Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Disease

John Britton focuses on Asthma, Internal medicine, Odds ratio, Immunology and Wheeze. The study incorporates disciplines such as Anesthesia, Placebo, Surgery and Allergy in addition to Asthma. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Physical therapy and Vitamin E.

His Odds ratio research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Retrospective cohort study, Confidence interval, Meta-analysis, Pediatrics and Risk factor. His research in the fields of Atopy and Immunoglobulin E overlaps with other disciplines such as Hookworm infection. His work carried out in the field of Wheeze brings together such families of science as Rural area, Skewness, Demography and Peak flow meter.

His most cited work include:

  • Vascular Factors and Risk of Dementia: Design of the Three-City Study and Baseline Characteristics of the Study Population (477 citations)
  • Lung cancer and cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis : A population-based cohort study (470 citations)
  • Genome-wide association study identifies five loci associated with lung function. (461 citations)

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

His main research concerns Asthma, Internal medicine, Environmental health, Smoking cessation and Odds ratio. His Asthma study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Epidemiology, Pediatrics and Allergy. While the research belongs to areas of Internal medicine, John Britton spends his time largely on the problem of Placebo, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Randomized controlled trial, Bronchodilator and Anesthesia.

His research in Environmental health intersects with topics in Tobacco control, Tobacco harm reduction and Tobacco industry. John Britton focuses mostly in the field of Smoking cessation, narrowing it down to matters related to Public health and, in some cases, Family medicine. His work in Odds ratio tackles topics such as Confidence interval which are related to areas like Demography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Asthma (22.78%)
  • Internal medicine (18.35%)
  • Environmental health (17.51%)

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

  • Environmental health (17.51%)
  • Public health (11.81%)
  • Smoking cessation (15.19%)

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

John Britton spends much of his time researching Environmental health, Public health, Smoking cessation, Demography and Tobacco control. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Smoke-Free Policy, Poverty, Legislation and Epidemiology. His research on Smoking cessation also deals with topics like

  • Disease together with Smoking cessation advice,
  • Randomized controlled trial that intertwine with fields like Nicotine replacement therapy and Abstinence.

His studies examine the connections between Smoking cessation advice and genetics, as well as such issues in Risk factor, with regards to Asthma. His work deals with themes such as Alcohol content, Population exposure, Paraphernalia and Confidence interval, which intersect with Demography. His research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Cohort study and Confounding in his study of Confidence interval.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • SmokeHaz: Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses of the Effects of Smoking on Respiratory Health (99 citations)
  • Electronic cigarette use in young people in Great Britain 2013–2014 (60 citations)
  • Adolescents’ exposure to tobacco and alcohol content in YouTube music videos (51 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Disease

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental health, Demography, Public health, Meta-analysis and Confidence interval. His Environmental health research incorporates elements of Psychological intervention, Productivity and Addiction. His Public health study incorporates themes from Cross-sectional study, Smoking cessation intervention and Product.

His Meta-analysis study is concerned with the field of Internal medicine as a whole. His works in Disease, Asthma, Lung cancer and COPD are all subjects of inquiry into Internal medicine. He has included themes like Wheeze, Passive smoking and Intensive care medicine in his Relative risk study.
