Declining or Waning
- Basic Hematology and Platelet Count Studies:
Research focusing primarily on basic hematological parameters and platelet counts, which has decreased in favor of more complex studies involving platelet function and molecular mechanisms. - Platelet Role in Traditional Hematological Disorders:
Topics related to classic hematological conditions, such as simple thrombocytopenias without a thorough understanding of underlying mechanisms, are becoming less frequent. - Animal Model Studies:
While animal model studies are still important, there is a noticeable decline in the publication of papers solely focused on basic animal model findings without translational implications.
