What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Luca Ronfani mostly deals with Pediatrics, Global health, Mortality rate, Environmental health and Pregnancy.
His research integrates issues of Prospective cohort study, Randomized controlled trial and Cohort study in his study of Pediatrics.
Luca Ronfani interconnects Disease burden, Life expectancy and Gerontology in the investigation of issues within Global health.
His Life expectancy research integrates issues from Cause of death and Epidemiological transition.
His Mortality rate research includes themes of Verbal autopsy, Epidemiology, Incidence, Disease and Child mortality.
His study explores the link between Environmental health and topics such as Relative risk that cross with problems in Malnutrition.
He most often published in these fields:
- Pediatrics (17.43%)
- Global health (15.60%)
- Mortality rate (13.30%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Pregnancy (11.93%)
- Mortality rate (13.30%)
- Environmental health (12.84%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Luca Ronfani mainly investigates Pregnancy, Mortality rate, Environmental health, Years of potential life lost and Cohort.
His Pregnancy study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index, Logistic regression and Obstetrics.
The Mortality rate study combines topics in areas such as Global health, Population ageing and Incidence.
His research investigates the connection with Global health and areas like Disease burden which intersect with concerns in Epidemiological transition.
His Environmental health study also includes
- Risk factor which is related to area like Cohort study, Verbal autopsy, Malnutrition and Epidemiology,
- Relative risk that intertwine with fields like Pediatrics.
Life expectancy covers Luca Ronfani research in Years of potential life lost.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
