Geometric mean of creatinine-adjusted 6-sulfatoxymelatonin (aMT6s) urinary concentration controlled for age (40-<50, 50-<60, and 60-70); education (college+, high school, and middle school and less), BMI (<=21.1, >21.1-<=22.9, >22.9-<=25.4, and >25.4), ever alcohol consumption (ever, never), menopausal status (pre- and post-menopausal), number of live births (0-1 and 2+ children), and urinary cortisol level (<=136.5, >136.5-<=197.9, >197.9-<=297.1, and >297.1 ng/mg Cr).

Nightshift JEM score index: 1 = never had a nightshift work job in lifetime, 2 = currently did not have a nightshift work job but had one or more in the past, 3 = current job had a nightshift JEM score of 1, 4 = current job had a nightshift JEM score of 2, through 5 = current job had a nightshift JEM score of 3.

95% confidence interval.
