Declining or Waning
- Traditional Fertility Treatments:
Research specifically centered on traditional fertility treatments without consideration of novel approaches or technologies is becoming less prevalent, as the field shifts towards more innovative solutions. - Basic Animal Models:
There is a noticeable reduction in studies solely relying on basic animal models without translational relevance to human fertility. The focus is increasingly on models that provide insights applicable to clinical settings. - General Lifestyle Factors in Reproduction:
While lifestyle factors affecting fertility were once a significant focus, recent publications indicate a waning interest in broad discussions without specific mechanistic insights or targeted interventions. - Static Reviews on Common Conditions:
The publication of static reviews on common reproductive health conditions without new data or perspectives appears to be declining, as the journal favors more dynamic, evidence-based research.
