Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c71035) has announced the addition of "Japanese Patient Population Analysis and Epidemiological Survey 2007 Volume 4" to their offering.

Understanding epidemiology in individual countries is an essential factor for the development of strategic business plans for healthcare industries and life insurance companies. We are devoted to the issuance of epidemiology-related publications for Japan, while sponsoring seminars on this specific topic since 1995. As a part of this consecutive effort, we made revisions to our proprietary Japanese report entitled "Patient Population Analysis and Epidemiological Survey" every three years, which is compiled based on the Japanese MHLW's statistics, combined with other epidemiological information.

This English written report "Japanese Patient Population Analysis and Epidemiological Survey 2007" aims to provide international companies and organizations with useful information about the Japanese healthcare market. Comprising a total of five volumes, these publications provide nationwide Japanese patient population statistics for all categories of diseases.

This book is designed to benefit people who are involved in searching patient population aiming to assess relevant markets in Japan including:

- Pharmaceutical companies
