Additionally, the sample were predominantly white, older and in remission, which means that the findings cannot be generalised to other populations.
Additionally, this small sample is from one geographical area, which means that the findings cannot be generalised to the Australian population as a whole [ 60].
However, hypermethylation has been observed in only 17% of colon cancer clinical specimens, which indicates that this phenomenon is real but cannot be generalised (Aguilera et al, 2006).
The notable difference between the instantaneous and kinematic cases, which was observed for the Satake et al. model, cannot be generalised for other inversion-based slip distributions.
Finally, our results cannot be generalised beyond the clinical contexts in which our study took place.
We recognise the limitations of this study which was a qualitative study across several sites in Kenya hence the results presented cannot be generalised to the whole of the Kenyan population or other sub-Sahara African countries.
For some biomarkers, a threshold value can be determined, which allows a simple binary interpretation, but inevitably results in loss of precision; however, this approach cannot be generalised.
