Baseline values are reported as mean (SD). Change from baseline values are reported as mean (SEM); p values are based on comparisons of ramelteon or positive control (zolpidem, 10 mg) vs placebo. SOT refers to Sensory Organization Test; ES5, equilibrium score for condition 5; ES6, equilibrium score for condition 6; CES, composite equilibrium score for all 6 conditions.
