Evidence for an association between dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and nonfatal, premature myocardial infarction in males.

Abstract

Our conclusions are limited by the retrospective nature of this study. However, these data indicate that serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels are inversely related to premature myocardial infarction in males and that this association is independent of the effects of several known risk factors for premature myocardial infarction.
