Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

Hywel C. Williams mostly deals with Atopic dermatitis, Dermatology, Epidemiology, Pediatrics and Demography. He combines subjects such as SCORAD, Randomized controlled trial, Atopy, Evidence-based medicine and Severity of illness with his study of Atopic dermatitis. His research integrates issues of Cross-sectional study, El Niño, Disease and Allergy in his study of Epidemiology.

Hywel C. Williams has included themes like Developing country, Years of potential life lost and Gerontology in his Demography study. His Years of potential life lost study incorporates themes from Global health, Cancer and Risk factor. His research investigates the connection between Global health and topics such as Environmental health that intersect with issues in Population health.

His most cited work include:

  • A comparative risk assessment of burden of disease and injury attributable to 67 risk factors and risk factor clusters in 21 regions, 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (7776 citations)
  • 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)

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

His main research concerns Dermatology, Atopic dermatitis, Randomized controlled trial, Clinical trial and Pediatrics. His research on Dermatology frequently links to adjacent areas such as MEDLINE. In his study, El Niño is strongly linked to Epidemiology, which falls under the umbrella field of Atopic dermatitis.

Hywel C. Williams interconnects Psychological intervention, Physical therapy and Quality of life in the investigation of issues within Randomized controlled trial. His Clinical trial research integrates issues from Skin cancer, Family medicine, Intensive care medicine, Alternative medicine and Severity of illness. Hywel C. Williams regularly links together related areas like Demography in his Pediatrics studies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dermatology (29.66%)
  • Atopic dermatitis (25.22%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (19.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Atopic dermatitis (25.22%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (19.72%)
  • Clinical trial (16.70%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Atopic dermatitis, Randomized controlled trial, Clinical trial, Dermatology and MEDLINE. His Atopic dermatitis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Food allergy, Epidemiology, Asthma and Pediatrics. His Randomized controlled trial research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Psychological intervention, Quality of life and Confidence interval.

The various areas that Hywel C. Williams examines in his Clinical trial study include Clinical research, Skin cancer, Systematic review, Family medicine and Alternative medicine. His Systematic review study combines topics in areas such as Quality and Intensive care medicine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Guideline and Set.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 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)
  • Global, Regional, and National Cancer Incidence, Mortality, Years of Life Lost, Years Lived With Disability, and Disability-Adjusted Life-Years for 29 Cancer Groups, 1990 to 2016: A Systematic Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study. (2660 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) for 333 diseases and injuries and healthy life expectancy (HALE) for 195 countries and territories, 1990–2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016 (1628 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Clinical trial, MEDLINE, Atopic dermatitis, Dermatology and Randomized controlled trial. His study in the field of Eczema Area and Severity Index also crosses realms of Diprobase. His work in the fields of Erythema and Skin ulcer overlaps with other areas such as Skin barrier and Structure and function.

The concepts of his Randomized controlled trial study are interwoven with issues in Relative risk, Physical therapy and Severity of illness. The Asthma study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology and Disease. His Environmental health study also includes

  • Reproductive health which connect with Life expectancy, Disease burden, Gerontology and Global health,
  • Neglected tropical diseases that intertwine with fields like Years of potential life lost.
