds ratio with Confidence interval.

His research on Gestation also deals with topics like

  • Inflammation which connect with Brain damage, Blood proteins and Endocrinology,
  • Fetus which is related to area like Immunology. Alan Leviton combines subjects such as Surgery, Chorioamnionitis, Low birth weight and Risk factor with his study of Obstetrics. His Pathology research integrates issues from White matter and Central nervous system disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pediatrics (42.70%)
  • Gestational age (35.21%)
  • Gestation (23.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Pediatrics (42.70%)
  • Gestational age (35.21%)
  • Gestation (23.78%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Pediatrics, Gestational age, Gestation, Systemic inflammation and Extremely preterm. His Pediatrics research includes elements of Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Cohort study, Neurocognitive, Prospective cohort study and Cohort. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Intraventricular hemorrhage and Gross Motor Function Classification System.

His studies in Gestational age integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio, Internal medicine, Birth weight, Cerebral palsy and Obstetrics. His Obstetrics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Infant newborn and Fetus. In his work, Ventriculomegaly and Very preterm is strongly intertwined with Retinopathy of prematurity, which is a subfield of Gestation.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Elevated concentrations of inflammation-related proteins in postnatal blood predict severe developmental delay at 2 years of age in extremely preterm infants. (94 citations)
  • Elevated concentrations of inflammation-related proteins in postnatal blood predict severe developmental delay at 2 years of age in extremely preterm infants. (94 citations)
  • Intermittent or sustained systemic inflammation and the preterm brain. (90 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

Gestational age, Pediatrics, Gestation, Systemic inflammation and Inflammation are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Gestational age study are interwoven with issues in Odds ratio, Sepsis, Cerebral palsy, Blood proteins and Bacteremia. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Birth weight, Cohort study, Autism and Cohort.

His work deals with themes such as Gross Motor Function Classification System and Ventriculomegaly, which intersect with Bayley Scales of Infant Development. His Gestation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Quartile, Intraventricular hemorrhage, Internal medicine, Obstetrics and C-reactive protein. His Obstetrics research includes elements of Placenta and Fetus.
