Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Public health

His primary areas of study are Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Demography, Environmental health, Epidemiology and Public health. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Substance abuse, Immunology and Drug, Drug injection. His Demography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Global health, Verbal autopsy, Gerontology and Heroin.

His biological study deals with issues like Years of potential life lost, which deal with fields such as Disability-adjusted life year, Epidemiological transition, Population health, Disease burden and Communicable disease. The concepts of his Environmental health study are interwoven with issues in Relative risk, Law enforcement, Cohort and Risk factor. The various areas that Don C. Des Jarlais examines in his Epidemiology study include Viral disease, Hepatitis C, Virology and Incidence.

His most cited work include:

  • Global and regional mortality from 235 causes of death for 20 age groups in 1990 and 2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (8830 citations)
  • A comparative risk assessment of burden of disease and injury attributable to 67 risk factors and risk factor clusters in 21 regions, 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (7776 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 301 acute and chronic diseases and injuries in 188 countries, 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6156 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Public health, Drug, Environmental health and Demography. His research in Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome intersects with topics in Epidemiology, Gerontology, Immunology, Family medicine and Substance abuse. His work in Public health tackles topics such as Syringe which are related to areas like Surgery and Syringe-Exchange Programs.

His Drug study combines topics in areas such as Intensive care medicine and Virology. Within one scientific family, Don C. Des Jarlais focuses on topics pertaining to Psychological intervention under Environmental health, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Intervention. The Demography study which covers Global health that intersects with Life expectancy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (37.48%)
  • Public health (24.76%)
  • Drug (21.12%)

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

  • Environmental health (22.52%)
  • Demography (22.10%)
  • Public health (24.76%)

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

Don C. Des Jarlais spends much of his time researching Environmental health, Demography, Public health, Psychological intervention and Global health. He works mostly in the field of Environmental health, limiting it down to topics relating to Substance abuse and, in certain cases, Drug injection, as a part of the same area of interest. The Demography study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology, Ethnic group, Incidence and Gerontology.

His Public health study incorporates themes from Treatment as prevention, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Family medicine. His work focuses on many connections between Psychological intervention and other disciplines, such as Heroin, that overlap with his field of interest in Needle sharing and Methadone maintenance. His studies in Global health integrate themes in fields like Index, Life expectancy and Pediatrics.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 301 acute and chronic diseases and injuries in 188 countries, 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6156 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4452 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national age-sex specific all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 240 causes of death, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4387 citations)

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

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Public health

His scientific interests lie mostly in Demography, Global health, Environmental health, Life expectancy and Public health. His Demography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Verbal autopsy, Fertility, Incidence and Gerontology. His Environmental health research includes elements of Relative risk, Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Substance abuse, Risk assessment and Risk factor.

He interconnects Communicable disease and Disease burden in the investigation of issues within Life expectancy. His Public health research includes themes of Index and Family medicine. His study looks at the relationship between Mortality rate and fields such as Epidemiology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
