What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Disease
- Malaria
His scientific interests lie mostly in Malaria, Pediatrics, Outbreak, Disease and Mosquito net.
His Malaria research is included under the broader classification of Immunology.
As part of the same scientific family, Allen W. Hightower usually focuses on Pediatrics, concentrating on Incidence and intersecting with Risk factor, Odds ratio, Confidence interval, Epidemiology and Bacteremia.
Allen W. Hightower combines subjects such as Viral disease, Diarrhea and Microbiology with his study of Outbreak.
His Disease study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Population based, Haemophilus influenzae type, Tuberculosis and Environmental exposure.
His research integrates issues of Surgery, Meta-analysis, Internal medicine, Rate ratio and Mosquito control in his study of Parasitemia.
His most cited work include:
- COMMUNITY-WIDE EFFECTS OF PERMETHRIN-TREATED BED NETS ON CHILD MORTALITY AND MALARIA MORBIDITY IN WESTERN KENYA (465 citations)
- Bacterial Meningitis in the United States, 1986: Report of a Multistate Surveillance Study (400 citations)
- The Emergence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infections in United States Hospitals: Possible Role of the House Staff-Patient Transfer Circuit (332 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Allen W. Hightower mainly focuses on Immunology, Pediatrics, Malaria, Epidemiology and Outbreak.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Surgery, Disease and Cohort.
Allen W. Hightower interconnects Anemia and Mosquito net in the investigation of issues within Malaria.
His Epidemiology research incorporates themes from Cryptosporidium parvum, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Tropical medicine, Public health and Risk factor.
His Risk factor research includes elements of Odds ratio and Incidence.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Veterinary medicine, Microbiology and Transmission in addition to Outbreak.
He most often published in these fields:
- Immunology (22.50%)
- Pediatrics (18.13%)
- Malaria (18.13%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?
- Environmental health (10.00%)
- Outbreak (16.25%)
- Rift Valley fever (5.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Allen W. Hightower focuses on Environmental health, Outbreak, Rift Valley fever, Epidemiology and Young adult.
The concepts of his Environmental health study are interwoven with issues in Transmission, Demographic surveillance system, Malaria and Poisson regression.
Allen W. Hightower has researched Outbreak in several fields, including Veterinary medicine and Viral disease.
The various areas that Allen W. Hightower examines in his Epidemiology study include Visceral leishmaniasis and Risk factor.
His research investigates the connection between Risk factor and topics such as Attributable risk that intersect with problems in Disease.
In Gerontology, Allen W. Hightower works on issues like Mass screening, which are connected to Immunology.
Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Profile: The KEMRI/CDC Health and Demographic Surveillance System—Western Kenya (146 citations)
- Prediction, Assessment of the Rift Valley Fever Activity in East and Southern Africa 2006–2008 and Possible Vector Control Strategies (133 citations)
- An Investigation of a Major Outbreak of Rift Valley Fever in Kenya: 2006–2007 (125 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Disease
- Virus
Allen W. Hightower mainly investigates Rift Valley fever, Young adult, Outbreak, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Livestock.
His study in Young adult is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Psychological intervention, Syphilis, Multivariate analysis, Concordance and Gynecology.
His Outbreak study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Veterinary medicine, Odds ratio and Confidence interval.
His Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome course of study focuses on Gerontology and Epidemiology.
His studies in Epidemiology integrate themes in fields like Serology, Disease and Risk factor.
Allen W. Hightower works mostly in the field of Livestock, limiting it down to topics relating to Epizootic and, in certain cases, Vector, Habitat, El Niño and Vegetation, as a part of the same area of interest.
