The publication is cited as Matsumoto A, Yamafuji M, Tachibana T, Nakabeppu Y, Noda M, Nakaya H, Scientific reports, 2013. This uncontrolled human study examined Oral ‘hydrogen water’ induces neuroprotective ghrelin secretion in mice. The abstract describes Human participants; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen water. The abstract reports: However, H₂ supplementation does not result in detectable changes in striatal H₂ levels, indicating an indirect effect. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.

Hydrogen water oral health study 2013 overview

The main outcome was not fully reported in the available structured record and should be checked against the original source. 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: Mouse model. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.

Delivery method: Hydrogen water.

Reported findings and scientific interpretation

For this hydrogen water oral health study 2013, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: However, H₂ supplementation does not result in detectable changes in striatal H₂ levels, indicating an indirect effect.

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 abstract alone may not report all methodological limitations; full-text review is required.

Safety: The abstract did not provide detailed safety or adverse-event information.

This H2HUBB page is an educational research record, not medical advice. Review the original scientific source for the complete methods and results. Continue exploring the H2HUBB Molecular Hydrogen Research Library to compare evidence types, delivery methods, and related topics.
