clip collision

Literally.

"Straight clips with short blades should be preferred to avoid narrowing of the surgeon's view and a collision between the clips"

NB: "Clip collision" versus "Collision of the clip/s"...

Which is "better": "limitations of the study" or "study limitations"?
I've just use the latter, simply for its brevity, in an academic paper I'm translating right now. On other occasions I might have used the longer version, for whatever reason, for example text flow. Unless there are strict guidelines to follow, for example imposed by the client or the target publication, I think this kind of stylistic issue is pretty subjective.
