Declining or Waning
- Traditional Neuropharmacology:
Research that relies solely on conventional pharmacological agents without considering the immune system's role is becoming less prominent, as the field increasingly recognizes the importance of neuroimmune interactions. - Non-Inflammatory Mechanisms in Neurological Disorders:
Studies that focus solely on non-inflammatory mechanisms in neurological diseases are declining, as the understanding of inflammation's critical role in these conditions gains traction. - Single-Disease Focus:
Research concentrating on single diseases without exploring comorbidities or the broader neuroimmune landscape is waning, as there is a growing interest in holistic approaches to neuroimmune disorders.
