Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

Angelo Pietrobelli focuses on Obesity, Internal medicine, Body mass index, Endocrinology and Gerontology. The concepts of his Obesity study are interwoven with issues in Observational study, Multivariate analysis and Nutritional status. His work on Weight loss and Mass index as part of general Internal medicine study is frequently connected to Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, Heterozygote advantage and Photon absorptiometry, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

In general Body mass index study, his work on Waist often relates to the realm of Restriction fragment length polymorphism, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Lean body mass, Adipose tissue and Fat mass study in the realm of Endocrinology interacts with subjects such as Adrenergic. His biological study deals with issues like National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which deal with fields such as Cross-sectional study, Classification of obesity and Receiver operating characteristic.

His most cited work include:

  • Waist circumference percentiles in nationally representative samples of African-American, European-American, and Mexican-American children and adolescents. (1101 citations)
  • Body mass index as a measure of adiposity among children and adolescents: A validation study (803 citations)
  • Validity of body mass index compared with other body-composition screening indexes for the assessment of body fatness in children and adolescents (765 citations)

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

Angelo Pietrobelli mainly investigates Obesity, Internal medicine, Body mass index, Endocrinology and Pediatrics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Physical therapy, Gerontology and Environmental health. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cross-sectional study and National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in addition to Gerontology.

His studies deal with areas such as Gastroenterology and Cardiology as well as Internal medicine. In Body mass index, he works on issues like Anthropometry, which are connected to Waist. His Childhood obesity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Intervention and Public health.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Obesity (45.86%)
  • Internal medicine (29.94%)
  • Body mass index (26.43%)

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

  • Obesity (45.86%)
  • Pediatrics (18.15%)
  • Overweight (15.61%)

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

His primary areas of study are Obesity, Pediatrics, Overweight, Internal medicine and Environmental health. His Obesity study incorporates themes from Body mass index, Longitudinal study, Observational study and Disease. His work on Child overweight is typically connected to Maternal health as part of general Body mass index study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His studies in Pediatrics integrate themes in fields like Retrospective cohort study, Intensive care medicine, Obstructive sleep apnea, Safety profile and Physical therapy. His Overweight research includes elements of Classification of obesity, Body volume index, Gerontology, vitamin D deficiency and Mass index. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Lifestyle habits, Endocrinology and Population study.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of COVID-19 Lockdown on Lifestyle Behaviors in Children with Obesity Living in Verona, Italy: A Longitudinal Study. (192 citations)
  • Tri-Ponderal Mass Index vs Body Mass Index in Estimating Body Fat During Adolescence. (75 citations)
  • Diagnosis, treatment and prevention of pediatric obesity: Consensus position statement of the Italian Society for Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology and the Italian Society of Pediatrics (46 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Obesity, Gerontology, Childhood obesity, Overweight and Pregnancy. His work carried out in the field of Obesity brings together such families of science as Body mass index, Longitudinal study, Observational study, Sleep time and Red meat. The Child overweight research Angelo Pietrobelli does as part of his general Body mass index study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Maternal health, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Angelo Pietrobelli has included themes like Clinical nutrition, Neurocognitive, Cognition and Malnutrition in his Gerontology study. His study in Childhood obesity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Breastfeeding and Environmental health. His Overweight research includes themes of Body adiposity index, Classification of obesity, Body volume index, Mass index and Anthropometry.
