Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

Walter A. Rocca mainly investigates Dementia, Gerontology, Epidemiology, Pediatrics and Cohort study. His Dementia study incorporates themes from Alzheimer's disease, Psychiatry, Incidence and Risk factor. His Gerontology research includes elements of Cumulative incidence and Medical record.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Public health and Disease, Parkinsonism. His Pediatrics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Drug withdrawal, Etiology and Cognitive decline. He interconnects Oophorectomy, Gynecology, Menopause, Obstetrics and Cohort in the investigation of issues within Cohort study.

His most cited work include:

  • Prevalence of parkinsonism and Parkinson's disease in Europe: the EUROPARKINSON Collaborative Study. European Community Concerted Action on the Epidemiology of Parkinson's disease. (694 citations)
  • The Prevalence of Dementia in Europe: A Collaborative Study of 1980–1990 Findings (593 citations)
  • Risk of Dementia among Persons with Diabetes Mellitus: A Population-based Cohort Study (550 citations)

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

Walter A. Rocca spends much of his time researching Dementia, Pediatrics, Rochester Epidemiology Project, Internal medicine and Disease. His Dementia research incorporates themes from Cohort study, Gerontology, Psychiatry, Alzheimer's disease and Cohort. The various areas that Walter A. Rocca examines in his Pediatrics study include Parkinsonism and Age of onset.

His study on Rochester Epidemiology Project is covered under Epidemiology. His studies deal with areas such as Incidence and Public health as well as Epidemiology. In his study, Family history is inextricably linked to Case-control study, which falls within the broad field of Disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dementia (24.36%)
  • Pediatrics (23.85%)
  • Rochester Epidemiology Project (22.56%)

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

  • Rochester Epidemiology Project (22.56%)
  • Cohort study (17.95%)
  • Pediatrics (23.85%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Rochester Epidemiology Project, Cohort study, Pediatrics, Internal medicine and Epidemiology. His work deals with themes such as Odds ratio, Gerontology, Medical record, Disease and Diagnosis code, which intersect with Rochester Epidemiology Project. His is doing research in Parkinson's disease and Dementia, both of which are found in Disease.

His Cohort study research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Oophorectomy, Interquartile range, Menopause, Hazard ratio and Cohort. His studies in Internal medicine integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology and Oncology. His work carried out in the field of Epidemiology brings together such families of science as Myasthenia gravis, Dermatology, Incidence and Public health.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prevalence of Biologically vs Clinically Defined Alzheimer Spectrum Entities Using the National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association Research Framework. (70 citations)
  • Associations of Amyloid, Tau, and Neurodegeneration Biomarker Profiles With Rates of Memory Decline Among Individuals Without Dementia (70 citations)
  • The burden of Parkinson's disease: a worldwide perspective. (40 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Cancer

Walter A. Rocca mostly deals with Rochester Epidemiology Project, Cohort study, Menopause, Gerontology and Parkinson's disease. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio, Disease and Medical record in addition to Rochester Epidemiology Project. His Cohort study research includes themes of Oophorectomy and Interquartile range.

His Interquartile range study combines topics in areas such as Biomarker, Magnetic resonance imaging, Dementia, Alzheimer's disease and Cohort. His studies link Movement disorders with Gerontology. The Epidemiology study combines topics in areas such as Pediatrics and Referral.
