Declining or Waning
- Traditional Pharmacological Interventions:
As the field shifts towards personalized medicine and biologic therapies, traditional pharmacological treatments for gastrointestinal diseases, such as older anti-inflammatory drugs, are being discussed less frequently. - Basic Science Studies:
There has been a noticeable decline in purely basic science studies that do not directly translate to clinical practice, as the journal increasingly favors translational research that addresses clinical questions. - Surgical Techniques for Common GI Disorders:
Research focusing on traditional surgical techniques for common gastrointestinal disorders appears to be declining, possibly due to the increasing emphasis on minimally invasive and endoscopic approaches. - Single-Center Studies:
The journal is moving towards more multicenter and collaborative studies, which provide broader insights and generalizability, while single-center studies are becoming less common. - Conventional Endoscopy Techniques:
The frequency of articles solely addressing conventional endoscopy techniques may be waning as newer technologies and AI-assisted methods gain traction in the field.
