H2HUBB TAKEAWAY

The researchers found hydrogen-rich solutions treatment groups showed the decreased MDA, MPO, IL-6 and TNF-α levels, and increased SOD, IL-10 comparing with those of non-hydrogen solutions administration groups. These results are preclinical and suggest molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential in the condition studied. Further human research is needed to establish clinical effectiveness.

What the Researchers Studied

The study examined rats.

How Molecular Hydrogen Was Used

Molecular hydrogen was administered as evidence showed that hydrogen inhibited inflammation and reduced oxidative damage. here the researchers tested the hypothesis whether hydrogen rich ringer's, pentoxifyline and hypertonic saline solutions increase the benefit in protecting small intestine from injury in uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock rat model. the researchers found hydrogen-rich solutions treatment groups showed the decreased mda, mpo, il-6 and tnf-α levels, and increased sod, il-10 comparing with those of non-hydrogen solutions administration groups.

Authors’ Conclusion

The authors concluded that these three hydrogen-rich solutions can protect intestinal injure after uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.
