Clinical analyses have shown that injuries and pain linked specifically to fencing training/competition were prevalent in 92.8% of fencers. Patellofemoral pain is the most common chronic injury in athletic populations and females are considered to be more susceptible to this pathology. This study aimed to examine gender differences in patellofemoral contact forces during the fencing lunge. Patellofemoral contact forces were obtained from eight male and eight female club level epee fencers using an eight-camera 3D motion capture system and force platform data as they completed simulated lunges. Independent t-tests were performed on the data to determine whether gender differences in patellofemoral contact forces were present. The results show that females were associated with significantly greater patellofemoral contact force parameters in comparison with males. This suggests that female fencers may be at greater risk from patellofemoral pathology as a function of fencing training/competition.
临床分析表明，92.8%的击剑运动员存在与击剑训练/比赛相关的损伤和疼痛。髌股疼痛是运动员群体中最常见的慢性损伤，女性被认为更容易患这种疾病。本研究旨在探讨击剑弓步过程中髌股接触力的性别差异。使用八台摄像机的3D运动捕捉系统和力平台数据，获取了八名男性和八名女性俱乐部级别的重剑击剑运动员在完成模拟弓步时的髌股接触力。对数据进行独立t检验，以确定髌股接触力是否存在性别差异。结果表明，与男性相比，女性的髌股接触力参数明显更大。这表明，由于击剑训练/比赛，女性击剑运动员患髌股疾病的风险可能更高。
