What is Tendinopathy?
Tendinopathy describes a complex multifaceted pathology of the tendon, characterized by pain, decline in function and reduced exercise tolerance. The most common overuse tendinopathies involve the rotator cuff tendon, medial and lateral elbow epicondyles, patellar tendon, gluteal tendons and the Achilles tendon.

What is Hyperphosphatemia?
Hyperphosphatemia is a condition that is characterized by an increased level of phosphate in the blood. It is a symptomatic effect/condition of another major underlying cause. The normal range for phosphorous is 2.5-4.5 mg/dL. Normal values may vary from laboratory to laboratory. It can result from the enhanced concentration of phosphate intake, decreased phosphate excretion, or a disorder that shifts intracellular phosphate to extracellular space. However, as mentioned above elevated phosphate levels are less commonly associated with morbidity in patients with this disorder than with an underlying disease.

What is Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy?
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle (myocardium) becomes abnormally thick (hypertrophied). HCM occurs if heart muscle cells enlarge and cause the walls of the ventricles (usually the left ventricle) to thicken.

What is Glaucoma?
What is Glaucoma? Glaucoma is a disease that damages the eye’s optic nerve. It usually happens when fluid builds up in the front part of the eye. That extra fluid increases the pressure in eye, damaging the optic nerve. The condition is a leading cause of blindness for people over 60 years old. But blindness from glaucoma can often be prevented with early treatment.

What is Ocular Hypertension Market?
What is Ocular Hypertension? Ocular hypertension is defined as elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) without evidence of structural or functional damage by standard clinical tests. The patient with OHT must have open angles and no evidence of an ocular or systemic cause of the elevated IOP. Although genetic influences on IOP are being uncovered, genetic testing does not yet influence the diagnosis of OHT. Many different thresholds have been used to define OHT.

What is Atopic Dermatitis?
Atopic dermatitis (AD), also known as atopic eczema, is a type of inflammation of the skin (dermatitis). It results in itchy, red, swollen, and cracked skin. Clear fluid may come from the affected areas, which often thickens over time. While the condition may occur at any age, it typically starts in childhood with changing severity over the years. In children under one year of age much of the body may be affected. As children get older, the back of the knees and front of the elbows are the most common areas affected. In adults the hands and feet are the most commonly affected areas. Scratching worsens symptoms and affected people have an increased risk of skin infections. Many people with atopic dermatitis develop hay fever or asthma.

What is Pulmonary Sarcoidosis?
Sarcoidosis is a rare condition that causes small patches of red and swollen tissue, called granulomas, to develop in the organs of the body. It usually affects the lungs and skin. Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease in which the immune system overreacts, causing clusters of inflamed tissue called "granulomas" to form in different organs of the body. Sarcoidosis most commonly affects the lungs and lymph nodes, but it can also affect the eyes, skin, heart and nervous system. Sarcoidosis is a rare disease.

What is ARDS?
What is the ARDS? Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive disease occurring in critically ill patients. The major complication in ARDS is marked by leakage of fluid into the lungs, making breathing difficult or impossible. Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common condition characterized by acute severe hypoxia that is not due to left atrial hypertension.

What is Graft Versus Host Disease?
Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is an immune condition that occurs when immune cells (T cells) after transplant procedures from the donor (known as the graft or graft cells) attack the recipient patient host’s tissues (healthy cells); the disease is a side effect that is common after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (stem Cell Transplantation).

What is CAR-T?
What is CAR-T Pipeline? CAR-T is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient’s blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient’s cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion. CAR T-cell therapy is used to treat certain blood cancers, and it is being studied in the treatment of other types of cancer. Also called chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.
