Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Diabetes mellitus

Nizal Sarrafzadegan spends much of his time researching Global health, Environmental health, Internal medicine, Risk factor and Public health. His Environmental health research integrates issues from Cross-sectional study and Non-communicable disease. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology and Placebo.

His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Relative risk, Cohort study and Kidney disease. His Public health study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Health care and Gerontology. The Life expectancy study combines topics in areas such as Mortality rate and Disease burden.

His most cited work include:

  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 354 diseases and injuries for 195 countries and territories, 1990-2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (2508 citations)
  • Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: A pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19.2 million participants (2278 citations)
  • Worldwide trends in body-mass index, underweight, overweight, and obesity from 1975 to 2016: a pooled analysis of 2416 population-based measurement studies in 128·9 million children, adolescents, and adults (2180 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Environmental health, Blood pressure, Cohort study and Disease. Nizal Sarrafzadegan combines subjects such as Endocrinology and Cardiology with his study of Internal medicine. Nizal Sarrafzadegan has included themes like Epidemiology, Gerontology, Cross-sectional study, Public health and Risk factor in his Environmental health study.

His studies examine the connections between Blood pressure and genetics, as well as such issues in Body mass index, with regards to Anthropometry. His work carried out in the field of Cohort study brings together such families of science as Incidence, Stroke, Hazard ratio, Prospective cohort study and Cohort. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Diabetes mellitus and Physical therapy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (40.67%)
  • Environmental health (21.83%)
  • Blood pressure (15.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Environmental health (21.83%)
  • Internal medicine (40.67%)
  • Disease (18.13%)

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

His main research concerns Environmental health, Internal medicine, Disease, Cohort study and Global health. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Obesity, Epidemiology, Cross-sectional study, Public health and Risk factor. His research integrates issues of Gastroenterology and Cardiology in his study of Internal medicine.

His research in Disease intersects with topics in Cancer, Lipid profile and Gerontology. His Global health study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Rehabilitation, Life expectancy, Response rate, Population health and Birth rate. Nizal Sarrafzadegan has researched Life expectancy in several fields, including Mortality rate and Disease burden.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 354 diseases and injuries for 195 countries and territories, 1990-2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (2508 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
  • Disease
  • Diabetes mellitus

Environmental health, Global health, Disease, Risk factor and Life expectancy are his primary areas of study. His Environmental health study incorporates themes from Obesity, Cohort study, Trace Minerals, Public health and Cardiovascular risk factors. His work deals with themes such as Rehabilitation, Incidence, Response rate, Population health and Birth rate, which intersect with Global health.

His Risk factor research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Relative risk and Blood pressure. Nizal Sarrafzadegan interconnects Mortality rate, Cause of death, Disease burden and Nutrition transition in the investigation of issues within Life expectancy. The concepts of his Mortality rate study are interwoven with issues in Young adult, Fertility, Years of potential life lost and Child mortality.
