Scope & Guideline
Connecting Research and Clinical Practice in Pancreatology
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Clinical Research on Pancreatic Diseases:
The journal publishes studies that investigate various aspects of pancreatic diseases, including clinical outcomes, treatment efficacy, and patient management strategies. - Translational Research and Biomarkers:
Research that aims to translate laboratory findings into clinical practice, particularly studies identifying biomarkers for early detection, prognosis, and treatment response in pancreatic cancer. - Innovative Surgical and Endoscopic Techniques:
Focus on new surgical approaches and endoscopic techniques for managing pancreatic conditions, including minimally invasive procedures and novel therapeutic interventions. - Pathophysiology and Molecular Mechanisms:
Investigations into the biological and molecular mechanisms underlying pancreatic diseases, including cancer biology, genetic factors, and the role of the immune system. - Epidemiology and Risk Factors:
Studies examining the epidemiological aspects of pancreatic diseases, identifying risk factors, and understanding the disease burden in various populations.
Trending and Emerging
- Machine Learning and AI Applications:
A notable increase in studies employing machine learning and AI to predict outcomes, improve diagnosis, and personalize treatment in pancreatic diseases, reflecting the integration of technology in medicine. - Personalized Medicine and Genetic Profiling:
Emerging research focuses on tailoring treatments based on genetic profiling of pancreatic tumors and individual patient characteristics, aiming to optimize therapeutic strategies. - Advanced Endoscopic Techniques:
Growing interest in novel endoscopic techniques for managing pancreatic conditions, including endoscopic ultrasound-guided interventions and their efficacy in various scenarios. - Impact of Nutrition and Lifestyle on Pancreatic Health:
An increasing number of studies examine the role of dietary habits, nutritional status, and lifestyle changes in the management and prevention of pancreatic diseases. - Inflammation and Immune Response in Pancreatic Diseases:
Emerging studies investigate the role of inflammation and the immune system in the pathogenesis of pancreatic diseases, highlighting potential therapeutic targets.
Declining or Waning
- Conventional Imaging Techniques:
There has been a noticeable decline in the publication of studies focusing solely on traditional imaging methods for diagnosing pancreatic conditions, as newer, more advanced techniques (like elastography and AI-assisted imaging) gain prominence. - Basic Science Studies without Clinical Application:
Research that does not directly translate to clinical practice or lacks immediate relevance to patient care appears to be decreasing, indicating a shift towards more clinically applicable research. - Non-Molecular Biomarkers:
The focus on traditional non-molecular biomarkers like CA19-9 is waning, as there is a growing interest in molecular and genetic biomarkers that offer more precise prognostic information. - History of Pancreatic Diseases:
Studies that provide retrospective accounts or historical analyses of pancreatic diseases have become less common, possibly due to a greater emphasis on current clinical practices and future directions.
