Hypercholesterolemia is defined as a condition characterized by abnormally high levels of total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in the blood. High cholesterol levels, in turn, can lead to cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and stroke. The normal physiological range of total blood cholesterol is 140-200 mg/dL. However, blood cholesterol consists of various individual components such as LDL cholesterol and HDL cholesterol. While LDL delivers cholesterol to the body, HDL removes cholesterol from cells by reverse cholesterol transport to the liver. Owing to their distinct roles, these components are separately taken into account to determine the dyslipidemic status of an individual. The inheritable form of hypercholesterolemia, characterized by elevated total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels, is known as familial hypercholesterolemia. When the condition is inherited due to the presence of one abnormal copy of the LDL receptor gene, it is known as heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. The presence of abnormal copies of both the LDL receptor alleles leads to homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.

Sales of air treatment products grew by 2% in volume and 10% in current value in 2013, following a 3% growth in volume sales in 2012. The demand for air treatment products is very seasonal and depends on the summer temperatures. The 2013 summer season was not as hot as the previous summer, thus the growth in the sales of cooling appliances was slower than in 2012. The growth of air treatment products was also supported by the handover of a substantial number of new homes during the review period, which drove demand for appliances like air treatment products. However, the extremely low penetration of 2% of air conditioners means that it is not surprising that sales continued to grow during the economic crisis.

Despite its considerable patient population, the acne market has been overlooked and remained stagnant for the last decade. There has been a lack of research efforts due to the perception of a poor return on investment for topical treatments, the mainstay of acne therapy. There is an array of treatment options for acne, though with the exception of isotretinoin, most only provide symptomatic relief as opposed to a curative or disease-modifying solution. However, isotretinoin is unable to serve a significant proportion of the acne market owed to its teratogenic nature, making its prescription for women of child-bearing age problematic.
