A few countries permit women to serve in combat roles, but their long term performance in these positions has not been reported. The incidences of overuse injuries and attrition of 85 male and 235 female recruits in a light infantry brigade was followed in a three-year prospective study. Females were shorter (162 cm, CI 161-163 cm) than males (174 cm, CI 173-176), had more body fat (18.9 kg, CI 18.2-19.6 kg) than males (12.6 kg, 11.3-13.8 kg), had lower [Formula: see text]O2max (36.8 mL·min(-1) ·kg(-1), CI 35.8-37.78 mL·min(-1) ·kg(-1)) than males (50.48 mL·min(-1) ·kg(-1), CI 48.4 to 52.48 mL·min(-1) ·kg(-1)), had more stress fractures (21.0%, 95% CI 16.2-26.5%) than males (2.3%, CI 0.3-8.2%), and had more anterior knee pain (41.2%, CI 34.9-47.7%) than males (24.7%, CI 16.0-35.2%). Three-year attrition was 28% CI 22-34% for females and 37% CI 26-48% for males. The females in this study successfully served as light infantry soldiers. Their lower fitness and high incidence of overuse injuries might impede service as regular infantry soldiers.
一些国家允许女性担任战斗角色，但她们在这些岗位上的长期表现尚未见报道。在一项为期三年的前瞻性研究中，对一个轻型步兵旅的85名男性新兵和235名女性新兵的过度使用损伤发生率和人员损耗情况进行了跟踪。女性身高（162厘米，置信区间161 - 163厘米）低于男性（174厘米，置信区间173 - 176厘米），体脂比男性多（18.9千克，置信区间18.2 - 19.6千克）（男性为12.6千克，11.3 - 13.8千克），最大摄氧量低于男性（36.8毫升·分钟⁻¹·千克⁻¹，置信区间35.8 - 37.78毫升·分钟⁻¹·千克⁻¹）（男性为50.48毫升·分钟⁻¹·千克⁻¹，置信区间48.4至52.48毫升·分钟⁻¹·千克⁻¹），应力性骨折比男性多（21.0%，95%置信区间16.2 - 26.5%）（男性为2.3%，置信区间0.3 - 8.2%），前膝疼痛比男性多（41.2%，置信区间34.9 - 47.7%）（男性为24.7%，置信区间16.0 - 35.2%）。女性三年的人员损耗率为28%，置信区间22 - 34%，男性为37%，置信区间26 - 48%。本研究中的女性成功担任了轻型步兵士兵。她们较低的体能和较高的过度使用损伤发生率可能会妨碍她们成为常规步兵士兵。
