There has been less emphasis on detailed reports of specific surgical techniques or case studies in men's health, possibly due to a growing focus on holistic and community-based approaches. - Single-Disease Focus Studies:
Studies that focus solely on isolated diseases without considering broader psychosocial factors or comorbidities have become less prevalent, indicating a trend towards more comprehensive health perspectives. - Conventional Treatment Protocols:
Research centered solely on established treatment protocols without innovative or integrative approaches appears to be declining, reflecting a shift towards personalized and patient-centered care. - Overemphasis on Biological Determinism:
