Neurology-Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation
Scope & Guideline
Fostering collaboration in the fight against neuroinflammatory disorders.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Autoimmune Neurological Disorders:
The journal publishes research on various autoimmune neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders, and autoimmune encephalitis, highlighting diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic aspects. - Neuroinflammation:
Articles often explore the mechanisms of neuroinflammation and its role in neurological diseases, including the cellular and molecular pathways involved in immune responses within the CNS. - Biomarkers and Diagnostics:
The journal emphasizes the identification and validation of biomarkers for diagnosing and monitoring neurological diseases, particularly autoimmune conditions, which are critical for personalized medicine. - Therapeutic Interventions:
Research includes clinical trials and studies on novel treatment strategies, including immunotherapies and disease-modifying therapies, aimed at managing autoimmune neurological conditions. - Genetic and Environmental Factors:
The journal investigates the genetic predispositions and environmental triggers associated with autoimmune neurological disorders, contributing to the understanding of disease etiology.
Trending and Emerging
- Long COVID and Neurological Implications:
The impact of COVID-19 on neurological health, particularly in the context of post-viral syndromes, has garnered increased attention, indicating a growing recognition of the long-term effects of viral infections on the nervous system. - Precision Medicine in Neurology:
There is a rising trend towards personalized treatment approaches in autoimmune neurological disorders, focusing on individual genetic, biomarker, and environmental profiles to tailor therapies. - Single-Cell and Multi-Omics Approaches:
The use of advanced techniques such as single-cell RNA sequencing and multi-omics analyses is becoming more prominent, enabling researchers to dissect the complexity of immune responses in neurological diseases. - Neuroinflammation as a Therapeutic Target:
Emerging studies are increasingly targeting neuroinflammation as a modifiable component of disease pathology, exploring novel anti-inflammatory therapies that could improve clinical outcomes. - Integration of Machine Learning and AI in Diagnostics:
The application of machine learning and artificial intelligence in the diagnosis and management of neuroimmunological diseases is becoming a focal point, reflecting a trend towards innovative technological solutions in clinical practice.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Neuroimmunology Concepts:
Research that adheres strictly to classical definitions and mechanisms of neuroimmunology without integrating newer findings or technologies has become less frequent, as the field evolves towards more nuanced understandings. - General Neurology Studies:
There is a noted decline in studies that focus broadly on neurology without a specific immune or inflammatory component, as the journal prioritizes research that directly ties neurology to immunology. - Basic Science Research:
While foundational studies are crucial, there appears to be a waning interest in purely basic science research without clinical implications, as the journal increasingly favors translational studies that bridge laboratory findings with clinical applications.
