Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Endocrinology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Physical fitness, Cardiorespiratory fitness, Physical therapy, Gerontology and Internal medicine. His Physical fitness study incorporates themes from Test, Obesity, Cross-sectional study, Evidence-based medicine and Physical exercise. The concepts of his Cardiorespiratory fitness study are interwoven with issues in Body mass index, Overweight, Multi-stage fitness test, Percentile and Physical strength.

His work in the fields of Exercise physiology overlaps with other areas such as Objective data. His work on Young adult as part of general Gerontology research is frequently linked to Child health, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Endocrinology and Cardiovascular fitness.

His most cited work include:

  • Physical fitness in childhood and adolescence: a powerful marker of health (1331 citations)
  • Predictive validity of health-related fitness in youth: a systematic review (503 citations)
  • Accelerometer Data Collection and Processing Criteria to Assess Physical Activity and Other Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Practical Considerations (478 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cardiorespiratory fitness, Physical therapy, Physical fitness, Obesity and Body mass index. Specifically, his work in Cardiorespiratory fitness is concerned with the study of Shuttle run test. His Physical therapy research incorporates elements of Reliability, Randomized controlled trial and Sedentary time.

His studies deal with areas such as Test, Anthropometry, Physical strength and Gerontology as well as Physical fitness. He works in the field of Obesity, focusing on Overweight in particular. Francisco B. Ortega interconnects Cross-sectional study and Pediatrics in the investigation of issues within Body mass index.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cardiorespiratory fitness (50.29%)
  • Physical therapy (46.91%)
  • Physical fitness (44.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Overweight (28.68%)
  • Obesity (37.79%)
  • Cardiorespiratory fitness (50.29%)

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

His primary areas of study are Overweight, Obesity, Cardiorespiratory fitness, Physical fitness and Body mass index. His Overweight study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Academic achievement and Aerobic exercise. His study in Obesity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cross-sectional study, Anthropometry, Cognition and Clinical psychology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fat mass, Stepwise regression, Gerontology and Risk factor. The subject of his Physical fitness research is within the realm of Physical therapy. His study looks at the relationship between Body mass index and topics such as Birth weight, which overlap with Low birth weight.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • World Health Organization 2020 guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour (190 citations)
  • Role of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in the Mental Health of Preschoolers, Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. (124 citations)
  • Role of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in the Mental Health of Preschoolers, Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. (124 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Obesity

Francisco B. Ortega mainly investigates Cardiorespiratory fitness, Overweight, Obesity, Gerontology and Physical strength. Cardiorespiratory fitness is a subfield of Physical therapy that Francisco B. Ortega explores. His Overweight research integrates issues from Academic achievement and Physical medicine and rehabilitation.

His research investigates the connection between Obesity and topics such as Aerobic exercise that intersect with problems in Working memory and Alpha. As a part of the same scientific family, Francisco B. Ortega mostly works in the field of Gerontology, focusing on Cohort study and, on occasion, Proportional hazards model, Hazard ratio, Confounding and Cognition. The study incorporates disciplines such as Endocrinology and Standing long jump in addition to Internal medicine.
