Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Statistics

Her primary areas of study are Eye disease, Pediatrics, Ophthalmology, Glaucoma and Visual acuity. The concepts of her Eye disease study are interwoven with issues in Visual impairment, Optometry, Epidemiology and Confidence interval. The Pediatrics study combines topics in areas such as Vitamin, Cohort study and Infant mortality.

Her Glaucoma research incorporates themes from Visual field, Intraocular pressure and Optic nerve. Her Gerontology research includes themes of Global health and Body mass index. Her studies in Global health integrate themes in fields like Overweight, Obesity and Underweight.

Her most cited work include:

  • Maternal and child undernutrition and overweight in low-income and middle-income countries (3913 citations)
  • Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults (2616 citations)
  • Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2521 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Pediatrics, Ophthalmology, Eye disease, Glaucoma and Infant mortality. Her Pediatrics research incorporates elements of Odds ratio, Vitamin, Cohort study and Cross-sectional study. Her Eye disease study incorporates themes from Epidemiology and Visual acuity.

Joanne Katz has included themes like Incidence and Public health in her Epidemiology study. Joanne Katz interconnects Optometry, Visual field and Intraocular pressure in the investigation of issues within Glaucoma. Her Infant mortality study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mortality rate, Small for gestational age and Obstetrics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Pediatrics (38.11%)
  • Ophthalmology (16.99%)
  • Eye disease (16.75%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Pediatrics (38.11%)
  • Environmental health (6.80%)
  • Low birth weight (8.01%)

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

Her main research concerns Pediatrics, Environmental health, Low birth weight, Obstetrics and Vaccination. She undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Pediatrics and Pneumococcal carriage through her research. The various areas that she examines in her Environmental health study include Psychological intervention, Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys and Scale.

Her Low birth weight research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gestational age, Small for gestational age and Cohort study. She has researched Obstetrics in several fields, including Periodontitis, Logistic regression, Urinary incontinence and Reproductive age. Her studies deal with areas such as Bleeding on probing, Incidence and Infant mortality as well as Relative risk.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Height and body-mass index trajectories of school-aged children and adolescents from 1985 to 2019 in 200 countries and territories: a pooled analysis of 2181 population-based studies with 65 million participants (46 citations)
  • Heterogeneous contributions of change in population distribution of body mass index to change in obesity and underweight (44 citations)
  • Contributions of mean and shape of blood pressure distribution to worldwide trends and variations in raised blood pressure: a pooled analysis of 1018 population-based measurement studies with 88.6 million participants NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC) Members are listed at the end of the paper (32 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Statistics

Joanne Katz mostly deals with Environmental health, Gestational age, Relative risk, Low birth weight and Epidemiology. Her study on Gestational age also encompasses disciplines like

  • Vaccine efficacy and related Gestation and Obstetrics,
  • Randomized controlled trial that intertwine with fields like Toxicology. Her Relative risk research includes themes of Respiratory virus, Respiratory system and Incidence.

Her research in Epidemiology intersects with topics in Body mass index, Young adult, Disease burden and Malnutrition. Her Body mass index research focuses on Obesity and how it connects with Global health. As a member of one scientific family, Joanne Katz mostly works in the field of Birth weight, focusing on Infant mortality and, on occasion, Pediatrics.
