Abstract
In 2024, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) published a report entitled Advancing Research on Chronic Conditions in Women. A major purpose of this report was to summarize the current state of research into a series of 21 chronic conditions that affect women differently or that are more common in women. The American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) established a working group to evaluate the NASEM report's implications for women's MSK health. This perspective summarizes key research gaps identified in the NASEM report, including the lack of sex-specific data, underrepresentation of women in clinical studies, and minimal integration of MSK health with other chronic conditions. The NASEM report underscores the need for more comprehensive study designs that consider hormonal, genetic, and social determinants of health across the lifespan. In addition to osteoporosis, in this perspective, the ASBMR working group highlights emerging but poorly understood evidence of detrimental effects on musculoskeletal biology in non-MSK, chronic diseases that were identified in the NASEM report to disproportionately affect women. To advance the field, we advocate for better diagnostics, increased investment, and stronger representation of women in research studies. Addressing these gaps is critical for improving prevention, care, and outcomes for chronic conditions that uniquely or disproportionately affect women.
