Analyses evaluated associations between DHEAS, antioxidant levels, and demographic and metabolic characteristics, including age, sex, smoking history, creatinine, HbA1c, total cholesterol, body mass index, dietary quality, alcohol intake, physical activity, and sleep quality. Multivariable linear regression models adjusting for all antioxidants and potential confounders were conducted following square-root transformation of DHEAS.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The analytical sample comprised 747 participants (55.8% female) with a mean age of 66.0 years (SD\u2009=\u20099.64). In adjusted models, higher \u03b1-tocopherol concentrations were associated with lower DHEAS levels (\u03b2\u2009=\u2009\u22120.09; 95% CI: [\u22120.172 to \u22120.009],\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.031) whereas retinol demonstrated a positive association with DHEAS (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.081; 95% CI: [0.009\u20130.154],\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.029). None of the other antioxidants had a significant association with serum DHEAS. Increasing age, female sex, and poorer sleep quality were significantly associated with lower DHEAS concentrations. In conclusion, in older adults, serum retinol levels are positively associated with DHEAS concentrations, whereas \u03b1-tocopherol shows an inverse association. Conversely, no significant associations were observed between serum DHEAS levels and \u03b2-cryptoxanthin, total lycopene, or \u03b3-tocopherol.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02601060261483849","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T03:06:25Z","timestamp":1788491185000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Antioxidant status and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in aging: Evidence from MIDUS 3 biomarkers cohort"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6844-4036","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laith","family":"Ashour","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Liverpool John Moores University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leen","family":"Altiti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Al-Balqa Applied University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rand","family":"Khawaldeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Al-Balqa Applied University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Batool","family":"Abuqudaira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Al-Balqa Applied University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rakan Hani","family":"Wadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mu\u2019tah University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mera","family":"Jaber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Al-Hussein Salt New Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Basae'r","family":"Najadat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jordan University of Science and Technology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shaima","family":"Jaber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jordan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rand Ibrahim","family":"Awwad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mu\u2019tah University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tuqa Waleed","family":"Smadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Al-Balqa Applied University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara Jamal","family":"Mohammad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jordanian Royal Medical Services"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/2513067"},{"issue":"8","key":"e_1_3_3_3_1","article-title":"Unexpected effects of oral isotretinoin in adolescents with acne vulgaris","volume":"13","author":"Akpolat D","year":"2021","unstructured":"Akpolat D (2021) Unexpected effects of oral isotretinoin in adolescents with acne vulgaris.
