Clinical Epidemiology
Scope & Guideline
Unlocking knowledge to shape public health strategies.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Epidemiological Studies:
The journal publishes a wide range of epidemiological studies that explore the distribution and determinants of health-related states in populations, leveraging both observational and interventional study designs. - Use of Real-World Data:
A significant emphasis is placed on the use of real-world data, including electronic health records and claims data, to assess treatment effectiveness, safety, and various health outcomes. - Multimorbidity and Chronic Diseases:
Research on multimorbidity and chronic diseases is a core area, highlighting the complexity of managing patients with multiple concurrent conditions. - Methodological Innovations:
The journal encourages methodological advancements in epidemiology, including statistical techniques for causal inference, data validation, and the use of machine learning in health data analysis. - Health Inequalities:
Clinical Epidemiology addresses health inequalities, focusing on how socioeconomic factors impact health outcomes and access to care. - Patient Safety and Quality of Care:
The journal explores patient safety and quality of care through studies that assess healthcare practices and their outcomes.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19:
The COVID-19 pandemic has catalyzed a surge in research focusing on its epidemiological impact, long-term sequelae, and healthcare responses, marking a significant trend in the journal's recent publications. - Digital Health and Telemedicine:
There is an increasing emphasis on digital health technologies, including telemedicine and mobile health applications, as important tools for improving patient care and health outcomes. - Machine Learning and Data Science:
The application of machine learning and advanced statistical methods in analyzing health data is on the rise, reflecting a trend towards harnessing big data for predictive modeling and risk assessment. - Chronic Disease Management:
Research focusing on chronic disease management and prevention strategies is gaining traction, particularly studies that explore multimorbidity and integrated care approaches. - Patient-Centered Outcomes:
There is a growing interest in patient-centered outcomes and experiences, emphasizing the importance of incorporating patient perspectives into health research and clinical practices. - Global Health and Epidemiological Trends:
Emerging themes include global health issues and the epidemiological trends of diseases in different populations, highlighting the need for comparative studies across various settings.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Clinical Trials:
There appears to be a waning interest in traditional randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in favor of observational studies that utilize large datasets, reflecting a trend towards real-world evidence. - Focus on Rare Diseases:
Research focused on rare diseases has become less frequent, possibly due to the increasing complexity and resource requirements associated with studying these conditions in large populations. - Pharmacological Studies in Isolation:
Studies examining the effects of individual drugs without considering broader health contexts or multimorbidity are declining, as there is a growing recognition of the need for comprehensive approaches to treatment. - Static Health Metrics:
The use of static health metrics (e.g., single-time-point assessments) is decreasing, with a shift towards longitudinal studies that can capture changes over time and provide a more dynamic view of health outcomes.
