Declining or Waning
- Traditional Chemotherapy Approaches:
There is a noticeable decline in studies focusing solely on traditional chemotherapy regimens, as research increasingly shifts towards personalized medicine and targeted therapies that consider genetic and molecular profiles. - Basic Laboratory Research:
Research that primarily emphasizes basic laboratory findings without direct clinical application or relevance is becoming less prominent as the journal prioritizes translational research that bridges basic science and clinical outcomes. - Epidemiological Studies without Intervention:
Epidemiological studies that do not propose interventions or actionable insights are less frequently published, reflecting a trend towards research that not only identifies risk factors but also suggests ways to mitigate those risks. - Single-Cancer Focus Research:
There is a waning interest in research that examines breast cancer in isolation, with a growing emphasis on studies that consider breast cancer in the context of other comorbid conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, and mental health issues.
