Four Decades · Evidence-Based Pediatrics
Twenty papers across national and international journals — in pediatric tuberculosis, neonatal medicine, immunization, and public health. A clinician's lifelong commitment to advancing
child healthcare through evidence, not just service.
Advancing Child Health Through Evidence
Over the past four decades, Dr. N.K. Mittal has remained deeply committed to advancing pediatric healthcare through not only clinical service but also academic contribution. His research — particularly in pediatric tuberculosis, immunization, neonatal care, and public health — has been published in respected national and international journals.
This section presents a selection of his published work, reflecting a continuous pursuit of evidence-based practice, innovation, and community-centered healthcare. Much of this research draws directly from his pioneering work in establishing Haryana's first private NICU with neonatal ventilation, and from decades of frontline pediatric TB elimination in the field.
"Clinical service treats the patient in front of you. Research protects the thousands of children you will never meet. A doctor owes both."
