Observational analysis revealed a positive association between oxidative balance score and HRQoL among adults, indicating its potential for tailored health interventions.
Key Points
Higher oxidative balance score is linked to improved health-related quality of life outcomes.
Each 1-point increase in oxidative balance score is associated with a 1.02-fold increase in median HRQoL index.
Men show a favorable oxidative balance with antioxidants, while women have lower pro-oxidant exposure.
Socioeconomic factors such as income quintiles impact health-related quality of life alongside oxidative balance.
