Medicine production supply chains are currently operating under huge stress due to the war in Ukraine, COVID-19-related disruptions, logistics bottlenecks, and inflation. An energy-related shutdown of production would have a detrimental effect on the supply of critical medicines to patients in the EU and worldwide. The excessive amount of pressure ...

The year 2023 will begin with three disruptive forces already playing out. The first is inflationary pressure on wages. The global labor market is expected to remain tight due to aging workforces and stringent immigration policies. The COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on labor force turnover rates will keep price inflation higher than pre-pandemic l...

The study covers the global remote pregnancy monitoring solutions market, offering an analysis of the latest innovative solutions that monitor pregnancy with remote patient monitoring (RPM) technologies. With these solutions, expecting mothers can stay connected with their fetuses, and gynecologists can monitor maternal changes and fetal developm...

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are therapies that target cancer cells with antigen-specific antibodies and highly toxic payloads. ADCs are currently generating interest among drug developers, contract manufacturing companies, regulatory agencies, and other stakeholders. The rise in the number of drug approvals has also sparked interest in further ...

RNA therapeutics and vaccines have been around for a long time, but the COVID-19 pandemic enabled their mass-market commercialization. Industry players saw mRNA vaccines developed for COVID-19 as effective for reducing the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in populations. Moderna emerged as the first player to develop and commercialize an mRNA vaccine...

Assisted reproductive technology (ART) includes advanced fertility treatments and procedures, such as the manipulation of eggs, sperm, or embryos to increase the chances of a successful pregnancy. This study primarily examines the market for in vitro fertilization (IVF), a common ART procedure. It highlights innovations around the pre-implantation ...

Structural heart diseases (SHD) encompass cardiac conditions that cause abnormal blood flow inside the heart's chambers, which can be wrong blood flow direction or blood stagnation. Structural abnormalities in the heart lead to impaired functioning rather than the heart's blood vessels. The cardiovascular implants industry has developed prosthetic ...

Human wounds, especially chronic nonhealing wounds, have emerged as a significant clinical challenge for healthcare providers due to traditional wound care products’ inability to treat biofilm-associated infections in wounds, prolonging the wound healing process and difficulty in reducing trauma during wound management. In addition, the rising nu...

The concept of companion diagnostics (CDx) was developed when researchers realized that even potent drugs only had an efficacy between 25% and 60%, the lowest being in oncology. Therefore, a clinical pharmacogenetic assay became important to distinguish patients more likely to respond to a drug or at a lesser risk of associated adverse pathophysiol...
