Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inflammatory pathologies, which generally refer to chronic inflammatory conditions, represent a significant problem in healthcare today. According to the World Health Organization, chronic inflammatory diseases are among the greatest threats to human health. These conditions not only cause significant morbidity to patients, but also exert a huge burden on healthcare systems worldwide. The projected number of patients suffering from these conditions is likely to increase in the coming decades. It is imperative that we have an enhanced understanding of the underlying reasons for this surge in inflammatory pathologies.
There have been significant advances made in recent decades regarding the management of these conditions, such as novel biomarkers, immunotherapies, and newer diagnostic tools. Further research into preventive measures, early diagnostic techniques and management are necessary to tackle the expected surge in the coming years.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Uday Nagesh Shivaji
