To describe current and future career-span health research in the US Department of Defense Millennium Cohort Study.
Collaborating with all military service branches and the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Millennium Cohort Study launched in 2001, before September 11 and the start of deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq, to conduct coordinated strategic research to determine any effects of military occupational and deployment-related exposures, on long-term health.
More than 150,000 consenting members represent demographic, occupational, military, and health characteristics of the US military. More than 70% of the first two panels have submitted follow-up questionnaires and >50% have deployed since 2001.
Prospective cohort data have identified subgroups of military populations at higher risk or more resilient to decrements in mental and physical health. Continued career span and beyond follow-up will answer long-term health questions related to military service.
描述美国国防部千禧年队列研究中的当前和未来职业跨度健康研究。
千禧年队列研究于 2001 年启动，在 9·11 事件之前，以及在阿富汗和伊拉克部署之前，与所有军种和退伍军人事务部合作，开展协调战略研究，以确定军事职业和部署相关暴露对长期健康的任何影响。
超过 150,000 名同意参与的成员代表了美国军队的人口统计学、职业、军事和健康特征。前两批调查中有超过 70%的人提交了后续问卷，并且自 2001 年以来有超过 50%的人已经部署。
前瞻性队列数据已经确定了军事人群中更容易出现心理健康和身体健康下降的高风险亚组或更有弹性的亚组。持续的职业跨度和更长远的随访将回答与兵役相关的长期健康问题。
