Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Mortality rate
  • Global health

His primary areas of investigation include Years of potential life lost, Global health, Gerontology, Environmental health and Mortality rate. His Years of potential life lost study frequently links to other fields, such as Population health. His research investigates the connection with Global health and areas like Cause of death which intersect with concerns in Disease burden.

In his study, Lalit Dandona carries out multidisciplinary Gerontology and Overweight research. Among his Environmental health studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Risk factor and Relative risk. His Mortality rate research includes elements of Disability-adjusted life year and Prevalence.

His most cited work include:

  • Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6893 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6893 citations)
  • 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)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Global health, Environmental health, Years of potential life lost, Mortality rate and Cause of death. Combining a variety of fields, including Global health, Pediatrics and Gerontology, are what the author presents in his essays. His research in Gerontology tackles topics such as Transmission which are related to areas like Malaria.

His work in Years of potential life lost is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Population health. His Cause of death course of study focuses on Disease burden and Population ageing. His Life expectancy research includes themes of Fertility and Epidemiological transition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Global health (81.93%)
  • Environmental health (56.63%)
  • Years of potential life lost (39.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2020)?

  • Global health (81.93%)
  • Mortality rate (33.73%)
  • Years of potential life lost (39.76%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Global health, Mortality rate, Years of potential life lost, Life expectancy and Cause of death. His study brings together the fields of Birth rate and Global health. The various areas that Lalit Dandona examines in his Mortality rate study include Child mortality and Infant mortality.

Years of potential life lost is closely attributed to Verbal autopsy in his work. He works mostly in the field of Life expectancy, limiting it down to topics relating to Population health and, in certain cases, Disease burden and Burden of disease, as a part of the same area of interest. His Risk assessment research covers fields of interest such as Environmental health and Risk factor.

Between 2018 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Health effects of dietary risks in 195 countries, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (904 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national burden of stroke, 1990-2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016 (564 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national burden of traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury, 1990-2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of disease Study 2016 (248 citations)

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

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Mortality rate
  • Psychiatry

Lalit Dandona focuses on Global health, Mortality rate, Quality-adjusted life year, Verbal autopsy and Years of potential life lost. Lalit Dandona performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Global health and Environmental health via his papers. He frequently studies issues relating to Risk of mortality and Environmental health.

In his works, Lalit Dandona undertakes multidisciplinary study on Verbal autopsy and Stroke. His Population ageing research spans across into areas like Emergency medicine and Traumatic brain injury.
