Pediatrics and Neonatology
Scope & Guideline
Advancing child health through open access research.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Neonatal Health and Development:
Research focused on the health outcomes, developmental milestones, and interventions for neonates, particularly those born preterm or with congenital conditions. - Infectious Diseases in Pediatrics:
Studies addressing the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases affecting children, including emerging pathogens and their implications. - Genetic and Metabolic Disorders:
Exploration of genetic conditions, metabolic disorders, and their management in pediatric populations, including advancements in genetic testing and therapies. - Clinical Interventions and Outcomes:
Evaluation of various clinical interventions, including surgical techniques, pharmacological treatments, and their impacts on patient outcomes in pediatric and neonatal settings. - Public Health and Epidemiology:
Investigations into public health issues, epidemiological trends, and risk factors affecting children's health, including vaccination strategies and health disparities. - Neonatal Intensive Care Practices:
Research on practices within neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), focusing on quality improvement, management protocols, and care strategies for critically ill infants.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19 on Pediatric Populations:
Research exploring the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's health, including mental health outcomes and the management of pediatric diseases during the pandemic. - Neonatal Neurodevelopment and Long-term Outcomes:
An increasing focus on understanding the neurodevelopmental trajectories of neonates, particularly those at risk, and the interventions that can improve long-term outcomes. - Innovative Therapies and Technologies:
Emerging studies on the use of novel therapies, such as gene therapy and advanced pharmacological treatments, aimed at addressing previously difficult-to-treat pediatric conditions. - Environmental Influences on Pediatric Health:
Growing interest in the impact of environmental factors, such as pollutants and maternal health, on the development and health of children. - Telemedicine in Pediatric Care:
The rise of telemedicine as a viable option for pediatric consultations and follow-ups, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, has emerged as a significant area of research.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Pediatric Surgery:
Research related to conventional surgical methods in pediatrics has decreased, possibly due to advancements in minimally invasive techniques and increased focus on conservative management. - Vaccine-Preventable Diseases:
Publications specifically focused on diseases that are preventable through vaccination have waned, potentially reflecting increased vaccination rates and reduced incidence of these diseases. - Chronic Pediatric Illness Management:
Research addressing long-term management of chronic illnesses in children, such as asthma and diabetes, appears to be less prevalent, possibly overshadowed by acute care studies. - Non-communicable Diseases in Pediatrics:
Studies on non-communicable diseases, such as obesity and metabolic syndrome, have become less frequent, as the journal may prioritize acute care and infectious disease topics.
