Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics

Nancy Padian mainly investigates Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Immunology, Demography, Sexually transmitted disease and Family planning. Her studies deal with areas such as Human sexuality, Heterosexuality and Epidemiology as well as Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Her Immunology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Global health, Population level, Mass screening and Risk factor.

Her studies in Demography integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio, Young adult, Gerontology, Women in development and Seroconversion. Her work carried out in the field of Sexually transmitted disease brings together such families of science as Public health, Reproductive health, Sexual transmission and Intensive care medicine. Her research investigates the connection between Family planning and topics such as Clinical research that intersect with issues in Absolute risk reduction.

Her most cited work include:

  • Children's symptom and social functioning self-report scales. Comparison of mothers' and children's reports. (638 citations)
  • Relative resistance to HIV-1 infection of CD4 lymphocytes from persons who remain uninfected despite multiple high-risk sexual exposure. (608 citations)
  • Young people's sexual health in South Africa: HIV prevalence and sexual behaviors from a nationally representative household survey (541 citations)

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

Nancy Padian mainly focuses on Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, Demography, Gynecology, Immunology and Family medicine. Her Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome research focuses on Public health and how it connects with Reproductive health and Young adult. Her research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Incidence, Gerontology, Confidence interval and Sexually transmitted disease in her study of Demography.

Her Gynecology research includes themes of Family planning, Vaginal Diaphragm, Cohort study, Vagina and Obstetrics. In her work, Psychological intervention and Cohort is strongly intertwined with Condom, which is a subfield of Family planning. She has included themes like Sexual transmission and Virology in her Immunology study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (31.85%)
  • Demography (30.95%)
  • Gynecology (22.62%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Family medicine (18.15%)
  • Demography (30.95%)
  • Antiretroviral therapy (3.27%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Family medicine, Demography, Antiretroviral therapy, Psychological intervention and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Her Demography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cross-sectional study, Incidence and Confidence interval. Her Antiretroviral therapy research incorporates themes from Hiv infected, Interquartile range, Viral load and Cohort.

The concepts of her Psychological intervention study are interwoven with issues in Intervention, Health psychology and Environmental health. Her work often combines Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and Track studies. Her Regimen research integrates issues from Survival analysis and Immunology.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Hormonal contraceptive use and women's risk of HIV acquisition: a meta-analysis of observational studies (102 citations)
  • Estimated mortality on HIV treatment among active patients and patients lost to follow-up in 4 provinces of Zambia: Findings from a multistage sampling-based survey. (38 citations)
  • Cash vs. food assistance to improve adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV-infected adults in Tanzania. (32 citations)

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

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics

Nancy Padian spends much of her time researching Demography, Family medicine, Antiretroviral therapy, Pediatrics and Cross-sectional study. Nancy Padian performs multidisciplinary studies into Demography and Prioritization in her work. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hiv infected, Retention in care, Medication adherence and Virology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Patient choice, Mixed logit and Cohort in addition to Antiretroviral therapy. In her study, Patient characteristics, Pharmacy, Odds ratio and Logistic regression is strongly linked to Confidence interval, which falls under the umbrella field of Pediatrics. Her research in Cross-sectional study focuses on subjects like Pregnancy, which are connected to Young adult, Serostatus and Immunology.
