It incorporates studies that address the global nature of infectious diseases, considering socio-economic, environmental, and cultural factors that influence disease spread and management.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19 on Infectious Disease Patterns:
Recent publications increasingly focus on the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the epidemiology of other infectious diseases, examining altered patterns of infection and healthcare responses. - Emerging Pathogens and Novel Infections:
There is a growing interest in the study of newly identified pathogens, such as Candida auris and various viral co-infections, highlighting the need for vigilance and research into emerging infectious threats. - Antimicrobial Resistance and Stewardship:
The journal is placing more emphasis on research related to antimicrobial resistance, including studies on resistance mechanisms and the effectiveness of stewardship programs, reflecting a critical global health challenge. - Mental Health and Infectious Diseases:
An emerging theme is the intersection of mental health and infectious diseases, particularly in the context of pandemics, indicating an awareness of the psychological impacts of infectious disease outbreaks. - Global Health Equity and Infectious Disease Management:
Research addressing health disparities and the social determinants impacting infectious disease outcomes is gaining traction, emphasizing the importance of equitable health interventions in global health strategies.
Declining or Waning
- Non-infectious Complications of Infectious Diseases:
There has been a noticeable decrease in studies focusing on the non-infectious complications arising from infectious diseases, such as long-term sequelae, as the journal shifts towards more immediate and actionable research. - Traditional Infectious Disease Management:
The emphasis on conventional management strategies for well-established infectious diseases seems to be waning, with more recent publications concentrating on novel therapies and emerging pathogens. - Geographic-Specific Studies:
Research focused solely on specific geographic or localized outbreaks without broader implications appears to be less frequent, as the journal increasingly aims for global relevance and applicability in its articles.
