Dr. Proctor summarizes the current research literature describing Gulf War (GW) veterans' health issues, particularly as they pertain to chemical sensitivity (CS) and multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) syndrome. In several studies of GW veterans, using differing criteria and varying assessment measures for CS and MCS, the prevalence rates for CS are reported to be 36-86% in Department of Veterans' Affairs patient populations and 0.8-20% in general cohorts of GW veterans. The rates of MCS are 2-6%. Targeted research is needed to adequately evaluate GW veterans' health concerns and MCS.
普罗克特博士总结了当前描述海湾战争退伍军人健康问题的研究文献，尤其是与化学物质敏感（CS）和多重化学物质敏感（MCS）综合征相关的问题。在几项针对海湾战争退伍军人的研究中，对CS和MCS采用了不同的标准和评估方法，据报告，退伍军人事务部患者群体中CS的患病率为36%至86%，而在海湾战争退伍军人的一般队列中为0.8%至20%。MCS的患病率为2%至6%。需要有针对性的研究来充分评估海湾战争退伍军人的健康问题和MCS。
