English term or phrase: which is a significant concern
como se puede traducir la frase expuesta?

context: Despite some success in treating depression in youth, approximately 40% of youth remain ill at the end of clinical trials and a much higher proportion have achieved incomplete recovery within the "successful" portion of the sample, which is a significant concern.

mi intento: A pesar de algunos aciertos en el tratamiento de la depresión en jóvenes, aproximadamente 40% de éstos permanecen enfermos al término de los estudios clínicos, y una proporción mucho más elevada ha logrado la recuperación incompleta dentro de la porción “exitosa” de la muestra, lo que es un referente significativo.
agradecería todos los aportes a mi traducción

un motivo de preocupación importante/ signitativo


Explanation:
OSD. Removed a previous answer due to a spelling mistake. Apologies! This is one option: I think there are various ways of putting this, and it´s just a question of what sounds good to you!

agree  David Martínez: My personal option would be "lo cual es motivo de preocupación" ("importante" might sound a little bit redundant), but that is up to your writing style.

lo cual es muy preocupante


Explanation:
La clave está en que el hecho de que los tratamientos tengan poco éxito, o que dicho éxito no sea completo, es de preocuparse.
