Epidemiology: Social Anxiety Disorder – Highly co-morbid anxiety disorder will continue to remain a significant public health burden

In 2011, Datamonitor estimates that there were approximately 19.098 million men and women with SAD in the seven major markets (the US, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK), and more than three quarters of these cases (79%) were found in the US alone.
Features and benefits
  • Gain insight into market potential, including a robust 10-year epidemiology forecast of social anxiety disorder prevalent cases.
  • Understand the key epidemiologic risk factors and co-morbidities associated with SAD.
Highlights
Datamonitor estimates that the prevalence of SAD in the seven major markets is highest among US adults aged 20–29 years and also 30–39 years; both age groups are projected to have a significant increase in the number of prevalent cases during the forecast period, according to Datamonitor forecasts.
Prevalent cases of SAD in adults aged 20–29 and 30–39 years in the five major EU markets (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK) and Japan will remain relatively stable throughout the forecast period.
Your key questions answered
  • What are the most robust sources for social anxiety disorder prevalence data?
  • How will the patient population change over the next decade in the seven major markets?
  • What are the major co-morbid conditions with SAD that contribute to the severity of the disorder?
  • How will the proposed changes to the current SAD diagnostic criteria affect the total prevalence of SAD near the end of the forecast period?

Although SAD onset is typically in early adolescence, clinical diagnosis may be up to a decade after disease onset
Like other anxiety disorders, SAD is typically more prevalent in women than men
SAD is highly co-morbid with other psychiatric disorders
Up to 20% of people with an eating disorder also have SAD
Drug and alcohol dependence are common among those with SAD
Familial environmental factors affect SAD development
Family history may increase risk of SAD threefold

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Meagre growth for soft drinks in 2011
The Austrian soft drinks market has been affected by maturity over the review period and 2011 was characterised by only meagre growth in both value and volume terms. 2010 was a recovery year for the industry following 2009 recession, however 2011 showed slower performance once again. The off-trade channel continued to grow at the expense of the on-trade, mainly driven by the on-going cocooning trend. Within the overall soft drinks market, it was RTD coffee, followed by sports and energy drinks that showed the strongest performance in 2011. RTD tea, on the other hand, was the big loser in 2011.
Growing health awareness causes shift within soft drinks
The health and wellness trend continued to affect consumption patterns and fuel demand for healthier beverages in 2011. Increasing health-consciousness due to campaigns sponsored by the government and health professionals, prompted Austrian consumers to switch to healthier dietary alternatives and to increase their intake of fruit and vegetables. While bottled water and fruit/vegetable juice benefitted from this trend, carbonates suffered due to the unhealthy image associated with this type of beverage.
Coca-Cola remains top dog in soft drinks in Austria
The top player in the Austrian soft drinks market remained the multinational Coca-Cola Austria GmbH. The company derives its strong position from its successful brands in almost all niches of carbonates and bottled water. It is also present in other categories, such as RTD tea and fruit/vegetable juice. Coca-Cola continued to fuel consumer demand through constant new product developments and launches, as well as its extensive marketing and sales activities. Furthermore, it benefits from high consumer awareness and great brand loyalty.
Discounters lose share to hypermarkets
Discounters’ bloom seems to have come to an end in 2011, as the channel lost share to hypermarkets for the first time. While the economic recovery was partially responsible for bringing consumers back to branded products, it was mainly heavy price promotions in hypermarkets that undermined discounters’ competitive edge, namely price. This increasingly allowed consumers to buy branded soft drinks products at similar or even the same prices as offered by discounters. Additionally, retailers push on private label development poses another threat to discounters.
Stagnation looms over Austrian soft drinks market
Total volume sales of soft drinks in Austria are expected to struggle to grow over the forecast period due to the high maturity of the market. Total volume sales are even expected to slightly decline towards 2016. There will be limited growth opportunities for soft drinks in terms of volume. Nevertheless, total value growth may still be achieved through value-added, healthier and more premium products. Within overall soft drinks, there will also still be pockets of volume growth for categories that respond to the future key trends of convenience and health, such as bottled water, sports and energy drinks, RTD coffee and concentrates. In general, fortified/functional products are expected to be among the strongest growing over the forecast period.

Clinical Laboratory Testing Volume 2: Key Players for Laboratory Testing, Business Trends and Strategies

Clinical laboratory testing is one of the most important sectors of medical care. Although it is generally involved in over 70% of medical diagnoses, it accounts for less than 5% of overall healthcare expenditures. 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, urine and saliva. This TriMark Publications report describes the specific segments of the clinical laboratory testing business and the strategies used by laboratory companies to develop new business opportunities. The study presents emerging business practices and analyzes the partnerships and alliances that various key sector players have forged or could forge in the near future. New clinical laboratory business methods are also examined to identify lead positions and potential future growth areas. Moreover, the report profiles leading companies in the clinical laboratory industry, with a primary focus on companies that actively analyze and market laboratory data.

Telecom Network APIs 2012 - 2016

Overview:

Telecom Network APIs capitalize on existing network infrastructure to create a vast array of business opportunities for carriers worldwide. In essence, these APIs allow carriers to disseminate a wealth of internal information or resources to third parties.  This could entail everything from network QoS for video service delivery to Subscriber Data Management (SDM) for advertising and profiling, the goal being to enable third party developers to offer services in return for revenues.

Today nearly 9 % of all Web and 5 % of all mobile applications utilize APIs. This figure is expected to increase to over 68 % by the end of 2016, driven by growing investments from the vendor, developer and the carrier community. As a consequence, the Telecom Network APIs market is expected to account for nearly $ 75 Billion in global revenues worldwide by 2016, growing at a CAGR of 37 % between 2012 and 2016.

This report provides an in-depth assessment of the global Telecom Network APIs market, including business models, value chain analysis, operator and vendor strategies and a quantitative assessment of the industry from 2012 till 2016.
