Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Pregnancy
  • Diabetes mellitus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Body mass index, Pregnancy, Internal medicine, Prospective cohort study and Cohort study. Her Body mass index research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Odds ratio, Relative risk, Pediatrics and Risk factor. Her study in Pregnancy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physiology and Obstetrics.

She has included themes like Gastroenterology and Endocrinology in her Internal medicine study. Her Prospective cohort study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Incidence, Myocardial infarction, Cohort and Breast feeding. Janet W. Rich-Edwards works mostly in the field of Cohort study, limiting it down to topics relating to Surgery and, in certain cases, Confidence interval.

Her most cited work include:

  • A prospective study of walking as compared with vigorous exercise in the prevention of coronary heart disease in women. (892 citations)
  • Walking Compared With Vigorous Physical Activity and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Women: A Prospective Study (807 citations)
  • Birth Weight and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review (761 citations)

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

Janet W. Rich-Edwards mostly deals with Pregnancy, Obstetrics, Prospective cohort study, Internal medicine and Body mass index. Her Pregnancy study combines topics in areas such as Disease, Cohort study, Pediatrics and Confidence interval. Her Obstetrics research includes themes of Odds ratio, Epidemiology, Premature birth, Gynecology and Hazard ratio.

Her Prospective cohort study study also includes fields such as

  • Relative risk, which have a strong connection to Lower risk,
  • Incidence together with Breast cancer. Her research integrates issues of Endocrinology and Gestation in her study of Internal medicine. Her Body mass index study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Obesity, Type 2 diabetes, Cohort and Risk factor.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Pregnancy (62.55%)
  • Obstetrics (47.19%)
  • Prospective cohort study (31.84%)

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

  • Pregnancy (62.55%)
  • Obstetrics (47.19%)
  • Disease (21.72%)

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

Janet W. Rich-Edwards mainly investigates Pregnancy, Obstetrics, Disease, Prospective cohort study and Hazard ratio. Her Pregnancy study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Internal medicine. Her work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Endocrinology and Marital status.

Her work deals with themes such as Body mass index, Gestational age, Gestational hypertension, Type 2 diabetes and Risk factor, which intersect with Obstetrics. Her research in Prospective cohort study intersects with topics in Epidemiology, Environmental health, Cause of death, Infertility and Menstrual cycle. Her Hazard ratio research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Proportional hazards model and Cohort study.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Risk of COVID-19 among front-line health-care workers and the general community: a prospective cohort study. (725 citations)
  • Risk of symptomatic Covid-19 among frontline healthcare workers (70 citations)
  • Clinical Advances in Sex- and Gender-Informed Medicine to Improve the Health of All: A Review. (49 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Pregnancy
  • Diabetes mellitus

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Pregnancy, Obstetrics, Prospective cohort study, Hazard ratio and Disease. She interconnects Relative risk, Nurses' Health Study and Randomized controlled trial in the investigation of issues within Pregnancy. Her Obstetrics research includes elements of Odds ratio, Gestation, Premature birth, Spina bifida and Family history.

Her Prospective cohort study research incorporates elements of Cohort study, Cause of death, Cohort and Environmental health. The study incorporates disciplines such as Observational study, Mortality rate, Demography, Confidence interval and Menstrual cycle in addition to Cohort study. Janet W. Rich-Edwards combines subjects such as Body mass index, Proportional hazards model and Type 2 diabetes with her study of Hazard ratio.
