Declining or Waning
- Historical Perspectives on Treatment:
There has been a noticeable decrease in papers solely focused on historical treatment approaches for movement disorders, reflecting a shift towards more contemporary and evidence-based practices. - Non-Pharmacological Interventions:
Research on non-pharmacological interventions, such as behavioral therapies for movement disorders, appears to be waning, possibly due to a growing emphasis on pharmacological and surgical options. - General Epidemiological Studies:
While epidemiological studies are important, there seems to be a gradual reduction in broad epidemiological analyses, with more emphasis now on specific genetic or clinical characteristics of movement disorders. - Aging and Movement Disorders:
The exploration of aging-related movement disorders has diminished, which may be attributed to a more focused approach on younger populations or specific genetic conditions.
