Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Animal Health and Disease Management:
Research that explores the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases affecting domestic and wild animals, including studies on zoonotic diseases that can impact human health. - Veterinary Epidemiology and Public Health:
Investigations into the prevalence, risk factors, and transmission dynamics of infectious diseases in animal populations, as well as their implications for public health. - Animal Welfare and Ethics:
Studies that assess the welfare of animals in various environments, including agricultural settings, and the ethical considerations surrounding veterinary practices and animal management. - Innovative Veterinary Practices and Technologies:
Research focusing on new methodologies, technologies, and treatments in veterinary medicine, including pharmacology, surgical techniques, and diagnostic tools. - Comparative Medicine and Translational Research:
Exploration of comparative aspects of veterinary medicine that can inform human medicine, including studies on animal models for human diseases. - Environmental and Ecological Impacts:
Research addressing the effects of environmental factors on animal health, including studies on pollution, habitat changes, and the role of wildlife in disease transmission.
Trending and Emerging
- One Health Approach:
There is a growing emphasis on the One Health framework, which recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, as evidenced by studies addressing zoonotic diseases and their transmission. - Sustainable Veterinary Practices:
Research focusing on sustainability indicators and practices in veterinary medicine is on the rise, reflecting an increased awareness of environmental impacts and animal welfare considerations. - Antimicrobial Resistance:
The prevalence and management of antimicrobial resistance in veterinary contexts are increasingly prominent, highlighting the need for effective strategies to combat resistant pathogens. - Innovative Diagnostic Techniques:
Emerging technologies in diagnostics, such as multiplex assays and molecular characterizations, are gaining attention, indicating a shift towards more precise and rapid identification of diseases. - Nutritional Interventions for Health Improvement:
Research exploring the role of nutrition, including the use of novel feed additives and dietary supplements, in enhancing animal health and productivity is becoming more prevalent.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Animal Breeding and Genetics:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the focus on conventional breeding practices and genetic studies as newer approaches, such as genomics and biotechnology, gain traction in the field. - Basic Pharmacology Studies:
Research centered solely on basic pharmacological studies without clinical applications appears to be declining, possibly due to a shift towards studies that emphasize translational impacts. - Conventional Animal Husbandry Practices:
Studies exploring traditional animal husbandry methods seem to be waning, with an increasing emphasis on sustainable and innovative practices that align with modern welfare standards. - Non-Zoonotic Diseases in Domestic Animals:
Research on diseases that do not have zoonotic implications is becoming less prominent, as the journal increasingly prioritizes studies that connect animal and human health.
