Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Body mass index, Pediatrics, Prospective cohort study and Cohort study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology and Physiology. Andy R Ness has included themes like Odds ratio, Weight gain, Obesity and Demography in his Body mass index study.

His Pediatrics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Coronary heart disease, Longitudinal study, Physical activity level and Cohort. Andy R Ness interconnects Bone density and Risk factor in the investigation of issues within Prospective cohort study. His studies deal with areas such as Epidemiology, MEDLINE and Confounding as well as Cohort study.

His most cited work include:

  • A common variant in the FTO gene is associated with body mass index and predisposes to childhood and adult obesity (3415 citations)
  • Cohort Profile: The ‘Children of the 90s’—the index offspring of the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (1643 citations)
  • Six new loci associated with body mass index highlight a neuronal influence on body weight regulation (1434 citations)

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

Andy R Ness spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Longitudinal study, Pediatrics, Body mass index and Demography. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology, Surgery and Oncology. His Longitudinal study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Offspring, Pregnancy, Cohort study, Cohort and Confounding.

His Pediatrics study also includes fields such as

  • Prospective cohort study and related Risk factor,
  • Cross-sectional study together with Family medicine. His research in Body mass index intersects with topics in Weight gain, Birth weight, Obesity and Confidence interval. He combines subjects such as Disease and Hazard ratio with his study of Cancer.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (29.57%)
  • Longitudinal study (21.36%)
  • Pediatrics (20.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (29.57%)
  • Head and neck cancer (7.60%)
  • Cancer (8.01%)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Head and neck cancer, Cancer, Oncology and Cohort study. He focuses mostly in the field of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to topics relating to Mendelian randomization and, in certain cases, Genome-wide association study. His Head and neck cancer research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Affect, Quality of life, Head and neck and Confounding.

His research integrates issues of Incidence and MEDLINE in his study of Cancer. As part of his studies on Cohort study, Andy R Ness often connects relevant subjects like Demography. The concepts of his Confidence interval study are interwoven with issues in Body mass index, Odds ratio, Cohort and Receiver operating characteristic.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Associations of Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplement Use With Cardiovascular Disease Risks: Meta-analysis of 10 Trials Involving 77 917 Individuals. (328 citations)
  • Tobacco smoking and alcohol drinking at diagnosis of head and neck cancer and all-cause mortality: Results from head and neck 5000, a prospective observational cohort of people with head and neck cancer. (48 citations)
  • Tobacco smoking and alcohol drinking at diagnosis of head and neck cancer and all-cause mortality: Results from head and neck 5000, a prospective observational cohort of people with head and neck cancer. (48 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Head and neck cancer, Cancer, Audiology and Hazard ratio. His study in the field of Prostate cancer, Myocardial infarction and Disease is also linked to topics like Omega 3 fatty acid. His Head and neck cancer study also includes

  • Proportional hazards model that intertwine with fields like Depressive symptoms, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Depression, Multivariate statistics and Prospective cohort study,
  • Comorbidity which is related to area like Cohort, Body mass index, Confounding, Larynx and Stage,
  • Marital status which connect with Radiation treatment planning.

His work deals with themes such as Longitudinal study, Obesity, Cross-sectional study, Demography and Asthma, which intersect with Cohort. His Body mass index study frequently involves adjacent topics like Cohort study. His Audiology study incorporates themes from Odds ratio and Multilevel model.
