There is long‐standing evidence that naturally acquired immunity to the erythrocytic stages of malaria, which limits morbidity and mortality in older children and adults, is strongly dependent on antibody (Ab; reviewed in 1).
Its ototoxicity, however, has been noted as a common side-effect which limits its use and causes significant morbidity.
However, the clinical relevance of this subscale is not well researched [ 47], which limits its relevance in distinguishing psychiatric morbidity from the range of normal changes during pregnancy.
Conventional psychometric assessments using factor analysis and reliability estimates have obscured substantial measurement error in the GHQ-12 due to response bias on the negative items, which limits its utility as a screening instrument for psychiatric morbidity.

3. The 3 patient factors reported as most likely to make a DVT clinically important were clinical suspicion of PE, acute or chronic cardiopulmonary morbidity which might limit the tolerability of a PE, and leg symptoms.

However, bone harvesting potentially causes donor site morbidity which is a major issue for the patients who appreciate procedures that reduce morbidity [38].
