Huntington's disease is an inherited disease that causes degeneration of nerve cells in the central nervous system (CNS). The disease has a broad impact on functional abilities of the human and usually results in movement and thinking disabilities. Most people with Huntington's disease develop signs and symptoms in their age of 30 to 40. When disease begins before age 20, the condition is known as juvenile Huntington's disease.

Gastrointestinal system is made up of gastrointestinal tract and accessory organs. Gastrointestinal system is a long hollow tube that extends from your oral cavity where food enters the body, via the oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and finally to the anus where undigested food is expelled. The accessory organs include salivary glands, pancreas, gall bladder and liver. These organs help to secrete enzymes into the digestive tract. The main function of gastrointestinal tract is to process nutrients and energy from food and fluids that is ingested. Mobility and functional gastrointestinal disorders are most common gastrointestinal disorders in the population. Gastrointestinal mobility is the movement of the digestive system and the transit of the content within it. Esophageal disorders, gastro-duodenal disorders, bowel disorder and abdominal pain are some of the gastrointestinal diseases. These diseases are caused due to eating low fiber diet, stress, lack of exercise and change in routine.

A sensor is an electronic device that measures the physical quantity and converts the data into observable form. Sensors have their applications in various industries such as safety and control, telecom, healthcare, vehicle security and others. Mobile health and fitness sensors refer to the sensors that are used in healthcare industry for measuring various body parameters such as temperature, pressure, blood glucose level and others. Mobile health and fitness sensors help in collecting the healthcare-related data and maintaining their electronic records. Mobile health and fitness sensors market is growing at a significant rate due to various advantageous features offered with use of mobile health and fitness sensors, for instance reduction in errors, more accurate results, less time consuming and others. On the basis of product type, mobile health and fitness sensors market can be segmented into temperature sensor, pressure sensor, speed sensor, level/position sensor, gas sensor and others.

Meningococcal vaccines are used in the treatment of meningitis, septicemia, meningococcemia and pneumonia. Meningitis is characterized by inflammation of the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. This type of inflammation is caused by infection of bacteria, viruses and by drugs.

Mass spectrometry is a technique which is used in the identification of various types of chemical present in the sample. It is also used in the quantification of amount of specific chemical in the sample. Mass spectrometry is very common technique in analytical laboratories which helps in the study of biological and chemical properties of compounds. In life science area, mass spectrometry is primarily involved in the characterization and sequencing of proteins. It identifies and quantities crucial proteins involved in disease and altered phenotypes and recognized diagnostic biomarkers for treatment.

Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials, generally metals or thermoplastic, by causing coalescence. On the other hand, cutting is a process that is used to cut steel or other metals of different thicknesses using a different cutting equipments. Welding is often done by melting the work pieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material that cools to become a strong joint, with pressure sometimes used and heat together, to produce the weld. Welding can be done by different methods such as gas tungsten arc welding, shielded metal arc welding, submerged arc welding and gas metal arc welding. Shielded metal arc welding is also called stick welding. It uses an electrode that has flux that protects the puddle, around it. The electrode holder holds the electrode as it slowly melts away and slag protects the weld puddle from atmospheric content. Gas tungsten arc welding is also called as tungsten inert gas and it uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. Inert shielding gas such as agon or helium protects weld area from atmospheric contamination. Gas metal arc welding is also called as metal inert gas and uses a wire feeding gun that feeds wire at an adjustable speed and sprays an argon-based shielding gas and carbon dioxide over the weld puddle to protect it from atmospheric contamination. Submerged arc welding uses an automatically fed consumable electrode and a blanket of granular fusible flux. Welding and cutting equipments are mostly used by energy, automotive and construction industries. Due to the rapid industrialization demand for welding and cutting equipment has increased globally.

Hernia refers to the projection of a viscus or part of a viscus through an abnormal opening in the walls of its containing cavity. As compared to others, hernia is more common is geriatric population. Hernia may be of many types depending on its location, such as femoral hernia, umbilical hernia, paraumbilical hernia, epigastric hernia, lumber hernia and others. Different approaches may be followed for treatment of different type of hernia. Surgery is commonly recommended for treatment of most types of hernias. It is done to prevent complications such as obstruction of bowel or strangulation of tissue. Hernia repair devices refer to the medical devices that are used of treatment of hernia. The global hernia repair devices market is growing at a significant rate due to increase in the hernia cases and growing awareness for the same. On the basis of products and segments, the hernia repair devices market can be segmented into polymers, biologic materials, surgical instruments, endoscopy equipment and prosthetic mesh. On the basis of procedures, the hernia repair devices market can be segmented into open-tension repair, tension repair laproscopic tension-free repair and others.
