Growing Economic Burden of Chronic Diseases Paving the Way for Precision Medicine Market

 

Rising economic burden of chronic diseases is considered to be one of the significant challenges that healthcare and biomedical research and development systems are facing at present. The high prevalence of chronic diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory diseases, among others, is a prime concern across the globe. The chronic diseases have been responsible for 60% of the deaths worldwide and constitute approximately 43% of the global economic burden for diseases. According to World Health Organization in 2016, healthcare spending increased from 2.4% to 7.5% between 2015 and 2020.By 2020, the global spending on diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and respiratory diseases, is expected to reach $4 trillion. The chronic conditions hold approximately 65% of the annual healthcare cost of any country and one-third of the global population at present.

The growth of the precision medicine market over the last few years have been monumental. The factors propelling the growth of the precision medicine market are increasing focus on targeted therapy by reducing trial-and-error medicine, growing demand for non-invasive testing procedures, reducing adverse  drug  reactions  through  pharmacogenomics  testing,  advancement  of  technology  in understanding human biology & disease susceptibility, and shift in the significance of medicine from reaction to prevention, among others. However, several clinical, economic, ethical, and regulatory conditions continue to challenge the growth of the market.

Analyzing the Growth and Expansion of the Neurostimulation Devices Market

The global healthcare economic burden, at present, is primarily characterized by major contributors such as chronic pain and neurological disorders. The annual societal cost for chronic pain and neurological disorders accounted for $635 billion and $789 billion respectively in the U.S., in 2014. Opioids are one of the most preferred medicines for the treatment of chronic pain, however, the side-effects associated with opioids have resulted in a decline in their overall usage and sale. Consequently, the increasing cases of neurological disorders and the need for a novel approach for the treatment of such diseases has led to the advent of neuromodulation technologies. The rapid shift of the healthcare industry toward neurostimulation devices from opioids and other conventional treatment techniques can be attributed to the efficient, safe, and targeted approach of neurostimulation devices. BIS Research recently published a market intelligence report titled “ Global Neurostim...

Vertical Farming Market Strategy and Growth Factor Report 2020-2026

With the exponential growth of the global population, the subsequent increase in global food demand, the decrease in agricultural land, and the depletion of limited natural resources, the need to improve agricultural yield has become critical. The upsurge in the urban population in developing countries, with improved quality of living due to high-income levels and the demand for fresh farm produce and animal protein, is bolstering the demand for crop production. The finite presence of natural resources, such as arable land and fresh water, along with falling farm yield trends in many crop categories, have encouraged crop producers and agricultural companies to introduce innovative and advanced agriculture alternatives to boost farm profitability. Read Report Overview: https://bisresearch.com/industry-report/vertical-farming-market.html Concerning the growing world population and the rising food sufficiency demand, the limited land resources won’t be sufficient to feed the ...
