The exploration of new cellular therapies, such as TCR-engineered cells and NK cell therapies, is gaining momentum as researchers seek to expand treatment options for various malignancies.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Conditioning Regimens:
As new conditioning regimens and personalized approaches are developed, traditional conditioning methods are receiving less emphasis, indicating a shift toward more innovative strategies. - Longitudinal Studies of Established Procedures:
Research that focuses on well-established transplantation procedures is becoming less frequent, possibly due to the saturation of existing knowledge and the shift towards novel therapies and techniques. - Basic Science of Hematopoiesis:
While foundational research remains important, there is a noticeable decline in basic science studies related to hematopoiesis as the journal pivots towards clinical applications and translational research. - Cost-Effectiveness Analyses:
Although economic evaluations are still relevant, their frequency appears to be waning as the focus shifts towards clinical efficacy and patient outcomes rather than purely economic considerations. - Single-Center Studies:
Research output from single centers is decreasing, with a trend towards multicenter collaborative studies that provide broader insights and enhance the generalizability of findings.
