Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Air pollution
  • Statistics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Air pollution, Environmental health, Particulates, Pollution and Epidemiology. His Air pollution study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Air quality index, Poisson regression and Animal science. His Environmental health research incorporates elements of Prospective cohort study, Asthma, Respiratory system and Public health.

His research in Particulates intersects with topics in Adverse health effect and Coal. Douglas W. Dockery combines subjects such as Hypoxemia, Pneumonia and Risk factor with his study of Epidemiology. His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Odds ratio and Pediatrics.

His most cited work include:

  • An Association between Air Pollution and Mortality in Six U.S. Cities (6121 citations)
  • Health effects of fine particulate air pollution: lines that connect (4473 citations)
  • Particulate air pollution as a predictor of mortality in a prospective study of U.S. adults. (2421 citations)

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

Douglas W. Dockery mostly deals with Air pollution, Environmental health, Particulates, Confidence interval and Pulmonary function testing. His research integrates issues of Air quality index, Pollutant, Pollution and Environmental protection in his study of Air pollution. The Environmental health study which covers Epidemiology that intersects with Risk factor.

His Particulates research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ozone and Coal. The various areas that Douglas W. Dockery examines in his Confidence interval study include Odds ratio, Animal science, Poisson regression and Wheeze. Douglas W. Dockery has researched Pulmonary function testing in several fields, including Longitudinal study, Surgery, Passive smoking, FEV1/FVC ratio and Spirometry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Air pollution (35.86%)
  • Environmental health (32.07%)
  • Particulates (17.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Air pollution (35.86%)
  • Environmental health (32.07%)
  • Particulates (17.59%)

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

Douglas W. Dockery focuses on Air pollution, Environmental health, Particulates, Environmental exposure and Life expectancy. His Air pollution research incorporates themes from Environmental engineering, Environmental protection, Environmental planning, Air quality index and Bills of mortality. His Environmental health study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Prospective data, Preterm delivery, Air pollutants and Toxicology.

In his work, Nitrate is strongly intertwined with Pollutant, which is a subfield of Particulates. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Acute exposure, Vitamin C, Physiology and Confounding. His Life expectancy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Regression analysis, Natural resource economics, Fine particulate and Particulate pollution.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Passive smoking, gas cooking, and respiratory health of children living in six cities. (268 citations)
  • Effect of air pollution control on life expectancy in the United States: an analysis of 545 U.S. counties for the period from 2000 to 2007. (236 citations)
  • "What We Breathe Impacts Our Health: Improving Understanding of the Link between Air Pollution and Health" (175 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Pathology

Douglas W. Dockery spends much of his time researching Particulates, Air pollution, Environmental health, Life expectancy and Environmental exposure. His Particulates research integrates issues from Desert dust, Outbreak, Pollutant and Animal science. He performs integrative study on Air pollution and Vog.

He has included themes like Mortality rate, Emergency medicine, Health indicator, COPD and Black smoke in his Environmental health study. His work deals with themes such as Urban health, Air pollutants, Coal, Expectancy theory and Fine particulate, which intersect with Life expectancy. Douglas W. Dockery interconnects Internal medicine, Acute exposure, Atrial fibrillation, Cardiology and Pediatrics in the investigation of issues within Environmental exposure.
