Mortality
no changein humans1
Urinary melatonin has no effect on mortality in humans (p-trend = 0.3).
“or mortality risk (p-trend = 0.3 in the fully-adjusted model).”

Physical function
no changein humans1
Urinary melatonin has no effect on physical function in humans (p-trends: walking speed 0.4; chair stands 0.7; grip strength 0.6).
“melatonin levels were not related to physical function scores”

Urinary melatonin has no effect on cognitive function change in humans.
“there were no associations of urinary melatonin levels with other cognitive test scores, or any cognitive change scores over time.”

Digit Vigilance Test completion time
downin humans1
Urinary melatonin is associated with digit Vigilance Test completion time in humans (p-trend = 0.01; extreme-quartile means 547.1 versus 561.3 seconds, not significantly different).
“we observed a significant trend of better Digit Vigilance Test scores (ie, decreased time to completion) at baseline across increasing melatonin quartiles”
