Sex differences in long-term outcomes after traumatic injury: A mediation analysis

Juan P. Herrera-Escobar et al.

Summary: The study found significant sex differences in long-term trauma outcomes, with female patients more likely than males to have functional limitations, use pain medications, and screen positive for PTSD. These differences were partially mediated by factors such as age, extremity injury, previous psychiatric illness, and pre-injury unemployment.
