Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Mikel Izquierdo is best known for:

  • Strength training
  • Aerobic exercise
  • Physical fitness

His Physical medicine and rehabilitation study frequently links to other fields, such as Muscle strength, Strength training and Balance (ability). Bench press and Leg press are closely tied to his Resistance training research. His research ties Resistance training and Bench press together. Mikel Izquierdo brings together Physical therapy and Nursing to produce work in his papers. Mikel Izquierdo connects Nursing with Physical therapy in his study. His study ties his expertise on Anthropometry together with the subject of Internal medicine. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Plyometrics and Quantum mechanics. His Plyometrics study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Jump. Many of his studies on Jump involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Quantum mechanics.

His most cited work include:

  • Changes in agonist-antagonist EMG, muscle CSA, and force during strength training in middle-aged and older people (679 citations)
  • Effects of Different Exercise Interventions on Risk of Falls, Gait Ability, and Balance in Physically Frail Older Adults: A Systematic Review (549 citations)
  • Resistance Training for Older Adults (445 citations)

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

In most of his Physical therapy studies, his work intersects topics such as Resistance training, Strength training and Sprint. You can notice a mix of various disciplines of study, such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Endocrinology, Cardiology and Psychiatry, in his Internal medicine studies. He connects Physical medicine and rehabilitation with Physical therapy in his research. He integrates several fields in his works, including Endocrinology and Internal medicine. Mikel Izquierdo conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Blood pressure and Heart rate through his research. Mikel Izquierdo incorporates Heart rate and Blood pressure in his studies. His work on Jump expands to the thematically related Quantum mechanics. His study on Jump is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Quantum mechanics.

Mikel Izquierdo most often published in these fields:

  • Physical therapy (80.49%)
  • Internal medicine (72.26%)
  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation (38.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2020-2022)?

  • Internal medicine (92.50%)
  • Physical therapy (82.50%)
  • Meta-analysis (37.50%)

In recent works Mikel Izquierdo was focusing on the following fields of study:

His Physical therapy research is linked to Cardiorespiratory fitness, Physical activity, Physical fitness, Resistance training and Grip strength, among other subjects. Mikel Izquierdo is involved in relevant fields of research such as Cognition and Intervention (counseling) in the realm of Psychiatry. His study in Psychiatry extends to Cognition with its themes. Mikel Izquierdo conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Internal medicine and Cardiology through his research. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Cardiology and Internal medicine. He combines Meta-analysis and Prospective cohort study in his research. In his articles, he combines various disciplines, including Prospective cohort study and Meta-analysis. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Gerontology and Demography through his research. He combines Demography and Gerontology in his research.

Between 2020 and 2022, his most popular works were:

  • International Exercise Recommendations in Older Adults (ICFSR): Expert Consensus Guidelines (203 citations)
  • Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior, Sleep and Self-Regulation in Spanish Preschoolers during the COVID-19 Lockdown (56 citations)
  • Physical activity guidelines for older people: knowledge gaps and future directions (49 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Physical fitness
  • Cancer

As part of one scientific family, Mikel Izquierdo deals mainly with the area of Psychosocial, narrowing it down to issues related to the Psychiatry, and often Psychological intervention, Cognition and Geriatrics. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Nursing and Psychological intervention. He regularly links together related areas like Quality of life (healthcare) in his Nursing studies. He carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Quality of life (healthcare) and Disease. He integrates Disease with Psychosocial in his research. His Cognition study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Psychiatry. He is exploring Meta-analysis as part of his Strictly standardized mean difference and Random effects model and Meta-analysis studies. Hazard ratio and Strictly standardized mean difference are all intrinsically tied to his study in Confidence interval. Mikel Izquierdo integrates Hazard ratio with Confidence interval in his study.
