Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Obesity
  • Public health

Her main research concerns Pediatrics, Obesity, Body mass index, Overweight and Childhood obesity. Her Pediatrics research includes themes of Prospective cohort study, Birth weight and Cohort. Her research in Obesity intersects with topics in Odds ratio, Cohort study and Intensive care medicine.

Many of her studies involve connections with topics such as Weight gain and Body mass index. She combines subjects such as Psychological intervention, Psychiatry, Management of obesity, Randomized controlled trial and Public health with her study of Overweight. The concepts of her Childhood obesity study are interwoven with issues in Gestational diabetes, Early childhood and Gerontology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Recommendations for Treatment of Child and Adolescent Overweight and Obesity (675 citations)
  • Gestational weight gain and child adiposity at age 3 years. (644 citations)
  • Clinician support and psychosocial risk factors associated with breastfeeding discontinuation. (400 citations)

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

Obesity, Childhood obesity, Body mass index, Pediatrics and Overweight are her primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Randomized controlled trial and Early childhood in addition to Obesity. Elsie M. Taveras has included themes like Psychological intervention, Gerontology, Environmental health, Intervention and Public health in her Childhood obesity study.

Her studies in Body mass index integrate themes in fields like Weight gain, Prospective cohort study, Cohort and Confidence interval. Her Pediatrics research includes elements of Odds ratio, Birth weight and Gestational age. Her study ties her expertise on Anthropometry together with the subject of Overweight.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Obesity (44.86%)
  • Childhood obesity (36.30%)
  • Body mass index (35.62%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Childhood obesity (36.30%)
  • Obesity (44.86%)
  • Body mass index (35.62%)

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

Elsie M. Taveras focuses on Childhood obesity, Obesity, Body mass index, Psychological intervention and Gerontology. Her Childhood obesity research integrates issues from Observational study, Supplemental nutrition, Environmental health and Motivational interviewing, Randomized controlled trial. In her study, Gestation is inextricably linked to Weight gain, which falls within the broad field of Obesity.

The Overweight and Weight management research she does as part of her general Body mass index study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Percentile, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Her studies examine the connections between Psychological intervention and genetics, as well as such issues in Intervention, with regards to Public health. Her Gerontology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both MEDLINE and Health promotion.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Actigraphy-based sleep estimation in adolescents and adults: a comparison with polysomnography using two scoring algorithms. (66 citations)
  • Association of sleep disturbances with obesity, insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome (37 citations)
  • Objective Sleep Characteristics and Cardiometabolic Health in Young Adolescents. (32 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Obesity
  • Public health

Elsie M. Taveras focuses on Obesity, Childhood obesity, Gerontology, Body mass index and Psychological intervention. Overweight and Waist are among the areas of Obesity where the researcher is concentrating her efforts. Her Childhood obesity research incorporates elements of Randomized controlled trial and Family medicine.

The various areas that she examines in her Gerontology study include Racial/ethnic difference, MEDLINE and Health promotion. The Body mass index study which covers Cohort that intersects with Clinical nutrition and Insulin resistance. Her Psychological intervention research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Intervention and Behavior change.
