Declining or Waning
- Traditional Risk Factor Studies:
Research focusing solely on conventional cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., hypertension, cholesterol levels) has decreased as the field moves towards more complex, multifactorial models of disease. - Basic Animal Models:
There is a noticeable reduction in studies utilizing traditional animal models without incorporating modern techniques such as genetic manipulation or advanced imaging, as researchers seek more relevant and translationally applicable models. - Single-Factor Interventions:
Research that examines the effects of single interventions on vascular health, without considering the multifaceted interactions present in human health, is becoming less prevalent as the complexity of cardiovascular disease is better appreciated. - Epidemiological Studies with Limited Scope:
Epidemiological studies that focus narrowly on specific populations without integrating broader systemic factors are declining, as there is a push for more comprehensive approaches to understanding cardiovascular health across diverse populations.
