Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His main research concerns Diarrhea, Immunology, Pediatrics, Cohort study and Malnutrition. His Diarrhea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Epidemiology, Cryptosporidium, Lactoferrin, Public health and Shigellosis. He combines subjects such as Cryptosporidium parvum and Environmental health with his study of Cryptosporidium.

His work deals with themes such as Internal medicine, Asymptomatic, Feces and Giardia lamblia, which intersect with Immunology. Aldo A. M. Lima works mostly in the field of Pediatrics, limiting it down to concerns involving Early childhood and, occasionally, Nutrition Disorders, Anthropometry and Cohort. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cognitive development, Environmental enteropathy and Physiology in addition to Malnutrition.

His most cited work include:

  • Pathogen-specific burdens of community diarrhoea in developing countries: a multisite birth cohort study (MAL-ED). (466 citations)
  • Association of early childhood diarrhea and cryptosporidiosis with impaired physical fitness and cognitive function four-seven years later in a poor urban community in northeast Brazil (362 citations)
  • Malnutrition as an enteric infectious disease with long-term effects on child development (360 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Diarrhea, Immunology, Internal medicine, Malnutrition and Microbiology. His work carried out in the field of Diarrhea brings together such families of science as Incidence, Cohort study, Epidemiology, Cryptosporidium and Pediatrics. His study in Immunology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cryptosporidium parvum, Feces and Intestinal mucosa.

His Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gastroenterology, Glutamine and Endocrinology. Aldo A. M. Lima has included themes like Environmental health, Environmental enteropathy, Intensive care medicine, Early childhood and Physiology in his Malnutrition study. Aldo A. M. Lima focuses mostly in the field of Microbiology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Apoptosis and, in certain cases, Cell growth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Diarrhea (47.18%)
  • Immunology (37.95%)
  • Internal medicine (37.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Malnutrition (27.69%)
  • Diarrhea (47.18%)
  • Immunology (37.95%)

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

Aldo A. M. Lima mainly investigates Malnutrition, Diarrhea, Immunology, Internal medicine and Cohort study. His research in Malnutrition intersects with topics in Early childhood, Physiology, Cohort and Intensive care medicine. His Diarrhea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Shigella, Epidemiology, Incidence and Microbiology.

His Immunology research integrates issues from Enteropathy, Environmental enteropathy and Campylobacter. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Giardia, Micronutrient and Endocrinology. His study in the field of Birth cohort is also linked to topics like Multi country.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pathogen-specific burdens of community diarrhoea in developing countries: a multisite birth cohort study (MAL-ED). (466 citations)
  • The MAL-ED Study: A Multinational and Multidisciplinary Approach to Understand the Relationship Between Enteric Pathogens, Malnutrition, Gut Physiology, Physical Growth, Cognitive Development, and Immune Responses in Infants and Children Up to 2 Years of Age in Resource-Poor Environments (211 citations)
  • Environmental Enteric Dysfunction: Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Clinical Consequences (155 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

Immunology, Cohort study, Malnutrition, Internal medicine and Diarrhea are his primary areas of study. His research brings together the fields of Environmental enteropathy and Immunology. Aldo A. M. Lima works mostly in the field of Cohort study, limiting it down to topics relating to Environmental health and, in certain cases, Cryptosporidium infection, Morbidity mortality, Standard score and Sanitation, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Malnutrition research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Physiology, Cohort and Intensive care medicine. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Giardia and Campylobacter. His Diarrhea research includes themes of Antibiotics, Epidemiology, Incidence, Relative risk and Etiology.
