Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

His scientific interests lie mostly in Optometry, Ophthalmology, Visual impairment, Demography and Eye disease. As a part of the same scientific family, Hugh R. Taylor mostly works in the field of Optometry, focusing on Public health and, on occasion, Rural health and Referral. The various areas that he examines in his Ophthalmology study include Sunlight and Confidence interval.

His Visual impairment research incorporates themes from Diabetic retinopathy, Epidemiology, Refractive error, Visual acuity and Glaucoma. The concepts of his Demography study are interwoven with issues in Prevalence, Incidence, Gerontology, Global health and Disease burden. His studies deal with areas such as Disability-adjusted life year, Mortality rate, Life expectancy, Years of potential life lost and Cause of death as well as Gerontology.

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)
  • Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 291 diseases and injuries in 21 regions, 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (5887 citations)
  • Years lived with disability (YLDs) for 1160 sequelae of 289 diseases and injuries 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (4886 citations)

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

Hugh R. Taylor mainly investigates Optometry, Ophthalmology, Trachoma, Visual impairment and Surgery. His Optometry research integrates issues from Diabetic retinopathy, Indigenous, Demography, Public health and Glaucoma. Hugh R. Taylor combines subjects such as Cross-sectional study, Odds ratio and Global health with his study of Demography.

His work deals with themes such as Chlamydia trachomatis, Epidemiology, Hygiene and Environmental health, which intersect with Trachoma. The study incorporates disciplines such as Visual acuity, Gerontology and Macular degeneration in addition to Visual impairment. The Surgery study combines topics in areas such as Keratitis, Ivermectin, Internal medicine, Risk factor and Onchocerciasis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Optometry (30.36%)
  • Ophthalmology (23.71%)
  • Trachoma (16.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Optometry (30.36%)
  • Demography (12.49%)
  • Visual acuity (15.35%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Optometry, Demography, Visual acuity, Indigenous and Visual impairment. His Optometry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Near vision, Trichiasis, Trachoma and Family medicine. His Demography research includes themes of Global health, Life expectancy, Epidemiology and Gerontology.

His Global health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Disease and Disease burden. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Meta-analysis, Pediatrics and Cataract surgery. His work in Visual impairment covers topics such as Diabetic retinopathy which are related to areas like Ophthalmology and Retinopathy.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 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 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)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Surgery

His primary areas of study are Demography, Visual impairment, Global health, Visual acuity and Optometry. His studies in Demography integrate themes in fields like Cross-sectional study, Life expectancy, Indigenous and Gerontology. His study in Visual impairment is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Diabetic retinopathy, Epidemiology, Macular degeneration, Refractive error and Presbyopia.

His research integrates issues of Millennium Development Goals, Disease, Neglected tropical diseases and Environmental health in his study of Global health. His Visual acuity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Meta-analysis and Pediatrics. His Optometry study combines topics in areas such as Eye disease, Health care and Retrospective cohort study.
