Theme issues

Theme Issues

The Medical Research Archives is the official journal of the European Society of Medicine. Each year the journal released several theme issues centred around a particular disease or topic.

Theme Issue

Implementation and Impact of Vaccination and Infectious Disease Control in Low-Resource Settings

Infectious diseases remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, disproportionately affecting populations in low-resource settings where healthcare infrastructure and public health outreach are limited. This issue features articles exploring vaccination, infectious disease control, and technology-driven surveillance in these environments.

Theme Issue

Challenges and Opportunities in Health Disparities

Health disparities remain a pressing global concern, shaped by the interplay of socioeconomic status, geography, race, ethnicity, and access to healthcare. This theme issue explores the complex challenges that perpetuate inequities in health outcomes, while also highlighting emerging opportunities to bridge these gaps.

Theme Issue

Innovations in Digital Health

The digital health landscape is rapidly evolving, driven by advances in technology, data science, and patient-centered care models. This theme issue showcases innovations spanning from artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to mobile health applications, wearable sensors, and telemedicine. Together, these tools are redefining how healthcare is delivered, monitored, and personalized.

Theme Issue

Innovations and developments in Malaria

Malaria continues to pose significant global health challenges despite advances in medical science. This special theme issue examines the dual aspects of the ongoing battle against malaria: the persistent hurdles that impede eradication efforts and the innovative opportunities that are emerging in prevention, treatment, and control strategies.

Theme Issue

Innovations in Neuroimaging

The field of neuroimaging is undergoing transformative growth, driven by rapid advances in imaging technologies, computational methods, and clinical applications. This theme issue highlights cutting-edge developments ranging from ultra-high-field MRI and advanced PET tracers to machine learning–enhanced image analysis.

Theme Issue

Advances in Cardiac Electrophysiology and Device Innovation

The field of cardiac electrophysiology continues to evolve rapidly, driven by technological breakthroughs and innovative therapeutic approaches. This theme issue presents cutting-edge developments spanning from novel pacing strategies to artificial intelligence applications in device programming.

Theme Issue

Challenges and Opportunities in COPD

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains a major global health challenge, marked by its complex pathophysiology, heterogeneous patient populations, and significant burden on healthcare systems. This theme issue highlights contemporary perspectives on both the obstacles and emerging opportunities in COPD care.
