Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

Body mass index, Cohort study, Young adult, Gerontology and Pediatrics are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Body mass index study are interwoven with issues in Twin study, Heritability, Obesity and Confidence interval. His research in Cohort study intersects with topics in Schizophrenia, Intelligence quotient, Hazard ratio, Cohort and Risk factor.

His Young adult study combines topics in areas such as Muscle strength and Early childhood. His research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Global health and Epidemiology in his study of Gerontology. His studies deal with areas such as Gastroenterology, Prospective cohort study, Socioeconomic position and Intellectual disability as well as Pediatrics.

His most cited work include:

  • Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2278 citations)
  • A century of trends in adult human height (1043 citations)
  • Worldwide trends in blood pressure from 1975 to 2015: a pooled analysis of 1479 population-based measurement studies with 19·1 million participants (824 citations)

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

Finn Rasmussen mostly deals with Body mass index, Cohort study, Pediatrics, Obesity and Gerontology. His Body mass index research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Young adult, Birth weight, Confidence interval and Heritability. His work carried out in the field of Cohort study brings together such families of science as Epidemiology, Risk factor, Cohort and Hazard ratio.

His Pediatrics research incorporates themes from Pregnancy and Blood pressure. A large part of his Obesity studies is devoted to Overweight. His study in Gerontology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Odds ratio, Socioeconomic status and Public health.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Body mass index (25.00%)
  • Cohort study (22.67%)
  • Pediatrics (19.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cohort study (22.67%)
  • Radiology (6.78%)
  • Body mass index (25.00%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cohort study, Radiology, Body mass index, Young adult and Gerontology. His Cohort study research incorporates elements of Disability pension, Reference group, Hazard ratio, Mental health and Cohort. His Body mass index research includes elements of Birth weight, Obesity, Zygosity and Heritability.

He is involved in the study of Obesity that focuses on Overweight in particular. His Young adult study incorporates themes from Longitudinal study, Substance abuse and Environmental health. His Gerontology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Global health, Early childhood intervention, Psychological intervention and Pooled analysis.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Worldwide trends in blood pressure from 1975 to 2015: a pooled analysis of 1479 population-based measurement studies with 19·1 million participants (824 citations)
  • Differences in genetic and environmental variation in adult BMI by sex, age, time period, and region: an individual-based pooled analysis of 40 twin cohorts. (56 citations)
  • High BMI in late adolescence predicts future severe liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma: a national, population-based cohort study in 1.2 million men (37 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

His scientific interests lie mostly in Body mass index, Cohort study, Young adult, Obesity and Dizygotic twin. The study incorporates disciplines such as Offspring, Weight gain, Discordant Twin and Heritability in addition to Body mass index. His Cohort study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mental health, Educational attainment and Cohort.

His Young adult study is focused on Gerontology in general. Specifically, his work in Obesity is concerned with the study of Overweight. As a member of one scientific family, Finn Rasmussen mostly works in the field of Overweight, focusing on Incidence and, on occasion, Surgery.
