The publication “Hydrogen-rich water decreases serum LDL-cholesterol levels and improves HDL function in patients with potential metabolic syndrome.” is organized in H2HUBB under the research focus hydrogen water diabetes metabolic study 2013. The publication is cited as Song G, Li M, Sang H, Zhang L, Li X, Yao S, Yu Y, Zong C, Xue Y, Qin S, Journal of lipid research, 2013. This uncontrolled human study examined Hydrogen-rich water decreases serum LDL-cholesterol levels and improves HDL function in patients with potential metabolic syndrome. The abstract describes Human participants; sample size 20; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen water; reported duration 10 weeks. The abstract reports: We have found that hydrogen (dihydrogen; H2) has beneficial lipid-lowering effects in high-fat diet-fed Syrian golden hamsters. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.
Hydrogen water diabetes metabolic study 2013 overview
The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of H2-rich water (0.9-1.0 l/day) on the content, composition, and biological activities of serum… Because this is human clinical evidence, relevance depends on participant selection, controls, sample size, treatment duration, adherence, outcome measures, and replication.
Study design and hydrogen intervention
Publication type: Uncontrolled human study. Evidence type: Human clinical evidence. Research model or population: Human participants. Sample size: 20. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.
Delivery method: Hydrogen water. Dose or treatment amount: 1.0 l. Treatment duration: 10 weeks.
Reported findings and scientific interpretation
For this hydrogen water diabetes metabolic study 2013, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: We have found that hydrogen (dihydrogen; H2) has beneficial lipid-lowering effects in high-fat diet-fed Syrian golden hamsters.
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: The reported sample size was small.
Safety: The abstract did not provide detailed safety or adverse-event information.
