Scope & Guideline
Leading the Charge: Advances in Endocrine Knowledge and Practice
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Clinical Endocrinology and Diabetes Management:
The journal emphasizes research on various aspects of clinical endocrinology, including diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, and metabolic syndrome, focusing on diagnosis, treatment, and management strategies. - Epidemiological Studies:
There is a strong focus on epidemiological profiles and clinical outcomes related to endocrine disorders, particularly in Southeast Asian populations, to inform public health initiatives and clinical practices. - Case Reports and Clinical Insights:
The journal frequently publishes unique case reports that highlight rare endocrine conditions and complications, providing valuable clinical insights and experiences for practitioners. - Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological Interventions:
Research on both pharmacological treatments (like insulin therapies and newer diabetes medications) and non-pharmacological interventions (such as lifestyle modifications and dietary impacts) is a core area of interest. - Emerging Technologies and Biomarkers:
The journal explores the role of emerging technologies, including genetic studies and biomarkers, in the diagnosis and management of endocrine disorders, thus contributing to precision medicine.
Trending and Emerging
- Diabetes and Its Complications:
There is a marked increase in research related to diabetes management, particularly the complications arising from diabetes, which is crucial given the rising prevalence of diabetes in the ASEAN region. - Impact of COVID-19 on Endocrine Disorders:
Research exploring the intersection of COVID-19 with endocrine disorders, including its effects on diabetes and thyroid conditions, has surged, highlighting the pandemic's impact on patient management. - Mental Health and Endocrine Disorders:
An emerging theme is the investigation of the psychological aspects and mental health implications of living with endocrine disorders, particularly diabetes, which is gaining recognition in clinical practice. - Dietary and Lifestyle Interventions:
There is a growing emphasis on studies examining the effects of dietary habits and lifestyle changes on endocrine health, reflecting a holistic approach to management and prevention. - Genetic and Molecular Insights:
Research focusing on genetic predispositions and molecular mechanisms underlying endocrine disorders is trending, contributing to the understanding of disease etiology and potential targeted therapies.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Endocrine Surgical Techniques:
There has been a noticeable decrease in publications focusing on traditional surgical methods for endocrine disorders, possibly due to the rise of minimally invasive techniques and advancements in non-surgical interventions. - General Endocrine Physiology Studies:
Research focusing solely on general endocrine physiology without direct clinical implications appears to be waning, as the journal shifts towards more applied and translational research. - Rare Endocrine Disorders:
Although case reports are still valued, the frequency of publications on extremely rare endocrine disorders has decreased, likely as the journal prioritizes more prevalent conditions that impact larger patient populations. - Historical Perspectives in Endocrinology:
There is a noticeable decline in papers that focus on historical aspects or retrospective analyses within endocrinology, as contemporary research trends emphasize current clinical practices and new findings.
