Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are Demography, Epidemiology, Environmental health, Global health and Gerontology. The concepts of his Demography study are interwoven with issues in Life expectancy, Adult height and Birth rate. He interconnects Relative risk, Cancer, Cause of death and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Epidemiology.

The various areas that Prakash C. Gupta examines in his Environmental health study include Smokeless tobacco, Tobacco use, Public health, Lung cancer and Risk factor. His work deals with themes such as Young adult, Population growth and Fertility, which intersect with Global health. In his study, Obesity and Body height is strongly linked to Body mass index, which falls under the umbrella field of Gerontology.

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?

Environmental health, Smokeless tobacco, Tobacco control, Demography and Public health are his primary areas of study. His Environmental health research integrates issues from Epidemiology, Tobacco harm reduction, Tobacco in Alabama, Tobacco use and Global health. His Smokeless tobacco research includes themes of Cross-sectional study, Advertising, Tobacco users and Odds ratio.

His Tobacco control research incorporates elements of Psychological intervention, Smoking cessation, Intervention, Medical education and Developing country. He has researched Demography in several fields, including Body mass index, Cohort study, Gerontology and Cohort. His Cohort research includes elements of Relative risk, Cancer and Hazard ratio.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental health (36.18%)
  • Smokeless tobacco (22.65%)
  • Tobacco control (21.76%)

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

  • Environmental health (36.18%)
  • Demography (22.35%)
  • Tobacco control (21.76%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental health, Demography, Tobacco control, Smokeless tobacco and Tobacco use. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Iron-deficiency anemia, Cancer, Disease burden and Risk factor. Prakash C. Gupta combines subjects such as Global health, Body mass index, Cohort and Pooled analysis with his study of Demography.

His work carried out in the field of Global health brings together such families of science as Life expectancy, Fertility, Birth rate and Epidemiology. His studies in Tobacco control integrate themes in fields like Psychological intervention, Convention and Developing country. His Smokeless tobacco study incorporates themes from Rural area and WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

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 age-sex-specific mortality and life expectancy, 1950-2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (369 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Prakash C. Gupta mainly investigates Demography, Environmental health, Global health, Cancer and Life expectancy. His Demography study combines topics in areas such as Body mass index, Epidemiology, Cohort and Pooled analysis. His study looks at the intersection of Epidemiology and topics like Years of potential life lost with Verbal autopsy and Cause of death.

His Environmental health study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Epidemiological transition, Mandate, Smokeless tobacco, Burden of disease and Disease burden. His research integrates issues of Fertility, Birth rate, Risk factor and Population health in his study of Global health. His Mortality rate study deals with Incidence intersecting with Cancer prevention.
