|
Jacobson IG, White MR, Smith TC, Smith B, Wells TS, Gackstetter GD, Boyko EJ, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Findings illustrate that a relatively young adult occupational cohort of military personnel using CAM therapies also report multiple comorbidities which may indicate chronic illness management and poorer overall health. |

| Postcards Encourage Participant Updates | Epidemiology | 2009 Mar;20(2):313-4 |
|
Welch KE, LeardMann CA, Jacobson IG, Speigle SJ, Smith B, Smith TC, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team The results of this study quantify and confirm that semiannual appreciatory contact is an effective way to maintain communication with a highly mobile participant population while prompting updates of contact information. |

| Disordered Eating and Weight Changes After Deployment: Longitudinal Assessment of a Large US Military Cohort | American Journal of Epidemiology | 2009 Feb;169(4):415-27 |
|
Jacobson IG, Smith TC, Smith B, Keel PK, Amoroso PJ, Wells TS, Bathalon GP, Boyko EJ, Ryan MAK for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Deployed women who reported combat exposures represent a subgroup at higher risk for developing eating problems and weight loss postdeployment compared with deployed women who did not report combat exposures. |
||
| PTSD Prevalence, Associated Exposures, and Functional Health Outcomes in a Large, Population-Based Military Cohort | Public Health Report | 2009 Jan;124:90-102 |
|
Smith TC, Wingard DL, Ryan MAK, Kritz-Silverstein D, Slymen DJ, Sallis JF, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Findings suggest a 2% prevalence of current PTSD symptoms in the US Military that are associated with increased reporting of exposures and decrements in functional health. |
||
| Cigarette Smoking and Military Deployment: A Prospective Evaluation | American Journal of Preventive Medicine | 2008 Dec;35(6):539-46 |
|
Smith B, Ryan MAK, Wingard DL, Patterson TL, Slymen DJ, Macera CA, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Findings suggest an increase in smoking initiation and recidivism among deployers and highlight the importance of prevention strategies pre, during, and post deployment. |
||
| Military Combat Deployment and Alcohol Use Reply | Journal of the American Medical Association | 2008 Dec;300(22):2607 |
|
Jacobson IG, Smith TC, Bell NS Highlights the utility of CAGE screening questions for use as controlling factors for those with potential problems using alcohol at baseline. |
||
| Alcohol Use and Alcohol-Related Problems Before and After Military Combat Deployment | Journal of the American Medical Association | 2008 Aug;300(6):663-75 |
|
Jacobson IG, Ryan MAK, Hooper TI, Smith TC, Amoroso PJ, Boyko EJ, Gackstetter GD, Wells TS, Bell NS, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Findings suggest that Reserve and National Guard personnel and younger service members who deploy with reported combat exposures are at increased risk of new-onset heavy weekly drinking, binge drinking, and other alcohol-related problems. |
||
| Challenges of Self-Reported Medical Conditions and Electronic Medical Records Among Members of a Large Military Cohort | BMC Medical Research Methodology | 2008 Jun;8:37 |
|
Smith B, Chu LK, Smith TC, Amoroso PJ, Boyko EJ, Hooper TI, Gackstetter GD, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team This report highlights the importance of assessing medical conditions from multiple electronic and self-reported sources. |
||
| Prior Assault and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder After Combat Deployment | Epidemiology | 2008 May;19(3):505-12 |
|
Smith TC, Wingard DL, Ryan MAK, Kritz-Silverstein D, Slymen DJ, Sallis JF, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team In contrast to hypotheses that survival from trauma represents or confers resilience, these findings suggest vulnerability to combat stress and PTSD among survivors of prior assault. |
