Physicians need to be aware of the potential manifestations of CMI and the need to treat them, and metabolic syndrome is a key example. There's quite a bit of literature on this condition, and there are steps physicians can encourage their patients to take — such as increased exercise, stress management and dieting to reduce abdominal fat — that can lessen its effects. - Melvin Blanchard Quotes

The military is trying to take better care of the soldiers' mental health in the field and that may have some bearing on the outcome, but I still expect to see CMI in those soldiers who are in Iraq now when they return. - Melvin Blanchard Quotes

History of psychiatric conditions prior to service appears to place veterans at a significantly increased risk of CMI. This should not be taken as an indication that CMI is all in the veteran's head: the condition has physical manifestations that are very real, including objectively defined conditions such as metabolic syndrome. - Melvin Blanchard Quotes

We're still not sure whether CMI is due to a single disease or pathological process. But this study has identified an intriguing association between CMI risk and diagnosis of depression and anxiety disorders prior to military service. - Melvin Blanchard Quotes

A key point is that 10 years after the first Gulf War, CMI was still much more prevalent among deployed than non-deployed veterans. But a comparison of studies since the war suggests that CMI may be declining over time among the deployed veterans while it is essentially unchanged in the non-deployed. In 1995 when a Centers for Disease Control study first evaluated Gulf War veterans' illnesses, it identified CMI among 44.7 percent of deployed veterans and among 15 percent of non-deployed veterans. - Melvin Blanchard Quotes
