- Higher plasma homocysteine levels were linked to lower serum folate and vitamin B12 in both men and women.
- In men, the highest homocysteine tertile was associated with higher physical fatigue scores compared to the lowest tertile.
- In women, the highest homocysteine tertile was associated with lower motivation scores compared to the lowest tertile.
- No significant associations were found when homocysteine was analyzed as a continuous variable.
- The study's cross-sectional design suggests findings are exploratory and require further longitudinal research.
