The publication “Protective effects of hydrogen-rich saline on necrotizing enterocolitis in neonatal rats.” is organized in H2HUBB under the research focus hydrogen gastrointestinal study 2013 sheng. The publication is cited as Sheng Q, Lv Z, Cai W, Song H, Qian L, Wang X, Journal of pediatric surgery, 2013. This animal study examined Protective effects of hydrogen-rich saline on necrotizing enterocolitis in neonatal rats. The abstract describes Rat model; sample size 11; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen-rich saline. The abstract reports: HRS showed beneficial effects on neonatal rats with NEC via decreasing oxidative stress, increasing antioxidant capacity, suppressing inflammation, and preserving mucosal integrity. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.
Hydrogen gastrointestinal study 2013 sheng overview
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that hydrogen-rich saline (HRS) might have protective effects on the development of necrotizing enterocolitis… Animal research can identify biological effects and support future investigation, but it cannot by itself establish safety or effectiveness in humans.
Study design and hydrogen intervention
Publication type: Animal study. Evidence type: Preclinical animal evidence. Research model or population: Rat model. Sample size: 11. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.
Delivery method: Hydrogen-rich saline.
Reported findings and scientific interpretation
For this hydrogen gastrointestinal study 2013 sheng, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: HRS showed beneficial effects on neonatal rats with NEC via decreasing oxidative stress, increasing antioxidant capacity, suppressing inflammation, and preserving mucosal integrity.
These findings should be interpreted as one piece of evidence rather than as a stand-alone medical conclusion. Results can be influenced by the research model, study design, treatment protocol, sample size, outcome selection, statistical methods, and whether the findings have been independently reproduced.
How this research record was prepared
H2HUBB organizes bibliographic details, study design information, intervention data, outcomes, limitations, and safety notes from the available scientific source. Automated classification supports database organization, but it does not replace critical reading of the complete paper. Source identifiers, evidence labels, and delivery-method fields are retained so readers can verify the record and compare it with related publications. A missing field means the information was unavailable or not reported in the structured source; it should not be treated as a negative finding.
Limitations, safety, and original source
Limitations: Preclinical animal findings may not translate directly to human outcomes.
Safety: The abstract did not provide detailed safety or adverse-event information.
