Circadian Profile of Salivary Melatonin Secretion in Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy

<div>The melatonin secretion model. The solid line shows the curve-shaped function approximating the melatonin secretion with the following parameters: <i>b</i><sub>1</sub> is the melatonin release amplitude; <i>b</i><sub>2</sub> is DLMO<sub>50E</sub>; <i>b</i><sub>3</sub> is the minimum melatonin concentration; and dotted line is the minimum melatonin concentration level.</div>
