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. |

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. |
||
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. |

Prior Health Care Utilization as a Determinant to Enrollment in a 21-Year Prospective Study, the Millennium Cohort Study | European Journal of Epidemiology | 2008 Feb;23(2):79-87 |
Wells TS, Jacobson IG, Smith TC, Spooner CN, Smith B, Reed RJ, Amoroso PJ, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Few health differences between Millennium Cohort responders and non-responders were found when comparing healthcare utilization in the 12 months preceding study invitation. |

New Onset and Persistent Symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Self-Reported after Deployment and Combat Exposures: Prospective Population-Based US Military Cohort Study | British Medical Journal | 2008 Feb;336(7640):366-71 |
Smith TC, Ryan MAK, Wingard DL, Slymen DJ, Sallis JF, Kritz-Silverstein D, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Findings define the importance of PTSD in this population and emphasize that specific combat exposures, rather than deployment itself, significantly affect the onset of PTSD symptoms postdeployment. |
||
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. |

Self-Reported Adverse Health Events Following Smallpox Vaccination in a Large Prospective Study of US Military Service Members | Human Vaccines | 2008 Mar/Apr;4(2):127-33 |
Wells TS, LeardMann CA, Smith TC, Smith B, Jacobson IG, Reed RJ, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Smallpox vaccination was not associated with any adverse self-reported health outcomes, including mental and physical functioning. These findings may be reassuring to health care providers and those who receive the smallpox vaccination. |
||
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. |
||
Baseline Self-Reported Functional Health Predicts Vulnerability to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Following Combat Deployment: Prospective US Military Cohort Study | British Medical Journal | 2009 Apr;338:b1273 |
LeardMann CA, Smith TC, Smith B, Wells TS, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Military service members who screen in the lowest 15% of health prior to combat exposure are more vulnerable to developing postdeployment PTSD. |
||
Newly Reported Respiratory Symptoms and Conditions Among Military Personnel Deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan: A Prospective Population-Based Study | American Journal of Epidemiology | 2009 Dec;170(11):1433-42 |
Smith B, Wong CA, Smith TC, Boyko EJ, Gackstetter GD, Ryan MAK, for the Millennium Cohort Study Team Elevated risk for self-reported respiratory symptoms was found among Army and Marine Corps personnel deployed in support of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. No increased risk for self-reported asthma, bronchitis, or emphysema was found. |
