Approximately 13% of 654 Reserve Component Gulf War veterans (18% women, 65% ground forces, between 24 and 61 years of age, average 40.2 yr.) surveyed in the Ohio Desert Storm Research Project reported that they had probably been exposed to nerve or mustard gas agents, while another 32% thought such exposures were possible. Reports of exposure were found, through ordinary least squares regression analysis, to be associated with membership in ground forces (Army/Marine Corps) (b = .29), geographical location (b = .17), ethnic minority status (b = .07), education (b = -.10), intrinsic religiosity (b = .10), and also reporting having had physiological reactions to vaccines or pyridostigmine bromide pills (b = .24). Reports were not associated significantly with subjective health before the war, age, or sex.
在俄亥俄沙漠风暴研究项目中接受调查的654名海湾战争后备役军人（18%为女性，65%为地面部队，年龄在24岁至61岁之间，平均40.2岁）中，约13%报告称他们可能接触过神经毒气或芥子气制剂，另有32%认为有可能接触过此类毒气。通过普通最小二乘法回归分析发现，接触报告与地面部队（陆军/海军陆战队）成员身份（b = 0.29）、地理位置（b = 0.17）、少数族裔身份（b = 0.07）、教育程度（b = -0.10）、内在宗教信仰（b = 0.10）以及报告对疫苗或溴化吡啶斯的明片有生理反应（b = 0.24）有关。接触报告与战前主观健康状况、年龄或性别无显著关联。
