Low dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate

1. Low dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate predicts incident ischemic heart disease in humans (Adjusted OR 1.60, 95% CI 1.07–2.39).

   “those with serum DHEAS in the lowest quartile at baseline (<1.6 microg/ml) were significantly more likely to incur IHD by follow-up”
