| Prior HSI | 8.41 (5.18, 13.66) | <0.001 |
| Prior Lower Extremity Surgery | 0.80 (0.38, 1.70) | 0.57 |
| Total Force (N/kg) ‡ | 0.99 (0.93, 1.05) | 0.74 |
| Force Asymmetry (unit=10%) ^ | 1.35 (0.87, 2.09) | 0.23 |
Univariable models were performed separately for each variable of interest to detect an association with HSI. Models accounted for repeated measures within athlete.
Basketball was removed from this model due to no HSI observed during study period
