Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of mental health problems and functional impairment among active component and National Guard soldiers 3 and 12 months following combat in Iraq.

TL;DR: The prevalence rates of PTSD and depression after returning from combat ranged from 9% to 31% depending on the level of functional impairment reported, and the high comorbidity with alcohol misuse and aggression highlights the need for comprehensive postdeployment screening.
Journal ArticleDOI

The prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in US combat soldiers: a head-to-head comparison of DSM-5 versus DSM-IV-TR symptom criteria with the PTSD checklist

TL;DR: Clinicians need to consider how to manage discordant outcomes, particularly for service members and veterans with PTSD who no longer meet criteria under DSM-5, as the new PTSD symptom criteria do not seem to have greater clinical utility, and a high percentage of soldiers who met criteria by one definition did not meet the other criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

PTSD Treatment for Soldiers After Combat Deployment: Low Utilization of Mental Health Care and Reasons for Dropout

TL;DR: Treatment reach for PTSD after deployment remains low to moderate, with a high percentage of soldiers not accessing care or not receiving adequate treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stigma, Negative Attitudes About Treatment, and Utilization of Mental Health Care Among Soldiers

TL;DR: It is found that negative attitudes about treatment inversely predicted treatment seeking among soldiers previously deployed to Afghanistan or Iraq and the need for policy aimed at reducing negative attitudes toward mental health treatment is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mild traumatic brain injury (concussion) during combat: lack of association of blast mechanism with persistent postconcussive symptoms.

TL;DR: Blast mechanism of concussion was inconsistently associated with PCS, depending on the definition of concussion utilized, and a self-reported history of blast mechanism was not associated with persistent PCS for the majority of US soldiers with concussions.
