Multivariable generalized estimating equation model to determine the association between eccentric strength (between limb maximum force asymmetry) and subsequent hamstring strain injury (HSI), while controlling for sex, age, and prior HSI.*
| OR (95% CI) | p-value | |
|---|---|---|
| Force Asymmetry (Unit=10%) ^ | 1.32 (0.84, 2.08) | 0.23 |
| Female Sex | 0.65 (0.36, 1.17) | 0.15 |
| Age | 0.80 (0.65, 0.98) | 0.03 |
| Prior HSI | 9.12 (5.44, 15.29) | <0.001 |
Models accounted for repeated measures within athlete.
Unit represents the unit increase used for interpretation of odds ratio and 95% CI. Unit = 1 if not otherwise specified.
