Epidemiologic evidence of health effects from long-distance transit of chemical weapons fallout from bombing early in the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
BACKGROUND Military intelligence data published in a companion paper explain how chemical fallout from US and Coalition bombing of Iraqi chemical weapons facilities early in the air campaign transited long distance, triggering nerve agent alarms and exposing US troops. We report the findings of a population-based survey designed to test competing hypotheses on the impact on chronic Gulf War ill...

The authors conducted factor analysis on survey data from 1,779 Persian Gulf War veterans. Their purposes were to: 1) determine whether factor analysis identified a unique "Gulf War syndrome" among veterans potentially exposed to chemical warfare agents; 2) compare the findings of factor analysis with those from an epidemiologic analysis of symptom prevalence; and 3) observe the behavior of fac...
متن کاملGulf War veterans and Iraqi nerve agents at Khamisiyah: postwar hospitalization data revisited.
Chemical warfare agents were demolished by US soldiers at Khamisiyah, Iraq, in March 1991. The authors investigated postwar morbidity for Gulf War veterans, contrasting those who may have been exposed to low gaseous levels of nerve agents and those unlikely to have been exposed. Cox regression modeling was performed for hospitalizations from all causes and hospitalizations from diagnoses within...
متن کاملThe Effects of Data Collection Method and Monitoring of Workers’ Behavior on the Generation of Demolition Waste
The roles of both the data collection method (including proper classification) and the behavior of workers on the generation of demolition waste (DW) are important. By analyzing the effect of the data collection method used to estimate DW, and by investigating how workers' behavior can affect the total amount of DW generated during an actual demolition process, it was possible to identify strat...
متن کاملIn-Situ Landmine Neutralization by Chemical versus Thermal Initiation Deminer Preferences
This paper describes currently developed chemical and thermal landmine neutralization methods under the DoD Humanitarian Demining Research and Development (HD R&D) Program. It includes a table showing the differences among current detonation or demolition techniques, and among chemical and thermal systems. Comparative elements include the neutralization mechanism; neutralization effects; time r...
