Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Cancer

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Body mass index, Vitamin D and neurology and Obesity. His work deals with themes such as Gastroenterology, Placebo and Vitamin E, which intersect with Internal medicine. His C-reactive protein research extends to the thematically linked field of Endocrinology.

His Vitamin D and neurology research includes elements of Parathyroid hormone, Osteoporosis and Osteopenia. His study focuses on the intersection of Obesity and fields such as Percentile with connections in the field of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and Overweight. His study on Cholecalciferol is often connected to Offspring as part of broader study in Vitamin.

His most cited work include:

  • Long-term morbidity and mortality of overweight adolescents. A follow-up of the Harvard Growth Study of 1922 to 1935. (2013 citations)
  • Effect of Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation on Bone Density in Men and Women 65 Years of Age or Older (1963 citations)
  • Reference data for obesity: 85th and 95th percentiles of body mass index (wt/ht2) and triceps skinfold thickness. (1225 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vitamin, Gerontology and Body mass index. His study in the field of Vitamin D and neurology also crosses realms of Ascorbic acid. His work in Endocrinology tackles topics such as Calcium which are related to areas like Liter.

The Vitamin study combines topics in areas such as Vitamin B12, Micronutrient and B vitamins. His Body mass index study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Obesity and Resting energy expenditure. As part of his studies on Obesity, he often connects relevant areas like Percentile.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (51.84%)
  • Endocrinology (42.04%)
  • Vitamin (12.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2017)?

  • Internal medicine (51.84%)
  • Endocrinology (42.04%)
  • Gerontology (10.20%)

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

Gerard E. Dallal mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Gerontology, Vitamin and Body mass index. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Gastroenterology, Placebo and Micronutrient. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Calcium metabolism, Calcium and Hazard ratio.

The various areas that Gerard E. Dallal examines in his Gerontology study include Cross-sectional study, Overweight, Obesity and Cognition. His Vitamin research focuses on C-reactive protein and how it relates to Intention-to-treat analysis and Multivitamin. His work in the fields of Body mass index, such as Waist, overlaps with other areas such as Circumference.

Between 2008 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • 25-Hydroxyvitamin D, dementia, and cerebrovascular pathology in elders receiving home services (231 citations)
  • Vitamin K supplementation and progression of coronary artery calcium in older men and women (164 citations)
  • Vitamin D Is Associated With Cognitive Function in Elders Receiving Home Health Services (160 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vitamin, Calcium and Body mass index. In general Internal medicine, his work in Hazard ratio is often linked to Refined grains linking many areas of study. His Endocrinology research incorporates themes from Food group, Proportional hazards model and Generalizability theory.

His work in the fields of Cholecalciferol overlaps with other areas such as Vascular dementia, Cognitive decline and Geriatrics. His Calcium study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Excretion and Metabolism. His Childhood growth, Childhood obesity and Overweight study in the realm of Body mass index interacts with subjects such as Disease control.
