In Britain, on the other hand, some of the most stimulating, and apparently postmodern, work of the 1980s and '90s that of Marilyn Strathern, for example—focused on classic social anthropological themes such as kinship, property, the utility of notions of society and culture, and the possibilities and limitations of comparison.
Secondly, in reference to the specific years of the DHS data, we recognize the limitation of comparison of data across countries from different years.
This study applied direct measurement of GFR, namely [Tc99m] DTPA clearance, and the conclusions are not influenced by limitation of comparison to CrCl estimations from 24-h urine collections.
Other limitations include various interpretations of the given criteria [ 4- 10], heterogeneous time frames of observation [ 4- 9], limitation of comparison to changes in sCr not including GFR thresholds [ 4- 6, 8- 10], unknown RRT rates [ 4- 6, 10], and finally the lack of sufficient number of patients to determine relevant differences [ 7, 9, 10].
Another limitation of comparisons across studies is the suboptimal degree of interobserver agreement on histopathological assessment of gastric biopsies, even among expert pathologists adhering to the Sydney system.
One limitation of comparisons across results from different studies is that the patient populations might not be completely comparable regarding characteristics such as age, sex and co-morbidity.
Thus, we overcame the limitation of comparisons across different platforms, generally regarded as problematic from a biological perspective because the measurements may represent different physical quantities [ 21].
A known limitation of comparisons of reported haemostatic responses is that the definition given to each of the treatment outcomes often differs between trials and is largely subjective [ 14].
We discuss the interpretation of these results and the issues they raise in terms of the potential and limitations of international comparison.
One of the limitations of the comparison of Finnish and Japanese patient data is that all the MRI results published were carried out in Japan.
Overall, these results are consistent with an abnormality of presynaptic dopaminergic pharmacology in TS, but the limitations of this comparison must be acknowledged.
