Celiac disease, also known as celiac sprue or gluten-sensitive enteropathy, is a genetic autoimmune disorder caused due to the body's inability to process gluten that causes damage to the small intestine. Gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, can damage the lining of the small intestine which makes it difficult for the body to absorb nutrients such as iron, fat, calcium, and folate. The immune system mistakes substances inside gluten to be a threat to the body and attacks them, in turn, causing damage to the bowel surface and hampering the body's ability to absorb nutrition. Digestion problems, dermatitis herpetiformis, abdominal pain, weight loss, musculoskeletal problems, aphthous ulcers, iron deficiency, stunted growth, tingling sensation in the leg, and missed menstrual cycles are some of the symptoms of celiac disease. The disease can lead to various complications and health problems such as miscarriage or infertility, intestinal cancer, osteoporosis, seizures, gall bladder malfunction, neurological manifestation of the disease, stunted growth in children, and birth defects. Celiac disease can also lead to various autoimmune diseases such as lupus, thyroid disease, Sjögren's syndrome, type 1 diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis. It is difficult to diagnose celiac disease in the initial stages as its symptoms are similar to those of other diseases. Various sensitive and selective blood tests such as anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies with or without IgA level and IgA anti-endomysial antibodies are used to screen the disease.

Membrane separation process is also gaining popularity in wastewater treatment applications in industries and municipalities across the world.

Home medical equipment (HME) refers to the medical devices that help to provide safe, convenience, cost effective and familiar environment to the patients. This helps in easy recovery of patients and improves their quality of life. Type of home medical equipment includes therapeutic equipment, patient monitoring equipment, mobility assist equipment and other patient support equipment. Home therapeutic equipment market is increasing at a high growth rate due to increasing incidence of chronic diseases such as respiratory disorder, cancer and kidney failure. Home therapeutic equipment includes products such as home dialysis products, home respiratory therapy equipment, home IV equipment and other home therapeutic equipment. Home medical equipment helps in reducing time spent in hospitals, nursing homes and clinics.

Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by high blood sugar level. It is caused by the improper functioning of the pancreas which secretes insulin. Diabetes is also known as diabetes mellitus. High blood sugar leads to increased thirst and hunger, and frequent urination. Lack of treatment for diabetes causes several complications such as diabetes ketoacidosis, heart disease, stroke, and kidney failures. Insulin infusion therapy is used to treat diabetes. There are three types of diabetes including type1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 diabetes, also known as insulin dependent diabetes or juvenile diabetes, is characterized by low production of insulin by the body. Some of the conditions which lead to type 1 diabetes are addisons disease, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune thyroid disease. Type 2 diabetes is the most common type of diabetes, predominant in overweight and obese people. Pancreatectomy, chronic pancreatitis, and cystic fibrosis are some of the conditions which lead to Type2 diabetes. Diabetes is treated through diabetes drugs such as insulin, metformin, and sulphonylureas. Diabetes drugs help in preventing complications and controlling blood glucose level in the blood. Some of the drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes are metformin, actos, avandia, lantus subcutaneous, and invokana. All drugs are administered orally except insulin, exenatide, liraglutide, and pramlintide. Insulin is delivered through insulin delivery devices including infusion pump, intravenous sets, insulin syringe, insulin pen, and jet injectors. Long acting, intermediate acting, short acting, and rapid acting are some of the types of insulin used to treat diabetes.

Eubiotics refers to the products that are used for maintaining optimal balance of microflora (eubiosis) in the gastrointestinal tract. It is essential for producing well-nourished animals. Eubiotics help in proper nutrient absorption required for normal working of the body. Rise in demand for animal protein products, ban on use of antibiotics and increasing living standards are the main driving forces for the growth of eubiotics market. On the basis of types of product, eubiotics market can be segmented into probiotics, organic acids, prebiotics and essential oils. Prebiotics and probiotics are the fastest growing segments in eubiotics market. Probiotics include lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. Prebiotics include inulin, Galacto-oligosaccardes (GOS) and Fructo-oligosaccarides (FOS). Organic acids and essential oils include fumaric acid, formic acid, propionic acid, organic acids and lactic acid. On the basis of livestock, eubiotics market can be segmented into pork/swine, ruminant, poultry, aquaculture and others.

Wound and tissue management refers to a process of treatment of wound and tissue with the help of wound and tissue management products and technologies. Wound and tissue management helps to treat wound to the skin and manage trauma to tissue and blood vessels during surgery. Market segmentation of wound and tissue management market includes wound closure devices, dynamic compression therapy, static compression therapy, anti-adhesion products, hemostats, advanced dressings, tissue sealants and negative wound pressure therapy. On the basis of product, wound and tissue management market can be segmented into external, internal and combined wound management. On the basis of wound closure products, wound and tissue management market can be segmented into sutures, surgical staplers, multi-fire clip appliers, single-fire clip appliers, staplers, skin closure strips, cyanoacrylate tissue adhesives skin staplers and others.

Wound debridement is a procedure to remove contaminated, dead tissue and foreign substance from a wound. Wound debridement product helps to reduce various types of microbes, toxins and other foreign material that inhibit healing of the wound. On the basis of method of debridement, wound debridement products market can be segmented into selective methods and non-selective methods. Selective methods include larvae debridement therapy or bio-surgical debridement, enzymatic or chemical debridement and autolytic debridement. Non-selective methods include mechanical debridement, ultrasound and sharp and surgical debridement. On the basis of type of wound, wound debridement products market can be segmented into acute wounds, burn wounds and chronic wounds. Acute wounds include surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, abrasions, necrotizing fasciitis, lacerations, contusions and toxic epidermal necrolysis. Burn wounds include chemical burns, electrical burns, flash burns, radiation burns and thermal burns. Chronic wounds include diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers and pressure ulcers. Process of wound care includes preparation, controlling bleeding, irrigation and cleaning, closure and infection control. Process of wound healing includes stages such as inflammatory response, coagulation cascade, vasodilation, cellular activity, debridement or cell growth and healing, scarring and fetal wound healing.
