OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether endogenous steroid
hormone levels are associated with depressed mood in community‐dwelling older women …

Background: Clinical studies of endogenous concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone
(DHEA) and its sulfated conjugate DHEA-S in depression are limited. This study was …

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate, DHEA-S, are plentiful adrenal steroid
hormones that decrease with aging and may have significant neuropsychiatric effects. In this …

Background: Previous reports have found low levels of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate
(DHEA-S) in association with physical illness, and with frailty in the elderly. In a preliminary …

Background: Though among the most abundant human steroid hormones, the physiologic
role of dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate (DHEAS) is not known. Our goal was to …

Ninety-four institutionalized subjects (mean age 82.9 years; 13 men and 81 women) were
assessed for serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) levels. The mean value was …

Previous studies have shown the normal range of plasma dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate
(DHEAS) for independent community men over 60 years old to be 30–200 μg/dL. In human …

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate form (DHEAS) have been the focus of
considerable publicity because of their demonstrated associations with a broad range of …

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), an androgenic steroid hormone, exhibits an age-related
decline. Perimenopausal women have only approximately 50% of peak DHEA levels …

Objective To examine the age-related and sex-specific rates and determinants of change in
endogenous dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) levels in older community …
