Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Cardiovascular Disease

There has been a dramatic increase in the incidence of diabetes worldwide, which has been exacerbated by the growing obesity problem across the globe. Once thought of as primarily a childhood disease--sometimes referred to as juvenile diabetes, now mostly Type 1 diabetes--the obesity crisis linked to the adoption of a high-fat, high-carbohydrate, high-calorie American diet has resulted in skyrocketing rates of diabetes among adults across the world. To compound the global diabetes epidemic, health professionals are witnessing an alarming increase in inflammatory diseases resulting from adult onset (i.e., Type 2) diabetes. This phenomenon is referred to as "metabolic syndrome" where a confluence of inflammatory conditions occur along with the diabetes. As a result, growing evidence appears to show that metabolic syndrome makes the diabetic patient susceptible to degenerative health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, stroke and, now believed, Alzheimer's disease. As the diabetes epidemic escalates, a new sense of urgency has taken hold. Proactive strategies for prevention of the disease are being put in place by international health organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), as well as by the health departments of industrialized and developing countries, and even at the local level where food ingredients regulations are being passed. This TriMark Publications report charts the changing landscape of the global diabetic population and explores the added health concerns resulting from the metabolic syndrome phenomenon and one of its major risk factors: cardiovascular disease (CVD). Furthermore, this study evaluates widely-accepted therapeutic approaches to diabetes that are currently in use, while providing an in-depth analysis of emerging technologies that will be used to treat diabetes and other inflammatory diseases in the future.

Retailing in India

The Indian retail market has grown at a double-digit compound annual growth rate over the last five years and was worth an estimated $554bn in 2011. The Indian economy grew throughout the global downturn, with increasing consumer purchasing power bolstering the retail sector. Retailing is now the second highest contributor to India’s gross domestic product.
Features and benefits
  • Uncover the main opportunities available in the Indian retail market across Clothing, Grocery, Electricals, Health and Beauty and Homewares
  • Understand the size of the Indian market by sector and the growth forecasts to 2015
  • Understand the key financial, cultural, political and logistical reasons that has so far held back the development of modern retail in India
  • Discover which retailers are operating in India and with which local partners
Highlights
Confusion reigns over India's FDI policy. Currently international food and grocery retailers are prohibited from entering the Indian market, except through cash and carry wholesale trading, but the government announced plans to lift restrictions in 2011, but then committed an embarrassing u-turn just weeks later.
The emergence of modern retail started in the major cities of Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, and the satellite towns which have developed around them due to the huge influx of young professionals. Modern retail is concentrated in just a few cities, and premium locations there have already become saturated.
Employing 8% of the total work force, retail is the second largest employer in the country. The majority of these workers are self-employed, as India has a huge base of traditional retail outlets which are often family-owned. At present, modern retail represents only 5–7% of total retail in India.
Your key questions answered
  • Why has India's organised retail sector taken so long to develop, and what is continuing to hold it back?
  • How large is the retail opportunity in India, and which sectors are most amenable to entry by foreign retailers?
  • Which international players are operating in India and who do they partner with?

By all accounts, it is a very mature, large market employing over 100,000 laboratory workers and spawning an industry for reagents and instruments comprised of thousands of companies worldwide. The term clinical laboratory testing usually refers to determining the concentration or activity of a protein, carbohydrate, lipid, electrolyte, enzyme or small molecule in easily collected body fluids such as blood, serum, plasma or urine. However, it is not necessarily limited to these determinations. The purpose of this TriMark Publications report is to describe the specific segments of the global clinical laboratory instrumentation and reagent market. Within this area, the report covers segments that are highly active in terms of innovation and growth. Specifically, this clinical laboratory testing report examines the markets for small lab equipment all the way up to highly-automated, large lab platforms, as well as accessory equipment such as reagents, supplies and manufacturers' original equipment manufacturer (OEM) additional equipment. The emphasis is on companies and products that are actively developing and marketing laboratory analyzer products for the clinical setting, including hospitals, independent labs, physician's offices and miscellaneous clinics. This study concentrates on the clinical laboratory instrumentation industry market segment and the companion reagents sector in the U.S. and around the world. The regional markets and their differences are examined, including in Europe, Asia (Japan, China and India) and the rest of the world (ROW).

Furthermore, Mexico’s cumulative defense expenditure over the forecast period is expected to be US$37.7 billion, of which US$36.1 billion is expected to be revenue expenditure (see graph below for reference).  


Corruption is rampant in the Mexican armed forces, specifically in the army. There is increasing evidence of the expanding role of the Mexican military in the drug war and it is suspected that arms procured by the army are passed to the drug cartels, which use the arms to enhance their drug trade. There is also concern that US aid to Mexico — US$1.4 billion has been pledged to help Mexico reduce drug trafficking — could be used for criminal activity or for personal gain by top military officials. Moreover, there is a lack of transparency in defense contracts awarded to international suppliers, with the government classifying most defense procurements as top secret. Overall, corruption and a lack of transparency are hindering the growth of Mexico’s defense industry.

As the Mexican defense industry comprises of only state-owned companies with little specialization in weapon categories. The resulting lack of advanced defense technology means that foreign weapons suppliers who intend to conduct business in Mexico face infrastructure challenges. Although foreign suppliers can bring advanced technology to Mexico, this results in technology imports without offset incentives, as the defense offset terms are not clearly defined by the Mexican MoD. Consequently, foreign suppliers find pursuing a defense opportunity in Mexico challenging.

Offset obligation provides an opportunity for the development of domestic infrastructural and technological capabilities. However, Mexico has not disclosed any offset obligations imposed for its arms procurement, which is partially responsible for the lack of development in the domestic defense industry. In March 2009, its first major offset agreement was signed between Mexico and France in which, with the purchase of six EC 725 multipurpose helicopters worth US$300 million from Eurocopter, the French company set up an assembly facility in Mexico worth US$500 million, which will help Mexico develop its aeronautical capabilities. However, during the forecast period, the country is also expected to give preference to arms exporters who provide technology transfers to offset equipment imports.
