Emerging themes include the development and evaluation of novel diagnostic tools and surveillance methodologies for rapid detection of infectious diseases, particularly for outbreaks.
Declining or Waning
- Non-communicable Disease Associations:
The journal's previous emphasis on the intersection of infectious diseases with non-communicable diseases has waned, as the focus has shifted more towards acute infectious disease management and COVID-19-related research. - Traditional Infectious Diseases:
There appears to be a reduction in studies centered on traditional infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis and malaria, in favor of more contemporary issues such as COVID-19 and emerging zoonotic diseases. - Historical Epidemiological Studies:
Research exploring historical data on infectious diseases has decreased, reflecting a shift towards current epidemic responses and real-time data analysis. - Regional Studies of Infectious Diseases:
There has been a noticeable decline in region-specific studies focusing on endemic diseases, as the journal increasingly prioritizes global perspectives and broader public health implications.
