Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Disease

Shirley A. A. Beresford spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Women's Health Initiative, Randomized controlled trial, Gerontology and Gynecology. Her Internal medicine study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Endocrinology. Her Women's Health Initiative research includes themes of Weight loss and Hazard ratio.

Her studies in Gerontology integrate themes in fields like Psychological intervention, Body mass index, Obesity, Linear regression and Public health. Shirley A. A. Beresford has included themes like Hysterectomy, Cancer, Estrogen and Hormone replacement therapy in her Gynecology study. Her research integrates issues of Homocysteine and Retrospective cohort study in her study of Odds ratio.

Her most cited work include:

  • Effects of conjugated equine estrogen in postmenopausal women with hysterectomy: the Women's Health Initiative randomized controlled trial (3739 citations)
  • A Quantitative Assessment of Plasma Homocysteine as a Risk Factor for Vascular Disease. Probable Benefits of Increasing Folic Acid Intakes (3327 citations)
  • Homocysteine and risk of ischemic heart disease and stroke: A meta-analysis (1663 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Internal medicine, Gerontology, Environmental health, Women's Health Initiative and Randomized controlled trial. Her Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Endocrinology, Gynecology and Oncology. Her Gynecology research incorporates elements of Cancer, Endometrial cancer, Medroxyprogesterone acetate, Risk factor and Hormone replacement therapy.

Her Gerontology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Body mass index, Overweight, Obesity, Intervention and Demography. In her study, Prospective cohort study and Cancer prevention is strongly linked to Cohort study, which falls under the umbrella field of Women's Health Initiative. Her Randomized controlled trial research includes elements of Social support, Physical therapy and Diet therapy.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (45.42%)
  • Gerontology (30.04%)
  • Environmental health (24.18%)

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

  • Environmental health (24.18%)
  • Demography (10.99%)
  • Obesity (15.75%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Environmental health, Demography, Obesity, Body mass index and Randomized controlled trial. Her Demography study also includes

  • Ethnic group that intertwine with fields like Calorie, Disease, Odds ratio, Odds and Physical therapy,
  • Socioeconomic status that intertwine with fields like Confounding, Psychological intervention, Stressor and Sweet food,
  • Poisson regression that intertwine with fields like Marginal structural model, Poisson distribution and Mortality rate. Her studies deal with areas such as Race ethnicity, Attribution and Acculturation as well as Obesity.

Her research in Body mass index intersects with topics in Snacking and Confidence interval. Randomized controlled trial is a subfield of Internal medicine that Shirley A. A. Beresford investigates. Shirley A. A. Beresford has researched Women's Health Initiative in several fields, including Basal metabolic rate, Doubly labeled water, Protein intake and Linear regression.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Serum Nitrogen and Carbon Stable Isotope Ratios Meet Biomarker Criteria for Fish and Animal Protein Intake in a Controlled Feeding Study of a Women's Health Initiative Cohort. (15 citations)
  • Serum Nitrogen and Carbon Stable Isotope Ratios Meet Biomarker Criteria for Fish and Animal Protein Intake in a Controlled Feeding Study of a Women's Health Initiative Cohort. (15 citations)
  • Associations between social capital and depression: A study of adult twins. (14 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Pathology

Environmental health, Obesity, Confounding, Women's Health Initiative and Consumption are her primary areas of study. Her Environmental health study combines topics in areas such as Morning and Food environment. Her work deals with themes such as Body mass index and Meal, which intersect with Obesity.

Her studies deal with areas such as Socioeconomic status, Poisson regression and Marital status as well as Confounding. The concepts of her Socioeconomic status study are interwoven with issues in Interpersonal communication, Physical disorder, Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, Regression analysis and Risk factor. Her Women's Health Initiative research includes elements of Biomarker, Animal protein, Cohort study and Cohort.
