    Summary · context
    A total of sixteen subjects, 9 telecommuters (2 males, 7 females; age, 37.1±2.6 years) and 7 office workers (3 males, 4 females; age, 37.3±3.0 years) who provided their informed consent were enrolled in this prospective observational study.
    Summary · context
    Saliva components were analyzed by ELISA for cortisol, melatonin, s-IgA, and oxytocin.
