Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Global health, Cohort study, Epidemiology and Cohort. Her study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology and Oncology. Her Global health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gerontology, Environmental health, Mortality rate and Life expectancy, Years of potential life lost.

Elisabete Weiderpass combines subjects such as Relative risk and Risk factor with her study of Cohort study. As a part of the same scientific family, Elisabete Weiderpass mostly works in the field of Epidemiology, focusing on Incidence and, on occasion, Stroke and Adenocarcinoma. Her biological study deals with issues like Gynecology, which deal with fields such as Endometrial cancer, Obstetrics, Overweight, Case-control study and Cervical cancer.

Her most cited work include:

  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 328 diseases and injuries for 195 countries, 1990–2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016 (8226 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (7394 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 (4695 citations)

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

Internal medicine, Cohort, Prospective cohort study, Cancer and Cohort study are her primary areas of study. Her study looks at the intersection of Internal medicine and topics like Oncology with Ovarian cancer. The concepts of her Cohort study are interwoven with issues in Gynecology, Environmental health and Confidence interval.

In her research on the topic of Prospective cohort study, Obesity is strongly related with Body mass index. Her research integrates issues of Surgery, Lung cancer, Incidence and Risk factor in her study of Cancer. Her Cohort study research integrates issues from Epidemiology and Gerontology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (45.40%)
  • Cohort (29.36%)
  • Prospective cohort study (28.05%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (45.40%)
  • European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (22.70%)
  • Cohort (29.36%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition, Cohort, Prospective cohort study and Oncology. Her work in Cohort addresses subjects such as Body mass index, which are connected to disciplines such as Obesity, Weight gain and Endometrial cancer. Her Prospective cohort study course of study focuses on Cohort study and Epidemiology, Breast cancer and Lower risk.

The various areas that she examines in her Oncology study include Ovarian cancer, Disease and Lymphoma. Her research investigates the link between Hazard ratio and topics such as Environmental health that cross with problems in Confounding. Her Cancer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lung cancer, Incidence and Risk factor.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Estimates of Incidence and Mortality of Cervical Cancer in 2018: A Worldwide Analysis (635 citations)
  • Association of plasma biomarkers of fruit and vegetable intake with incident type 2 diabetes: EPIC-InterAct case-cohort study in eight European countries (57 citations)
  • Genome-wide Association Analysis in Humans Links Nucleotide Metabolism to Leukocyte Telomere Length (34 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Her primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition, Prospective cohort study, Cohort study and Cohort. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology. Her studies deal with areas such as Bladder cancer, Epidemiology, Weight change, Nomogram and Breast cancer as well as Cohort study.

Her Breast cancer research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Intersectoral Collaboration, Global health, Health care and Mortality rate, Standardized mortality ratio. Her studies in Cancer integrate themes in fields like Obesity, Incidence, Disease and Risk factor. Her Hazard ratio study incorporates themes from Adenocarcinoma, Reproductive health, Gerontology and Environmental health.
