Explanation

"Longitudinal manner" in medicine refers to the way doctors and researchers study patients over a long period of time. Instead of just looking at a snapshot of a patient's health at one point in time, they track the same individuals for months, years, or even decades. This allows them to see how diseases progress, how treatments work over the long term, and how different factors can affect a person's health throughout their life.
