Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Statistics

Rebecca Hardy mainly focuses on Gerontology, Cohort study, Demography, Cohort and Body mass index. The study incorporates disciplines such as Grip strength, Meta-analysis, Middle age, Socioeconomic status and Life course approach in addition to Gerontology. Her study in Cohort study is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Birth weight, Epidemiology, Public health, Prospective cohort study and Pediatrics.

The concepts of her Demography study are interwoven with issues in Global health and Blood pressure. Her work carried out in the field of Cohort brings together such families of science as Physical therapy, Obstructive lung disease, Menopause and Retrospective cohort study. Her studies in Body mass index integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio and Obesity.

Her most cited work include:

  • 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 (2616 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 (2521 citations)
  • Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980: a pooled analysis of 751 population-based studies with 4.4 million participants (1932 citations)

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

Rebecca Hardy focuses on Demography, Gerontology, Cohort study, Body mass index and Life course approach. Rebecca Hardy interconnects Waist, Epidemiology, Birth cohort and Confidence interval in the investigation of issues within Demography. Her Gerontology course of study focuses on Grip strength and Preferred walking speed.

Her Cohort study research includes elements of Birth weight, Menopause, Prospective cohort study, Pediatrics and Cohort. The various areas that Rebecca Hardy examines in her Body mass index study include Young adult, Obesity and Blood pressure. Her study in Internal medicine focuses on Odds ratio in particular.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (31.50%)
  • Gerontology (30.81%)
  • Cohort study (28.06%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Demography (31.50%)
  • Body mass index (24.27%)
  • Life course approach (21.86%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Demography, Body mass index, Life course approach, Birth cohort and Obesity. Rebecca Hardy interconnects Blood pressure, Socioeconomic status, Cohort study and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Demography. In her research on the topic of Cohort study, Prospective cohort study and Menopause is strongly related with Confidence interval.

Her Body mass index study is focused on Internal medicine in general. Her studies in Life course approach integrate themes in fields like Diabetes mellitus, Multilevel model and Verbal memory, Cognition. Her study in Obesity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Socioeconomic position, Physical functioning and Gerontology.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Long-term and recent trends in hypertension awareness, treatment, and control in 12 high-income countries: an analysis of 123 nationally representative surveys (144 citations)
  • Associations between blood pressure across adulthood and late-life brain structure and pathology in the neuroscience substudy of the 1946 British birth cohort (Insight 46): an epidemiological study. (82 citations)
  • Age at natural menopause and risk of incident cardiovascular disease: a pooled analysis of individual patient data. (78 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Statistics

Her primary areas of investigation include Demography, Internal medicine, Body mass index, Cohort study and Epidemiology. Her Demography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ecological study and Blood lipids, Cholesterol, Total cholesterol, Lipoprotein. Her work on Meta-analysis and Pulse wave velocity as part of general Internal medicine research is frequently linked to Unit of alcohol and ADH1B, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Body mass index research incorporates themes from Cohort, Menopause, Bone strength, Independent walking and Femoral neck. Her study looks at the relationship between Cohort study and topics such as Obesity, which overlap with Type 2 diabetes and Population based cohort. Rebecca Hardy combines subjects such as Young adult, Blood pressure, Confidence interval, Waist and Risk factor with her study of Epidemiology.
