Study of lung illness for people who served in Southwest Asia
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is building a research database and stored samples from people who served in the Southwest Asia wars. It may help researchers learn what causes lung problems in veterans and how to better diagnose or treat them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have served in the Southwest Asia wars
- You may need to provide information about your health for the database
- You may be asked to provide samples for the biorepository (biobank)
