DHEAs: dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, PCOS: polycystic ovary syndrome, OX1Ra: orexin-1 receptor antagonist, OX2Ra: orexin-2 receptor antagonist, NK1Ra: neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist. The data are presented as median (min, max). *P ≤ 0.05 and ^#P ≤ 0.05 compared to the control group by the Tukey’s test. ^$P ≤ 0.05 and ^&P ≤ 0.05 compared to the PCOS control group by the Tukey’s test
