Each H2HUBB study page organizes source-linked research details for educational use. Interpretation should remain proportional to the study design, population, controls, and limitations.

The publication “Nuclear factor-κB/Bcl-XL pathway is involved in the protective effect of hydrogen-rich saline on the brain following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rabbits.” is organized in H2HUBB under the research focus hydrogen neurological study 2013 zhuang. The publication is cited as Zhuang Z, Sun XJ, Zhang X, Liu HD, You WC, Ma CY, Zhu L, Zhou ML, Shi JX, Journal of neuroscience research, 2013. This animal study examined Nuclear factor-κB/Bcl-XL pathway is involved in the protective effect of hydrogen-rich saline on the brain following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rabbits. The abstract describes Rabbit model; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen-rich saline. The abstract reports: Correspondingly, TUNEL staining demonstrated obvious neuronal apoptosis following SAH. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.
Hydrogen neurological study 2013 zhuang overview
Here we investigated the role of H2 in EBI following SAH, focusing on the NF-κB pathway. 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: Rabbit model. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.
Delivery method: Hydrogen-rich saline.
Reported findings and scientific interpretation
For this hydrogen neurological study 2013 zhuang, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: Correspondingly, TUNEL staining demonstrated obvious neuronal apoptosis following SAH.
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.
