Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Years of potential life lost, Demography, Mortality rate, Global health and Life expectancy are his primary areas of study. His Years of potential life lost study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental health, Relative risk, Breast cancer, Population health and Risk factor. In general Environmental health, his work in Environmental exposure is often linked to Risk assessment linking many areas of study.

His Mortality rate study deals with Gerontology intersecting with Disability-adjusted life year and Incidence. His Global health study incorporates themes from Epidemiology, Disease and Mesothelioma. His studies in Life expectancy integrate themes in fields like Verbal autopsy, Cause of death, Epidemiological transition, Child mortality and Disease burden.

His most cited work include:

  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 301 acute and chronic diseases and injuries in 188 countries, 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6156 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4452 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national age-sex specific all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 240 causes of death, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4387 citations)

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

Ken Takahashi mostly deals with Environmental health, Climatology, Occupational safety and health, Epidemiology and Demography. His Environmental health research also works with subjects such as

  • Risk factor which is related to area like Relative risk and Cohort study,
  • Asbestosis together with Chrysotile. He has researched Climatology in several fields, including El Niño, Climate change and Precipitation.

His Occupational safety and health research includes elements of Health care and Questionnaire. Ken Takahashi has included themes like Life expectancy, Years of potential life lost, Incidence and Gerontology in his Demography study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Global health and Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental health (22.74%)
  • Climatology (21.30%)
  • Occupational safety and health (11.55%)

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

  • Climatology (21.30%)
  • Environmental health (22.74%)
  • El Niño Southern Oscillation (3.97%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Environmental health, El Niño Southern Oscillation, El Niño and Global health. His Climatology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change, Intertropical Convergence Zone, Precipitation and Amazon rainforest. He has researched Environmental health in several fields, including Chrysotile, Mesothelioma, Relative risk, Public health and Asbestosis.

His work deals with themes such as Mortality rate and Demography, which intersect with Global health. The study incorporates disciplines such as Life expectancy and Epidemiology in addition to Demography. His Life expectancy research incorporates themes from Verbal autopsy, Cause of death and Epidemiological transition.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national age-sex specific mortality for 264 causes of death, 1980–2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016 (2443 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national age-sex-specific mortality for 282 causes of death in 195 countries and territories, 1980-2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (1735 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 84 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks for 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017 : a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (1257 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Climatology, Environmental health, Global health, Years of potential life lost and Life expectancy are his primary areas of study. His Environmental health study combines topics in areas such as Chrysotile, Relative risk, Occupational cancer and Risk factor. His research integrates issues of Mortality rate, Asbestosis and Gross domestic product in his study of Global health.

The various areas that Ken Takahashi examines in his Years of potential life lost study include Stomach cancer, Cancer, Colorectal cancer, Skin cancer and Epidemiology. In Epidemiology, Ken Takahashi works on issues like Cause of death, which are connected to Pediatrics. His Life expectancy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Demography and Disease burden.
