Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

Stein Emil Vollset mostly deals with Global health, Years of potential life lost, Life expectancy, Gerontology and Mortality rate. Stein Emil Vollset interconnects Verbal autopsy, Pediatrics, Disease burden and Environmental health in the investigation of issues within Global health. Relative risk is closely connected to Risk factor in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Environmental health.

The Years of potential life lost study combines topics in areas such as Epidemiology, Epidemiological transition, Disability-adjusted life year, Breast cancer and Population health. His work in Life expectancy tackles topics such as Disease which are related to areas like Endocrinology and Homocysteine. His Gerontology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Body mass index, Overweight and Obesity.

His most cited work include:

  • Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6893 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (6893 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (4452 citations)

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

Stein Emil Vollset mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Homocysteine, Endocrinology, Pregnancy and Cohort study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Epidemiology, Pediatrics and Cohort. His Epidemiology research incorporates themes from Years of potential life lost and Disease, Cause of death.

Gerontology is closely connected to Mortality rate in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Cause of death. His work investigates the relationship between Risk factor and topics such as Environmental health that intersect with problems in Disease burden. His research investigates the connection between Disease burden and topics such as Life expectancy that intersect with issues in Public health.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (46.77%)
  • Homocysteine (20.36%)
  • Endocrinology (20.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Global health (17.14%)
  • Life expectancy (12.90%)
  • Environmental health (14.31%)

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

Stein Emil Vollset focuses on Global health, Life expectancy, Environmental health, Internal medicine and Years of potential life lost. His Global health research integrates issues from Pediatrics, Disease burden and Scale. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Population ageing and Population health.

He combines subjects such as Health care, Gerontology, Mortality rate, Cause of death and Birth rate with his study of Life expectancy. His Environmental health study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Relative risk, Standardized mortality ratio and Risk factor. His Years of potential life lost research includes themes of Verbal autopsy, Epidemiology, Epidemiological transition and Disability-adjusted life year, Burden of disease.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global, regional, and national life expectancy, all-cause mortality, and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes of death, 1980–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 (3027 citations)
  • Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 310 diseases and injuries, 1990–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 (2980 citations)
  • Global, Regional, and National Cancer Incidence, Mortality, Years of Life Lost, Years Lived With Disability, and Disability-Adjusted Life-Years for 29 Cancer Groups, 1990 to 2016: A Systematic Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study. (2660 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

His primary areas of investigation include Global health, Life expectancy, Years of potential life lost, Environmental health and Mortality rate. His Global health study incorporates themes from Cause of death, Disease burden, Pediatrics, Population health and Infant mortality. Stein Emil Vollset has researched Life expectancy in several fields, including Health care, Disease, Gerontology and Public health.

He has included themes like Cancer, Causes of cancer, Epidemiology, Epidemiological transition and Disability-adjusted life year in his Years of potential life lost study. His Environmental health research incorporates themes from Verbal autopsy, Attributable risk and Risk factor. His Cohort research incorporates elements of Body mass index, Overweight and Obesity.
