Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Obesity
  • Surgery

His scientific interests lie mostly in Obesity, Weight loss, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Overweight. His Obesity research incorporates elements of Body mass index, Gerontology, Diabetes mellitus, Weight gain and Physical exercise. The concepts of his Weight loss study are interwoven with issues in Demography, Randomized controlled trial, Physical therapy, Type 2 diabetes and Depression.

His Balance research extends to Internal medicine, which is thematically connected. The study incorporates disciplines such as Meal and Animal science in addition to Endocrinology. His Overweight study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dieting, Food science and Social environment.

His most cited work include:

  • Obesity : Preventing and managing the global epidemic (7120 citations)
  • Clinical guidelines on the identification, evaluation, and treatment of overweight and obesity in adults: Executive summary (2372 citations)
  • Environmental contributions to the obesity epidemic. (1919 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Obesity, Internal medicine, Weight loss, Endocrinology and Overweight. His Obesity study incorporates themes from Body mass index, Gerontology, Environmental health and Body weight, Weight gain. His study involves Calorie, Physical exercise, Colorectal cancer, Aerobic exercise and Insulin resistance, a branch of Internal medicine.

He combines subjects such as Demography, Physical therapy, Randomized controlled trial and Animal science with his study of Weight loss. His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Energy balance and Carbohydrate. His research combines Type 2 diabetes and Overweight.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Obesity (38.95%)
  • Internal medicine (34.99%)
  • Weight loss (28.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Obesity (38.95%)
  • Weight loss (28.11%)
  • Internal medicine (34.99%)

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

His primary areas of study are Obesity, Weight loss, Internal medicine, Overweight and Physical therapy. His studies in Obesity integrate themes in fields like Body mass index, Calorie, Gerontology, Environmental health and Public health. James O. Hill focuses mostly in the field of Weight loss, narrowing it down to matters related to Animal science and, in some cases, Energy balance.

James O. Hill interconnects Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine. His Overweight research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Weight gain and Type 2 diabetes. His Physical therapy research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Intervention, Cognition and Sedentary lifestyle.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Association of the magnitude of weight loss and changes in physical fitness with long-term cardiovascular disease outcomes in overweight or obese people with type 2 diabetes: a post-hoc analysis of the Look AHEAD randomised clinical trial. (212 citations)
  • Low levels of physical activity are associated with dysregulation of energy intake and fat mass gain over 1 year (82 citations)
  • Physical fitness and academic performance in youth: A systematic review (76 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Obesity

James O. Hill mostly deals with Obesity, Weight loss, Overweight, Internal medicine and Type 2 diabetes. The Obesity study combines topics in areas such as Neurocognitive, Gerontology and Regular exercise. His work carried out in the field of Weight loss brings together such families of science as Demography, Randomized controlled trial, Exercise physiology and Animal science.

His work deals with themes such as Energy balance and Environmental health, which intersect with Overweight. His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Gynecology in his study of Internal medicine. His study in Type 2 diabetes is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physical therapy and Clinical diabetes.
