Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Pathology

Breast feeding, Pediatrics, Breastfeeding, Breast milk and Micronutrient are her primary areas of study. Her Breast feeding research incorporates themes from Weight loss, Weight gain, Obstetrics, Anthropometry and Animal science. Her Pediatrics study combines topics in areas such as Birth weight, Anemia, Ferritin and Physiology.

Her Breastfeeding research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Odds ratio, Overweight, Low birth weight and Environmental health. Her work deals with themes such as Randomized controlled trial and Lactation, which intersect with Breast milk. Her work carried out in the field of Micronutrient brings together such families of science as Food science, Iron status, Vitamin, Nutrient and Malnutrition.

Her most cited work include:

  • WHO child growth standards: length/height-for-age, weight-for-age, weight-for-length, weight-for-height and body mass index-for-age - Methods and development (1993 citations)
  • What works? Interventions for maternal and child undernutrition and survival. (1572 citations)
  • Systematic review of the efficacy and effectiveness of complementary feeding interventions in developing countries. (595 citations)

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

Kathryn G. Dewey focuses on Pediatrics, Breast feeding, Breastfeeding, Micronutrient and Breast milk. The Pediatrics study combines topics in areas such as Birth weight, Anthropometry, Anemia and Child development. Her Breast feeding research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Weight gain, Lactation, Physiology and Postpartum period.

In her study, Animal science is strongly linked to Endocrinology, which falls under the umbrella field of Lactation. Her Breastfeeding research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Weaning and Obstetrics. Her Micronutrient research also works with subjects such as

  • Randomized controlled trial which is related to area like Nutritional Supplementation,
  • Malnutrition and related Environmental health.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Pediatrics (26.05%)
  • Breast feeding (23.82%)
  • Breastfeeding (19.60%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Micronutrient (17.87%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (10.67%)
  • Environmental health (14.89%)

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

Kathryn G. Dewey spends much of her time researching Micronutrient, Randomized controlled trial, Environmental health, Physiology and Gestation. Her Micronutrient research focuses on Postpartum period and how it relates to Animal science, Lactation and Breast feeding. Her Environmental health research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Socioeconomic status, MEDLINE and Malnutrition.

Her Malnutrition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wasting, Malaria and Pediatrics. Kathryn G. Dewey combines topics linked to Child development with her work on Pediatrics. Her Internal medicine research focuses on subjects like Endocrinology, which are linked to Hepcidin, Breast milk and Ferritin.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Effects of water quality, sanitation, handwashing, and nutritional interventions on diarrhoea and child growth in rural Bangladesh: a cluster randomised controlled trial. (278 citations)
  • Lipid-based nutrient supplementation in the first 1000 d improves child growth in Bangladesh: a cluster-randomized effectiveness trial (48 citations)
  • Bacterial communities found in placental tissues are associated with severe chorioamnionitis and adverse birth outcomes (47 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Pathology

Her primary areas of study are Micronutrient, Gestation, Randomized controlled trial, Environmental health and Malnutrition. Her Micronutrient study incorporates themes from Small for gestational age and Physiology. Her Malnutrition study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Intervention, Early childhood and Psychological intervention.

Her study on Postpartum period also encompasses disciplines like

  • Endocrinology which intersects with area such as Breast feeding,
  • Lactation which is related to area like Breastfeeding. The study incorporates disciplines such as Young adult and Pediatrics in addition to Offspring. Her study looks at the relationship between Pediatrics and fields such as Home fortification, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
