Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Statistics

Her primary areas of investigation include Gerontology, Demography, Body mass index, Obesity and Confidence interval. She has researched Gerontology in several fields, including Breastfeeding, Ethnic group, Public health and Behavior change. The Demography study combines topics in areas such as Social desirability and Bayesian multivariate linear regression.

Her work deals with themes such as Cross-sectional study, Prospective cohort study and Attributable risk, which intersect with Body mass index. Her Obesity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Intervention, Television viewing and Offspring. Her research on Confidence interval also deals with topics like

  • Odds ratio, which have a strong connection to Overweight, Logistic regression, Confounding, Anthropometry and Incidence,
  • El Niño which connect with Short stature and Socioeconomic status.

Her most cited work include:

  • Relation between consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks and childhood obesity: a prospective, observational analysis (2094 citations)
  • Reducing obesity via a school-based interdisciplinary intervention among youth: Planet Health (1190 citations)
  • TELEVISION VIEWING AS A CAUSE OF INCREASING OBESITY AMONG CHILDREN IN THE UNITED STATES, 1986-1990 (990 citations)

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

Karen E. Peterson focuses on Demography, Obesity, Body mass index, Environmental health and Physiology. Her Demography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Confidence interval, Anthropometry, Socioeconomic status, Ethnic group and Pediatrics. Her Confidence interval research includes themes of Odds ratio and Odds.

Her studies deal with areas such as Developmental psychology, Intervention and Gerontology as well as Obesity. The various areas that Karen E. Peterson examines in her Body mass index study include Cross-sectional study, Prospective cohort study and Head start. Her biological study deals with issues like Pregnancy, which deal with fields such as Obstetrics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (23.33%)
  • Obesity (24.87%)
  • Body mass index (19.74%)

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

  • Physiology (15.13%)
  • Pregnancy (17.44%)
  • Cohort (7.18%)

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

Karen E. Peterson mainly focuses on Physiology, Pregnancy, Cohort, Sleep in non-human animals and Demography. Her Physiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as DNA methylation, In utero, Sexual maturity, Menarche and Epigenetics. Her Pregnancy research also works with subjects such as

  • Obstetrics that connect with fields like Type 2 diabetes,
  • Impulsivity and Pediatrics most often made with reference to Interquartile range.

The concepts of her Cohort study are interwoven with issues in Cohort study, Young adult, Quartile, Socioeconomic status and Permanent teeth. Her Demography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Childhood obesity, Body mass index, Head start and Lead exposure. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Body mass index, Repeated measures design is strongly linked to Obesity.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Early Life Exposure in Mexico to ENvironmental Toxicants (ELEMENT) Project (24 citations)
  • In utero and peripubertal metals exposure in relation to reproductive hormones and sexual maturation and progression among girls in Mexico City (13 citations)
  • Phthalate Exposures, DNA Methylation and Adiposity in Mexican Children Through Adolescence. (13 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Law
  • Pathology

Her main research concerns Physiology, Pregnancy, Waist, Cohort and Demography. Her research integrates issues of In utero, Urinary system, Menarche and Epidemiology in her study of Physiology. Her work carried out in the field of Pregnancy brings together such families of science as Young adult, Early childhood, Environmental exposure and Obstetrics.

Her studies in Obstetrics integrate themes in fields like Overweight and Fatty liver. Her Waist study which covers Anthropometry that intersects with Confounding and Insulin resistance. Her Demography research incorporates elements of Food frequency questionnaire, Head start, Dietary pattern, Parent education and Lead exposure.
