The development of novel immunosuppressants, coupled with advances in immunology, surgical techniques, donor selection and postoperative care have all contributed to improved outcomes for solid organ transplants, which is now established treatment for organ failure of the kidney, pancreas, liver, heart or lung. While modern immunosuppressive regimes have led to important improvements in short-term graft survival rates, these have not been accompanied by a proportionate increase in long-term graft survival.

The orthopedic device industry is highly competitive and has reached maturity, as demonstrated by its single digit growth rate. The industry is driven largely by incremental innovation and breakthrough product launches have stalled. Several product lines are also facing severe commoditization due to increased competition.

Over the past few years, pharmaceutical sales in the emerging markets have regularly been growing at double-digit rates, albeit in some of the markets there has been a temporary blip caused by the global credit crunch. Much of the recent growth has been fuelled by an expansion in public sector health insurance coverage, which means that drug reimbursement is much more widespread than in the past. However, the growth of reimbursement systems, combined with the ongoing global economic difficulties, has put pressure on governments to introduce more rigorous price-control mechanisms than in the past.

Global cancer prevalence rates are on the rise owing to an aging population, changing lifestyle and increasing pollution. Prevalence data is significantly influenced by the increasing diagnosis and survival rates across the global market.

Driven by rising demand, patent expiries and pharmaceutical cost-containment policies, generic sales have risen consistently at rates in excess of the pharmaceutical industry average over the past decade. Coupled with changes in the geographic and therapeutic make-up of the sector, this has triggered a period of rapid restructuring within the generics industry. Teva and Sandoz have consolidated their positions at the head of the generic company sales rankings; national and regional businesses have emerged as major forces in emerging generic markets; while new players – including multinationals – have begun to pursue footholds in the generics sector.

If the alcoholic drinks market had to be summarised with a single threat and a single opportunity it would arguably be these: declining consumption in developed markets; and increasing consumption among the expanding middle classes of emerging markets.

The $6.8 billion U.S. stone product industry has increased at strong rates over the past decade. Demand has been driven by homeowner’s desire for more durable, high quality, and prestigious building materials. Declining average stone product prices has also stimulated demand. Declining average prices are a result of improved quarry and fabricator productivity and the availability of lower-cost foreign-sourced stone products. Supplies are increasingly coming from manufacturers located in Brazil, China, Turkey, and India. This has made stone flooring and countertops more competitive in their respective markets. In addition, sales have been driven by record new single-family home construction and existing home resales. The latter trend has given a boost to the residential remodeling marke

The decline in the $20 billion (manufacturers’ dollars) U.S. floor coverings market accelerated in the second half of 2008 and dropped at even sharper rates in the second half of 2009, as the domestic economy went into a severe recession. The drop in 2009 will be the fourth consecutive year of declining sales. This unprecedented industry contraction reflects the 39.0% drop in total U.S. housing demand, the deep cut in U.S. household wealth, and the recent downturn in nonresidential markets as the recession moved through the entire economy. All industry sectors were adversely affected by the decline in U.S. floor coverings sales. However, lower priced products, such as carpet and vinyl flooring, are outperforming overall industry trends as consumers shifted down market as unemployment rates rose. Consumers are also turning to home centers to purchase flooring in a search for the best product prices and the lowest installation costs. The above trends are causing industry profit margins to decline sharply. As a result, manufacturers are cutting capacity, employment levels, and capital expenditures to reduce costs. This has resulted in the consolidation of industry sales into the leading manufacturers and marketers.

The dc building power market is projected to grow significantly over the next several years, and among the driving forces is the need to improve efficiency and reduce electricity costs in several areas. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in 2006, data centres and servers in the United States accounted for approximately 1.5% of the nation’s total electricity consumption. To put this in perspective, the EPA stated that this total exceeded the electricity consumed by the entire nation’s colour televisions, and is similar to the amount of electricity consumed by approximately 5.8 million average TV households. In addition, energy consumption in data centres in the US is projected to continue to grow, and double every five years.

The U.S. laminate flooring market is expected to begin to recover during 2010 as the rise in existing home sales since the third quarter 2009 gives a boost to the important residential replacement market. However, laminate flooring could continue to lose share in the U.S. floor coverings industry as competition increases from resilient flooring, engineered wood floors, and click installed bamboo and cork. Prices could also remain weak due to rising competition from Chinese manufacturers and U.S and European manufacturer overcapacity. Manufacturers and marketers must increase their emphasis on unique designs and products in order to hold onto their share of U.S. floor coverings sales. Producers are introducing exotic and extinct wood looks, ceramic and stone looks, and long planks as part of this strategy.
