Atopic dermatitis (AD), also called atopic eczema, is a chronic, pruritic, inflammatory skin disease arising from a complex interrelationship of environmental, immunologic, genetic, and pharmacologic factors, with a characteristic phenotype and typically distributed skin lesions.

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the severe form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. Globally, the NAFLD prevalence rate is estimated to be around 25% and a significant proportion of these people are progressing to NASH.

Adhesives and sealants are the most versatile bonding agents used to make cars lighter and tougher. Adhesives are made from precise blends of resins and agents, additives used to enhance certain characteristics, depending on the end use. In automotive market, adhesives are used to manufacture engines, body components, gear boxes, safety systems, seat systems and sub-assemblies. It also helps to cut down on noise, vibration and other harshness characteristics. The global automotive adhesive market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.4%, leading to global revenue of USD 5.45Bn by 2023.

A Blockchain is a distributed digital ledger. It records transactions in a series of blocks. It exists in multiple copies, spread over multiple computers, which are called anodes. The ledger is secure because every new block of transactions is linked again to previous blocks in such a way that tampering with it is practically impossible. As it is decentralized, it does not depend on any single entity (Eg:Bank) for safekeeping. The nodes connected to the Blockchain network get updated versions of the ledger as new transactions are carried out. According to Netscribes, the global Blockchain in supply chain market is expected to have a significant compounded annual growth rate of 87.0%, and reach a market size of USD 3,314.6 Mn by 2023. North America is expected to dominate the Blockchain in Supply Chain Market during the forecast period.

Cybersecurity involves a set of techniques that are designed to protect the integrity of networks, programs, and data, from unauthorized access, cyberattacks, and damages. Of late, cyberattacks in the financial services sector have increased manifold. Cyberattacks against financial services firms increased by over 70% in 2017, which reflects that the financial services sector is currently vulnerable to such attacks. In the future, adoption of effective cyber security techniques will become a necessity to reduce the risk of cyberattacks and illegal use of systems, networks and technologies. According to Netscribes, the global cybersecurity in financial services market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.81%, leading to a global revenue of USD 42.66 Bn by 2023.

Precision medicine is an upcoming approach which involves investigating whether a person has any diseases by evaluating the genetic makeup, and then diagnosing it. According to Netscribes, the global precision medicine market is expected to have a significant compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7% and have a market size in excess of USD 96 Bn by 2023. North America dominates the global market due to the high incidence of cancer and increasing government initiatives in the region.

A self-driving car, also known as an autonomous car or driverless car, is a vehicle that uses a combination of sensors, cameras, radars and artificial intelligence (AI), to travel between destinations without the need of any human effort. To qualify as fully autonomous, a vehicle must be able to navigate without human intervention, to a predetermined destination, over roads that have not been adapted for its use. The global self-driving car market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 36.2%, leading to global revenue of USD 173.15 Bn by 2023.

2017 was another solid year for the HVAC industry, with an ongoing recovery continuing to generate solid MSD type levels of growth in residential with low to MSD growth in commercial. While both cycles are getting longer, we are somewhat more balanced around risks to the upside and downside. We see another few years of above average normalized growth in residential (MSD) as the tailwinds from the housing echo replacement boom are likely at least partially real and pent-up demand from the recession is not quite done yet, while the non-res cycle is shifting to lower growth but still has some legs left to sustain growth. The key risk item, outside of weather or a drastic shift in the US economy, is price/cost, with commodity prices rising and OEMs committing to pass through price to offset, but with some differences in timing which could cause near term hiccups to quarterly earnings. Overall, industry fundamentals remain solid and steady, with a positive setup and mostly stable competitive dynamics with little risk of disruption despite increasing technological evolution in the space.

In 2017, China added 319 new turbines installation for offshore wind power, with a capacity of 1160MW, an increase of 97% over the previous year. The cumulative installed capacity of offshore wind power showed an explosive growth, from 150MW in 2010 to 2790MW in 2017. The proportion of newly installed offshore wind power in integrated new installation increased rapidly, from 0.74% in 2010 to 5.90% in 2017.
