Title: Not so safe for the ladies?
Post by: CyclingSid on April 20, 2021, 07:05:10
Stumbled on the following paper (for work) in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health; Sex-based differences in helmet performance in bicycle trauma
https://jech.bmj.com/content/early/2021/04/06/jech-2020-215544 (https://jech.bmj.com/content/early/2021/04/06/jech-2020-215544) you will need academic/library access for the full text, but you get the gist of it with out the full statistical text. Comes from Yale Medical School, so the researchers have a good background.

Seems to have been missed by the cycling press that I have noticed. Be interesting if there were any views from helmet manufacturers.
