Overview

The TRAIL-W study examines knee health in female runners, highlighting gendered factors influencing outcomes.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore how female-specific health, psychological, and social factors affect knee health in women runners.
  • Prospective cohort study design building off the TRAIL cohort study.
  • Participants complete the TRAIL-W survey assessing psychological, social, and female-specific health factors.
  • Laboratory assessments to measure body composition, bone mineral density, and blood biomarkers.
  • Qualitative interviews with selected women to understand their health experiences related to running.
  • Anticipated findings will highlight associations between female-specific health factors and knee health.
  • Expectations of identifying differences in knee health impacts compared to male runners.
  • Insights will be gained on the role of psychological and social factors affecting running-related pain and injury in women.
