Trending and Emerging
- Neuroinflammation and Immune Response:
An increasing number of studies are focusing on the role of neuroinflammation and the immune response in cerebrovascular diseases, highlighting their importance in pathophysiology and recovery. - Cerebral Metabolism and Neuroenergetics:
There is a growing emphasis on understanding cerebral metabolism, including the effects of metabolic dysregulation on cognitive function and the implications for diseases like Alzheimer's. - Personalized Medicine Approaches:
Research aimed at personalized therapeutic strategies, particularly in stroke management and recovery, is becoming more prominent, reflecting a broader trend in medicine. - Advanced Imaging Techniques:
A notable increase in the use of advanced imaging techniques, such as high-resolution MRI and PET, is evident, particularly for assessing cerebrovascular health and treatment efficacy. - Microvascular and Capillary Research:

Declining or Waning
- Basic Mechanistic Studies:
There seems to be a waning interest in purely basic mechanistic studies without translational implications, as the journal increasingly emphasizes studies with direct clinical relevance. - Older Imaging Techniques:
Traditional imaging methods, particularly those that do not incorporate advanced technologies (like machine learning applications), are appearing less frequently, as newer methodologies gain traction. - Focus on Animal Models:
Research primarily centered on animal models without substantial human relevance is declining, with a shift towards studies that bridge preclinical findings to clinical applications.
