Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Diabetes mellitus

Eric L. Ding spends much of his time researching Global health, Years of potential life lost, Life expectancy, Gerontology and Mortality rate. In his research on the topic of Global health, Coronary heart disease and Prospective cohort study is strongly related with Epidemiology. His research in Years of potential life lost intersects with topics in Relative risk, Risk factor, Population health and Environmental health.

The concepts of his Risk factor study are interwoven with issues in Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology, Obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Eric L. Ding has included themes like Disability-adjusted life year, Cause of death and Epidemiological transition in his Life expectancy study. His Gerontology research incorporates elements of Incidence and Public health.

His most cited work include:

  • 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 prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6893 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 areas of study are Internal medicine, Gerontology, Endocrinology, Environmental health and Global health. His Internal medicine research integrates issues from Type 2 diabetes and Cardiology. His study explores the link between Gerontology and topics such as National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey that cross with problems in Diet quality.

His studies deal with areas such as Reproductive health, Disease burden and Risk factor as well as Environmental health. Eric L. Ding combines subjects such as Life expectancy, Mortality rate and Pediatrics with his study of Global health. In general Life expectancy, his work in Years of potential life lost is often linked to Quality-adjusted life year linking many areas of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (45.78%)
  • Gerontology (28.92%)
  • Endocrinology (28.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Global health (16.27%)
  • Life expectancy (12.65%)
  • Environmental health (22.89%)

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

His main research concerns Global health, Life expectancy, Environmental health, Mortality rate and Gerontology. His Global health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pediatrics and Infant mortality. The Years of potential life lost research Eric L. Ding does as part of his general Life expectancy study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Quality-adjusted life year, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His Years of potential life lost study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Disability-adjusted life year, Verbal autopsy and Epidemiology. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Reproductive health, Confounding Factors, Disease burden and Risk factor. The various areas that Eric L. Ding examines in his Gerontology study include Meta-Analysis as Topic, Meta-analysis and MEDLINE.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national life expectancy, all-cause mortality, and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes of death, 1980–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 (3027 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 310 diseases and injuries, 1990–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 (2980 citations)
  • 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 (2465 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Pathology

His primary areas of investigation include Life expectancy, Global health, Mortality rate, Years of potential life lost and Gerontology. In his research, Comorbidity, Depression, Public health and Incidence is intimately related to Cause of death, which falls under the overarching field of Life expectancy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Young adult, Pediatrics and Environmental health.

Eric L. Ding has researched Environmental health in several fields, including Population ageing, Relative risk, Disease burden and Risk factor. His Mortality rate research includes themes of Compensation law of mortality and Child mortality. His Years of potential life lost research incorporates themes from Disability-adjusted life year and Epidemiology, Epidemiological transition.
