Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Public health
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Mortality rate

G Anil Kumar mostly deals with Global health, Years of potential life lost, Demography, Life expectancy and Mortality rate. G Anil Kumar combines subjects such as Verbal autopsy and Environmental health with his study of Years of potential life lost. G Anil Kumar interconnects Relative risk, Physical therapy and Population health in the investigation of issues within Environmental health.

The Demography study combines topics in areas such as Disease burden, Cause of death, Gerontology and Maternal death. Much of his study explores Life expectancy relationship to Epidemiological transition. In his research, Public health and Depression is intimately related to Comorbidity, which falls under the overarching field of Mortality rate.

His most cited work include:

  • 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)
  • Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4452 citations)
  • 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)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Demography, Global health, Environmental health, Mortality rate and Life expectancy. His studies deal with areas such as Verbal autopsy, Cause of death, Gerontology and Burden of disease, Public health as well as Demography. His Global health research also works with subjects such as

  • Per capita which intersects with area such as Gross domestic product,
  • Child mortality that intertwine with fields like Infant mortality.

His Mortality rate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Uncertainty interval, Young adult, Prevalence, Breast cancer and Cancer prevention. His study of Years of potential life lost is a part of Life expectancy. His work carried out in the field of Years of potential life lost brings together such families of science as Disability-adjusted life year and Population health.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (48.18%)
  • Global health (37.27%)
  • Environmental health (32.73%)

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

  • Demography (48.18%)
  • Mortality rate (27.27%)
  • Years of potential life lost (26.36%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Demography, Mortality rate, Years of potential life lost, Global health and Environmental health. His Demography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Burden of disease and Cancer mortality. His Years of potential life lost research is classified as research in Life expectancy.

His Life expectancy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Disease burden and Population health. His studies in Global health integrate themes in fields like Population ageing, Child mortality, Emergency medicine and Traumatic brain injury. His Environmental health research includes themes of Low income and middle income countries and Public health.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national burden of traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury, 1990-2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of disease Study 2016 (248 citations)
  • Global burden of 369 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (224 citations)
  • Global burden of 369 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (224 citations)

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

  • Public health
  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Mortality rate

G Anil Kumar spends much of his time researching Years of potential life lost, Mortality rate, Global health, Life expectancy and Demography. His research links Environmental health with Years of potential life lost. His Environmental health research integrates issues from Relative risk, Public health and Malnutrition.

His biological study deals with issues like Cause of death, which deal with fields such as Disability-adjusted life year, COPD and Fertility. His Global health research incorporates themes from Population ageing, Traumatic brain injury and Emergency medicine. His Life expectancy study incorporates themes from Disease burden and Population health.
