Chronic debilitating conditions are a significant burden on the health of women, in part because of longer life expectancies. Evidence base for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of chronic conditions among women is underdeveloped, in large part because of a lack of intentional research on the health of women and an historical overrepresentation of men in clinical research. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will convene a committee of experts to review the literature on chronic debilitating conditions in women. The review will describe current knowledge, gaps in evidence, and provide a research agenda for the future.
