Emerging themes include the use of advanced diagnostic techniques and monitoring technologies, such as video-EEG and digital neuropsychological assessments, which enhance the understanding and management of epilepsy. - Genetic and Precision Medicine Approaches:
The exploration of genetic factors and precision medicine in epilepsy treatment is on the rise, with research focusing on how individual genetic profiles can inform tailored treatment strategies.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Pharmacological Studies:
There has been a noticeable decrease in studies that solely focus on traditional pharmacological treatments without exploring their broader implications or novel combinations with other therapies. - Basic Science Studies Without Clinical Relevance:
Research that emphasizes basic science without direct clinical application or relevance to patient care has become less common, as there is a stronger push towards translational research that connects laboratory findings to clinical practice. - Single-Center Observational Studies:
The trend towards multi-center and larger-scale observational studies has led to a decline in single-center studies, which may not provide sufficient generalizability or impact in the field.
