The publication “The effects of methane and hydrogen gases produced by enteric bacteria on ileal motility and colonic transit time.” is organized in H2HUBB under the research focus injected hydrogen gastrointestinal health study 2012. The publication is cited as Jahng J, Jung IS, Choi EJ, Conklin JL, Park H, Neurogastroenterology and motility, 2012. This animal study examined The effects of methane and hydrogen gases produced by enteric bacteria on ileal motility and colonic transit time. The abstract describes Porcine model; hydrogen delivered as injected or infused hydrogen. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.
Injected hydrogen gastrointestinal health study 2012 overview
Therefore, we set out to investigate whether intestinal gases including methane and hydrogen could influence the small bowel motility and colonic transit. 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: Porcine model. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.
Delivery method: Injected or infused hydrogen.
Reported findings and scientific interpretation
For this injected hydrogen gastrointestinal health study 2012, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: Methane delayed ileal peristaltic conduction velocity by augmenting contractility. Hydrogen shortened colonic transit, and that effect was more prominent in the proximal colon than…
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.
